[New Ebook] Security in Entertainment Rights Management: Protection You Need Now

The days of securely keeping sensitive rights data on spreadsheets or onsite in legacy systems are gone. Hacks kill revenue, and projects can miss distribution windows because systems are compromised. As a result, in today’s evolving and competitive entertainment landscape, companies are looking for a greater degree of software security.Rights management systems possess a depth and intricacy that companies often ignore – until it's too late. As a result, organizations often make massive investments in these systems, which can be especially difficult for smaller companies with fewer resources. An agile rights management platform minimizes security threats, protects company data, and increases productivity.

Our new ebook, The Critical Role of Security in Entertainment Rights Management, offers insights into the critical security-related components that companies of all sizes must look for in a rights management system. Our ebook covers:

• Product security. The efforts developers undertake to build a secure system that ensures security with multi-factor authentication, cybersecurity protections, and role-based access control.
  
  
• Application security. The architecture, hardware, and hosting required to protect access to information, offer access to data, and improve the application’s security.  

• Organizational security. The steps organizations take to protect priority information from data breaches, unauthorized access, cyberattacks, and other disruptive data security threats.

The Importance of Security in Rights Management

Media companies that track royalties and distribution are highly concerned (and rightly so) about security, not only when doing business but also when selecting a new rights management platform. After all, software security is critical – so critical that it should be contemplated long before a software solution hits the market. As a result, they are looking for solutions that deliver:

• The capacity to record every transaction – who is getting paid and how much – and securely store all information in the cloud.
• Security that protects access to the information behind the screen to provide database-level protection.
• Security standards that go beyond those provided by a standalone software company – as evidenced by certifications that meet incredibly high standards. 

This ebook will help align your security strategy with what enterprise media companies and smaller organizations require in our complex rights management landscape.
