Abstract
A major problem in circulating copyrighted digital content through a computer network is how to protect against the illegal copying of the content. As a means of addressing this problem, we propose a new copyright protection scheme which features the use of a personal card (e.g. PCMCIA Card, PC Card) and the dividing between various parties of a customer’s card private key for a RSA public key cryptosystems (Rivest, 1978). Our proposed scheme has many advantages in key management.
The scheme promises to facilitate rapid growth in the market of copyrighted digital content by protecting the rights and assuaging the anxieties of both content owners and customers.
