How does DRM work?

Digital Rights Management (DRM) works by encrypting digital content such as music, videos, and ebooks to prevent unauthorized copying, sharing, and distribution. DRM software is used to apply these encryption techniques and manage access control to the content. When someone purchases or licenses digital content, the DRM system grants them specific usage rights, such as the ability to view or listen to the content on certain devices or for a limited time. DRM also keeps track of usage rights and enforces restrictions to prevent piracy and copyright infringement.
