Abstract
Digital rights management is extended such that control over the access to data stored in a cloud remains with the originator of the data. The access information is coordinated between a rights application in the cloud and a rights server outside the cloud. A rights policy is used for fine-grained regulation of the access for users (user groups), computers (client, server) and validity periods. The access limits actions that can be performed with the data, such as a server application being provided with access to index said data without being able to access the complete contents of the data in the process. The access extension may be used for any type of distributed data processing in which the data are intended to be protected against unauthorized access operations.
