ABSTRACT:
A data management method that by encrypting and distributing digital content prevents copyright infringement, and that prevents authorization information for decrypting the encrypted digital content from being damaged or otherwise lost. Encrypted content45is prepared by encrypting digital content11with a content key44.A portion of the digital content11is extracted as sample data41.A secret key46,by which the content key44is encrypted with user information14,is embedded as invisible information into the sample data41,thus preparing watermarked sample data47.The watermarked sample data47is synthesized with the encrypted content45to form synthesized data48.The synthesized data48is distributed.
