INTEROPERABLE RIGHTS MANAGEMENT
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A machine-implemented method, comprising:
- assigning access rights to content, wherein the access rights are defined as declarations;
associating the content with the declarations to create modified content; and
transporting the modified content to a target environment in accordance with a content distribution policy, wherein the modified content is subsequently decoded in the target environment and access to the content from that target environment is constrained by the declarations.

Abstract
Techniques for interoperable rights management are provided. Content is packaged with declarations defining access rights. The packaged content is delivered to a target resource in accordance with a distribution policy. When the content is accessed the access rights are enforced against the target resource within the target environment in accordance with a local access policy.

9. A machine-implemented method, comprising:
-
receiving a content packet; decoding the content packet to acquire content and declarations, the declarations including access rights; and enforcing the access rights while the content is accessed. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A machine-implemented system, comprising:
-
a content rights service implemented in a computer-readable storage medium and to process on a network; and a transport policy service implemented in a computer-readable storage medium and to process on the network; wherein the content rights service is to package content with declarations defining access rights to a piece of content, and wherein the transport policy service is to inject the packaged content into the network for delivery to a target environment in accordance with a distribution policy. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21)

22. A machine-implemented system comprising:
-
a content rights management proxy implemented in a computer-readable storage medium and to process on a network; and a content package implemented in a computer-readable storage medium and processed by the content rights management proxy; wherein the content rights management proxy receives the content package and parses the content package for content and declarations, the declaration including access rights to the content, and wherein the content rights management proxy enforces the access rights when the content is accessed by a target resource. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27)
