Technical Features

Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks have proliferated and become ubiquitous. A school of thought has emerged that harnessing the established user-base and ease of content dissemination of such networks presents a potentially lucrative opportunity. However, content creators have been reluctant to adopt P2P networks as a distribution vehicle since these networks are plagued with piracy. This chapter focuses on developing a solution for distributing digital content in P2P networks in a way that established businesses and amateur artists alike can profit. We propose a content distribution system that employs Digital Rights Management (DRM) technologies and is independent of the underlying P2P network. Our system relies on innovative uses of security technologies to deter piracy. In addition, we include various non-technical features that encourage users to “play by the rules”.

Independent Synthesis

With the rapid popularity of P2P networks, the demand for digital rights management (DRM) in P2P mode is increasing quickly. The research on issuance of digital content licenses is the key issues in DRM. As for the centralized authorization systems, the security and the efficiency have certain defects. An improved distributed license authorization system is presented in this paper. And the nodes in the system are divided into six kinds of roles in accordance with theirs functions and a new non-interactive verifiable secret sharing protocol is introduced. Because of the adoptions of threshold secret sharing mechanism and the independent synthesis peers, the system security is improved in the transmission of digital content license and the burden of nodes is reduced in P2P networks. Each license authorization node gets the correct secret sharing by the non-interactive verifiable secret sharing protocol.
