The 2001 ACM Workshop on Security and Privacy in Digital Rights
Management (SPDRM '01) provides a forum for the sharing of original
research results and practical development experiences on all
security and privacy aspects of digital distribution of content, such
as digital versions of books, articles, music and video. The workshop
considers technical problems faced by rights holders (who seek to
protect their intellectual property rights) and end consumers (who
seek to protect their privacy and to preserve access they now enjoy
in traditional media under existing copyright law). The workshop is
intended for anybody interested in secure digital commerce for
content and the related technologies. In addition to technical
presentations, there will be several presentations on legal and
business aspects of Digital Rights Management. The workshop is
seeking international participation from the scientific and
the R&D communities, as well as from the business and legal
communities.

The Eighth ACM Conference on Computer and Communications Security
(CCS-8) takes place in the same venue, Nov. 6-8, 2001.
