This is a Management Primer created to inform managers on e-document security and enterprise digital rights management (E-DRM) software for protecting e-documents both inside and outside an organization.

E-DRM helps organizations comply with privacy laws and government regulations that require assurance of the validity and integrity of documents. Managers will learn about the key standards and the Adobe and Microsoft influences in the marketplace, uses and applications for E-DRM in different industries, and useful websites for additional E-DRM project research.
