Rights Management

Definitions

1. The control of who can view, copy, print, forward, or otherwise use protected digital content after it has been shared. Rights management is common in document security and media protection, where the goal is to enforce use restrictions beyond simple file access.

   In plain English: Controlling what people are allowed to do with shared digital content.

   Example: "The legal team applied rights management so the draft contract could be read internally but not forwarded or printed."
