It is designed to interoperate with any existing DRM servers the customer has deployed, and complemented by a plug-and-play version of AuthenTec’s DRM Fusion Server for customers without an existing DRM server. AuthenTec’s unique ability to provide end-to-end content protection from the client to the server enables immediate deployment.
