Abstract:
The fast development of the Web provides new ways for effective distribution of network-based
digital goods. A digital marketplace provides a platform to enable Web users to
effectively acquire, share, market
and distribute digital content. However, the success of the
digital marketplace business models hinges on securely managing the digital rights and usage
of the digital content. For example, the digital content should be only consumable by
paid users. This paper describes a Web-based system that enables the secure exchange of digital content
between Web users and prevents users from illegally re-sell of the digital content.
Part of our solution is based on broadcast encryption technology.
