20090125722 | CROSS-PLATFORM DIGITAL RIGHTS MANAGEMENT PROVIDING MULTI-LEVEL SECURITY INFORMATION FLOW TRACKING - A method and system for generating and controlling access to copy-protected digital media files. Digital media content is obtained and encoded in electronic file using a media codec. The encoded media content is encrypted in the electronic file and a multi-format renderer configured to render the encoded, encrypted electronic file is embedded in the electronic file. When the digital file is accessed, the multi-format renderer generates an invocation code identifying an operation-type in response to a requested operation. A transaction ID storing a user-access policy and associated with the electronic file is retrieved and compared to the invocation code. Based on a result of the comparison of the invocation code and the user-access policy, the multi-format renderer selectively allows the invocation code. | 05-14-2009 |
20090125397 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR INTEGRATING RANKINGS OF JOURNALED INTERNET CONTENT AND CONSUMER MEDIA PREFERENCES FOR USE IN MARKETING PROFILES - A method and system for integrating data-source consumer-preference data and internet-medium consumer-preference data for use in targeted advertising and ranking content. Consumer-preference data is determined based on user-interactions with a data source, such as a set-top-box. The data source is classified based on a monitoring taxonomy that specifies content categories and relationships between the categories. The consumer-preference data and the data source classification are aggregated with other preference and classification data, which is used to rank the data source classification data. Journaled internet data sources are analyzed using the monitoring taxonomy to determine internet-medium consumer-preference data. The journaled internet data sources are ranked based interest level, direction level, or authority level. A content category ranking is computed using the ranking of data source classifications and the ranking of the journaled internet data sources, which can be provided as an advertising data input or a standalone content ranking reporting tool. | 05-14-2009 |
