Abstract

Due to severe DRM failures and the urgent demand for a better solution to solve the existing DRM systems vulnerabilities, this paper discusses the current DRM status, stressing system security objectives and requirements. Based on the analysis of the developed DRM solutions and emerging state of the art DRM technologies, this paper attempts to account for the causes of DRM failures and proposes a novel DRM security paradigm. We present an experimental DRM architectural rework aiming to cope with the existing limitations and weaknesses by using novel technological breakthroughs.
