A DRM Interoperability Architecture Based on Local Conversion Bridge with Proxy Re-Cryptography

Abstract:

Various DRM standards curb users freedom to transfer and share digital contents among rendering devices. Several interoperability schemes that accommodate devices DRM compatibility have been raised through content distribution or sharing channel, these approaches are usually implemented by domain management or third party transformation services. Most of these schemes emphasize their advantages over others on trust level, security, cost, efficiency and flexibility. Our proposal integrates previous work to maintain the basic requirement of DRM system, we stick to local third party as the foundation for interoperability, we also use proxy re-encryption scheme to protect raw content from disclosure during content translation. And we try to enhance the system by bringing in three principles: security of content encryption key, fewest participants in conversion and minimum calculation requirements for end device. Finally, Statistical demonstration is presented with comparison to other schemes in our analysis to prove performance improvements.
