    摘要: In a system for distributing and licensing rights-managed digital content, the way in which content is distributed and licensed can be affected by the trust relationships that are established between the various servers that participate in the system. In a typical system, a license server licenses content to particular identities, and an identity server defines those identities by issuing certificates for those identities. The license server issues licenses to identities that have been issued by trusted identity servers. Also, the license server can issue a license on behalf of any entity whose private key it holds. Thus, in one embodiment, the universe of people to whom the license server can issue licenses can be expanded by adding new identity servers to the list of trusted identity servers. In another embodiment, exceptions to the general trust of an identity server can be carved out by creating an exclusion list, which excludes particular identity certificate (e.g., on the basis of e-mail address, domain name, etc.) that have been issued by a trusted identity server. In another embodiment, the universe of content for which the license server can issue licenses can be expanded by providing the license server with the private keys of other license servers.

    摘要翻译: 在分发和许可版权管理的数字内容的系统中,分发和许可内容的方式可能受到参与系统的各种服务器之间建立的信任关系的影响。 在典型的系统中,许可证服务器向特定身份许可内容,并且身份服务器通过为这些身份颁发证书来定义这些身份。 许可证服务器向受信任身份服务器颁发的身份颁发许可证。 此外,许可证服务器可以代表其所有私钥的任何实体发出许可证。 因此,在一个实施例中,可以通过将新的身份服务器添加到可信标识服务器的列表中来扩展许可证服务器可以发布许可证的人群。 在另一个实施例中,可以通过创建排除列表来排除身份服务器的一般信任的例外,该排除列表排除已经发布的特定身份证书(例如,基于电子邮件地址,域名等) 由受信任的身份服务器。 在另一个实施例中,可以通过向许可证服务器提供其他许可证服务器的私钥来扩展许可证服务器可以发布许可证的内容的Universe。
