Objectlab has developed OpenIPMP, its Intellectual Property Management and Protection (IPMP) solution for MPEG-4. OpenIPMP conforms to MPEG's IPMP "Hooks" specification and supports User Identification and Management, Content Identification and Management and Rights Management. The recently released, open-source version of OpenIPMP is integrated into Cisco's open-source MPEG-4 project, MPEG4IP, for encoding and decoding and uses other open-source software for cryptography and deployment.
The software implements a full Public Key Infrastructure, utilizing the Digital Object Identifier (DOI®) as the Content Identification scheme and the Open Digital Rights Language (ODRL) as the Rights Expression Language. The software adheres to the Internet Streaming Media Alliance (ISMA) 1.0 specifications and supports encoding and protecting content in MPEG-4 files so that the same file can be used for local and streamed playback.
