Digital rights management (DRM) refers to a set of technologies and strategies used to control access to and usage of copyrighted digital content. Its primary function is to protect intellectual property by preventing unauthorized copying, distribution, and modification of digital media such as movies, music, e-books, and software. DRM solutions aim to ensure that content creators and owners can monetize their work and maintain control over how their normal and 3D digital assets are consumed, often through encryption, licensing, and authentication mechanisms that regulate user permissions.

The South Korea digital rights management market is a vital component of its thriving digital economy, driven by high internet penetration and a sophisticated digital content industry. This market provides essential tools for protecting valuable digital assets in a country known for its advanced technology and significant consumption of online media. The continuous growth in streaming services, mobile gaming, and digital publishing creates a strong demand for robust DRM solutions to combat pervasive digital piracy and uphold intellectual property rights, ensuring content creators can secure their investments and revenue streams in this dynamic environment.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
