3. DRM Requirements Trusted Systems that …  Secure and protect digital contents and services across the value chain  Persistently honor usage rights, conditions and obligations specified for digital contents and services A Common Language that …  Provides a uniform mechanism to describe specifications of rights and their conditions and obligations for distributing and using digital contents and services  Enables trusted systems to exchange digital contents and interoperate for end-to-end DRM

4. What is ? XrML – eXtensible rights Markup Language  Originates from Xerox PARC in 1994  Provides a universal method for securely specifying and managing rights (and associated conditions) for all kinds of resources including digital content and services  Supports content integrity and entity authentication and confidentiality within the specification  Encodes in XML, leverages standard XML schemas, namespaces, digital signatures etc.  Is highly flexible, customizable, and extensible  Is available at www.xrml.orgwww.xrml.org

5. Philosophy Underpinning Enable trusted systems to interoperate for end-to-end DRM  Single language across all media types, platforms, formats, resources, products & services to facilitate interoperability  Application/domain agnostic structure  Comprehensive to express wide variety of business models  Application to all phases of life cycle  Extensible to allow adaptability and minimize future cost of change  Ease of implementation and deployment

6. 2.0 Is Built On Standards 2.0 Is Built On Standards  XML 1.0 Specification  XML Schema  Namespaces in XML  Uniform Resource Identifiers (URI): Generic Syntax  Digital Object Identifier (DOI)  ISO 3166 Codes for representing names of countries  ISO 4217 Codes for representing currencies and funds  XML Path Language (XPath) Version 1.0

Business Models Supported in  Unlimited usage  Flat fee sale  Pay per view  Preview  Promotion  Subscription/Membership  Transfer  Gifting  Library loan  Site/volume license  Rent  Multi-tier models  Territory restricted  Component based model  User type based model  Payment to multiple Rights Holders  Superdistribution  Composite content  Personal lending

10. 2.0 Highlights 2.0 Highlights  Mathematical Precision – no ambiguity  Expressiveness – advanced business models, life-cycle management, usage state tracking, pattern matching  Well defined core and extensions architecture  Compact: Use of only those terms needed  Applications based on equality & pattern matching enable extensions without the need to upgrade  Comprehensive Security  Entity authentication (Users, software, hardware, Digital Items, etc. )  Integrity and confidentiality of rights expressions  Up-to-date Standards and Technologies

17. Tools to Support Adoption  XrML SDK released to aid developers of Content Applications that :  Create, validate, and interpret XrML licenses  Edit XrML licenses  Enable Distribution of Digital Content  Enable the Use of Digital Works per a License  SDK Documentation includes  Installation Guide  User's Guide  API Programmer's Guide  Guide to use and create XrML Templates  Available at www.contentguard.comwww.contentguard.com

18. Summary  Progress beginning on interoperable DRM standards  DRM’s full potential requires applicability across  Content centric businesses  Enterprise applications  Web services  A dynamic standard (e.g. XrML) can facilitate required extensibility  Adapt to a changing future  Reduce possibility of standards fragmentation  Digital Rights Language is an essential but only one of several initiatives needed
