Abstract

See full text

A digital rights management (DRM or RMS) method allows the operator of a scanner, connected to an RMS server, to associate a digital document with user access rights that are different from the rights defined by any of the existing DRM policies on the server. The method allows the operator to choose one of the existing policies on the server, and modify the user access rights by granting rights to additional users and/or removing rights of some users that would be granted by that policy, to generate modified user access rights for a document without changing any existing policies or adding new policies. The server stores the document ID, polity ID and the user access rights (modified or unmodified) in a rights association table on the server. The method is also applicable when importing documents into the DRM system from sources other than scanners.
