Frequently asked questions
What is Microsoft Rights Management Services?
A technology that applies persistent encryption and policy-based access controls to documents and email, enabling enterprises to restrict who can open, edit, print, or forward protected content.
How does it control access to protected content?
Access is enforced through cryptographic protection and identity-based policies. When a user requests a file, authentication determines permissions and the client enforces allowed actions such as view, edit, and print.
Does protection remain when content is shared externally?
Protection is designed to remain with the file or message, so assigned usage restrictions travel with content across email and storage, subject to recipient authentication and policy evaluation.
How do recipients open and use protected files?
Recipients authenticate with their enterprise identity; compatible viewers or integrated client software validate policies and enforce permissions before decrypting and rendering protected content.
