The Internet presents a unique platform for disseminating digital content such as music, video, games, software, text, business and proprietary corporate information. It promises ubiquitous access, while at the same time fundamentally challenging the traditional rules of ownership and distribution of content. In such environment, safe protection and proper delivery of digital content would be a crucial requirement toward a new e-business model. Research on the Digital Rights Management (DRM) focuses on filling this functional vacancy of the market transition by providing a more viable business model based. XrML(eXtensible Rights Markup Language) provides a universal tool for specification of rights, fees, and issuing conditions(licenses) associated with the use and protection of digital content. ContentGuard has developed XrML to unify the Digital Rights Management(DRM) specifications and encourage interoperability. It seems that all working groups of DRM agree to use XrMl for their right description language.

In this paper, we propose a key management scheme which can provide delivery of the key used to encrypt a digital content from the package server to digital rights management (DRM) clients in a secure manner. The proposed scheme can protect digital content from attacks since an encrypted digital content is sent by a package server and only DRM clients can decrypt the encrypted digital content. It protects the key not only from purchasers but also among the other principals who manage the distribution and license servers.

As the logistic environment of digital contents is rapidly changing, the protection of the digital rights for digital content has been recognized as one of critical issues. Digital Right Management(DRM) has taken much interest Internet Service Provider(ISP), authors and publishers of digital content as an interested approach to create a trusted environment for access and use of digital resources. This paper propose an interested digital rights protection scheme using license agent to address problems facing contemporary DRM approached : static digital rights management, and limited application to on-line environment. We introduce a dynamic mission control technology to realize dynamic digital rights management. And we incorporate license agent to on- and off-line monitoring and tracking. The proposed system prevent illegal access and use by using PBD security method real time action monitoring for user, data security for itself.

Currently we have many DRM(Digital Rights Management) products but they do not provide interoperability between them. It causes user's inconvenience to use a DRM content and places restrictions to digital content distribution. DRM standardization to solve these sorts of problem has been discussed but dominant standardization which can provide DRM interoperability has not been made. In this paper, we propose DRM interoperable scheme by connection between heterogeneous DRM systems (EU) which uses export and import functions. Proposed EXIM can make a DRM content exchangeable between heterogeneous DRM systems with an open type of technology specification although they don't have to open their DRM structure.

DRM(Digital Rights Management) is a technology that manages secure distributions and copyrights of digital contents on the Internet. It is general giving the rights to use the encrypted contents that are downloaded by a simple authorization process in the existing DRM system. Once this is done you are allowed to access. In this paper, we use RTP(Real-time Transport Protocol) for end-to-end real-time data transmission. And the system is designed to make it Possible to Protect copyrights and to distribute contents with safety through periodic authentication. We implemented DRM system to stand this basis. The proposed system vests only authorized users with authority to access the license. Hence it prevents contents to be distributed and copied illegally on networks.

The web-based technology allows anybody who has access to the Internet to get all kinds of information from the World Wide Web. It brings about issues regarding intellectual property and copyright threats. After content is downloaded, no further protection is provided on the content that has been accessed. DRM (Digital Right Management) technologies came out to ensure the protection of copyrighted content and information. In this paper, we propose architecture of license-based digital rights management system for protection of contents and principles' rights such as contents creators, providers, distributors, and uses in contents distribution value-chain over Internet. This system makes on-line processing of all value-chain from creator to purchaser possible, compared with existing DRM products only supporting only limited distribution between distributor and purchaser.

MPEG-21 is an open standard framework for creation, delivery and consumption of digital content in interoperable and rights-managed and protected way. Focusing on DRM technologies, this paper covers with concept and ongoing activities of MPEG-21's parts - Digital Item Declaration which is the base unit of trade and delivery, Digital Item Identification, Intellectual Property Management & Protection, Rights Data Dictionary, Rights Expression Language, Persistent Association Technology, Event Reporting, and so on.

Internet-based distribution of digital contents provides great opportunities for producers, distributors and consumers, but it may seriously threaten users' privacy. The Digital Rights Management (DRM) systems which one of the major issues, concern the protection of the ownership/copyright of digital content. However, the most recent DRM systems do not support the protection of the user's personal information. This paper examines the lack of privacy in DRM systems. We describe a privacy policy and user's privacy preferences model that protect each user's personal information from privacy violation by DRM systems. We allow DRM privacy agent to automatically negotiate between the DRM system policy and user's privacy preferences to be disclosed on behalf of the user. We propose an effective negotiation algorithm for the DRM system. Privacy rules are created following the negotiation process to control access of the user's personal information in the DRM system. The proposed privacy negotiation algorithm can be adapted appropriately to the existing DRM systems to solve the privacy problem effectively.
