What is DRM video protection?
Digital Rights Management (DRM) systems provide you with the ability to protect copyrights for digital media. A DRM setup needs specific encoding, packaging, playback, and a license server. License servers are offered by companies such as Irdeto, EZDRM, Expressplay, and Axinom. It is also possible to build your own license servers with Google (Widevine), Microsoft (PlayReady), Adobe (PrimeTime), or Apple (Fairplay). The player can utilize the HTML5 Encrypted Media Extensions (EME) to enable DRM playback. Currently, the only DRM supported with HLS is Apple's FairPlay. DASH supports a range of third-party DRM solutions like Widevine and PlayReady via the Media Source Extensions (MSE) and Encrypted Media Extensions (EME).Actually, the most popular protection system is Google's Widevine DRM, used by major partners around the world such as Google Play, YouTube, Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime Video, HBO Max, and many more.
