Abstract

See full text

Information management is used to enforce and control rights associated with data through the use of policies implemented by a digital rights management (“DRM”) server. An information management system collects information about data objects in a computer system and classifies the data objects into one or more categories. The categories are mapped to service level objectives that include or request encryption and identify DRM policies to associate with data objects within each category. Each DRM policy identifies one or more users authorized to access data objects the DRM policy is associated with. Encryption is orchestrated, in one embodiment, by identifying a data object to the DRM server in an encryption request, and identifying a DRM policy to associate with the data object. The DRM server encrypts the data object and only allows it be decrypted by authorized users.
