Driven by an unparalleled advance in network infrastructure support as well as a boom in the number of interconnected personal
communication, computation and storage devices, the modern mobile customer experience has become increasingly compelling.
Traditional barriers between the roles of information consumer and producer have disappeared. Users increasingly produce and
distribute valuable and often personal content such as pictures and free or purchased copyrighted media. It becomes essential
to enable user-level DRM controls for content access, data integrity and rights management.
In this presentation we will overview the design and implementation of a a personal digital rights management system for mobile
devices. The Personal DRM Manager enables user-defined ORCON-type controls for personal content originating in a cell phone
or other mobile device. Users can transparently define, generate, package and migrate content licenses between mobile devices
on-demand. Networked cellular devices cooperate in the enforcement mechanisms.
