METHOD FOR MANAGING COPY PROTECTION INFORMATION OF RECORDING MEDIUM
First Claim
1. A method for managing copy protection information, the method comprising:
- reading copy protection information used for decrypting encrypted data, the copy protection information to be decrypted using a combination key which is a combination of a first and a second key;
decrypting the copy protection information using the combination key;
and decrypting the encrypted data using the copy protection information, wherein the first key is a private code and the second key is managed in a device and based on a key renewal information renewedly generated by a server according to changes in validity of the device.

Abstract
A method for managing copy protection information of a recording medium is disclosed. Copy protection information for decrypting A/V data encrypted and recorded in a data area of an optical disc is recorded in a key locker of the disc. Information of makers that have manufactured optical disc drives, drive maker keys of each maker and flags indicating whether drive keys are valid or not is included in association with each other in the key locker. To reproduce the A/V data, the copy protection information is read and decrypted by comparing a drive key managed in the optical disc drive with the key renewal information recorded in the optical disc. Accordingly, illegally duplicated optical disc drives can no longer perform a normal playback operation, thereby effectively suppressing illegal duplication of optical disc drives, which also prevents optical disc drives of all makers from being duplicated at once.
