ProofStrike

Digital rights enforcement software, not DRM

Understand the difference between enforcement workflows for copied content and digital-rights management that controls access to a file.

ProofStrike supports creator-protection workflows around submitted links or supported findings, evidence, recipient research, authorized action, and outcomes. It does not encrypt files, issue playback licenses, or restrict access to your content as a DRM system would.

Two different protection jobs

Digital rights management (DRM)

DRM is generally used to control access to, use of, or copying of a digital file—often through encryption, licenses, or playback controls. ProofStrike is not a DRM or access-control product.

Digital rights enforcement

Digital-rights enforcement workflows help a rights holder assess a copied location, preserve evidence, research a destination, review required statements, authorize an action, and record the resulting facts.

Where ProofStrike fits

ProofStrike is software for the enforcement-workflow side: supported discovery or submitted links, protected evidence records, recipient research with provenance, creator or authorized-representative authorization, supported execution, and outcome tracking.

It does not decide whether a use infringes, make legal conclusions, automatically treat a possible contact as eligible for sending, or guarantee a recipient action. A creator or authorized representative remains responsible for the consequential decision and required attestation.
