Microsoft Windows Media DRM uses a wide range of cryptographic and anti–piracy techniques to protect digital media content and its own integrity. Microsoft Windows Media Rights Manager, the technology that packages files and issues licenses, encrypts a given media file with a full–strength encryption algorithm. No decryption key is contained in the Windows Media Format file container.

Windows Media DRM supports revocation at several stages. First, the license server can crosscheck a list of compromised run–time clients and refuse service to those clients until they upgrade to a newer and more secure client.

Windows Media keeps the licenses separate from the digital media file. Customers are encouraged to back up packaged digital media files through traditional backup mechanisms. They should do this in the same way they back up any other data, such as their Microsoft Word documents and Excel spreadsheets. If catastrophic hardware failures occur, Windows Media allows customers to back up licenses on one computer and restore them on other computers.
