DRM -- w/ the CEO of Fasoo.com

Consumer DRM--> individual who wishes to post a content online would require this.Enterprise DRM--> Makes sure secure documents are kept secureEncription vs. DRMDRM keeps control even after the file/software has been distributed to the user.The key of the lecture was on the Enterprise DRMCould EDRM be applied by a small company with ie., 10 employees? Would it be cost effective?Enterprise DRM user may feel more comfortable about working because he/she knows that he/she is not doing anything wrong or that they are under the exposure of involuntary mishap.Also, I do not know the credentials of the lady in class however, it was fascinating to know that a pdf file could be copy pasted by Ctrl A, Ctrl C, Ctrl V. I never tried Ctrl A on a pdf file because I just assumed that the pdf files were not copy-pastable. Awesome!!! Has this been the case from the flintstone days? I remember I used to scan and run OCR to capture the content, then fix the layout and make sure that all charaters are recognized. I wish I had known about this before. Sigh. :)
One month for policy settingthen consult with technicians to setup the DRMTypically takes 2-3 months for the implementation of a DRM --> based on the past 500 deals booked by Fasoo.
Systems are usuallu built with very simple policies. This is the reason why one company may have 10 different DRM systems in the company because each DRM has different boundaries.

With the DRM there is a WM (WATERMARK) with similar concept. The common point of these two branches is interests protection. And difference point the DRM is (copyright protection) to close an illegality use and the WM is (the right of ownership protection) to close an illegality reproduction.
