The spread of the Internet and the development of web technologies are one of the most important factors that determined the beginning of digital publishing. In the 1990s, with the Internet becoming public and commercially available; Websites and digital content began to spread, and content began to be published in digital media as an alternative to print publishing. This has created a need to protect intellectual property, help copyright owners maintain control of works, and enable digital publishers to manage content and revenue streams.
Digital Rights Management (DRM) is the use of technology to control and manage access to copyrighted material. DRM is used in a variety of digital content, from entertainment media such as books, music and videos to database subscriptions and software programs. Rapid change in technology may serve to improve the current problems of DRM systems, and blockchain technology in particular has great potential in this regard.
The article examines DRM systems technology and current solutions on this subject from the perspective of the publishing industry, based on academic literature.

Dijital Haklar Yönetimi (DRM) ve Blok Zinciri Teknolojisi

Öz

İnternetin yaygınlaşması ve web teknolojilerinin gelişimi, dijital yayıncılığın başlangıcını belirleyen en önemli faktörlerden biridir.1990’larda internetin halka açılması, ticari olarak kullanılabilir hale gelmesiyle; web siteleri ve dijital içeriklerin yayılması başladı ve basılı yayıncılığa alternatif olarak dijital ortamda içerikler yayımlanmaya başlandı. Bu fikri mülkiyeti korumak, telif hakkı sahiplerinin eser kontrolünü sürdürmelerine yardımcı olmak ve dijital yayıncılar için içerik ve gelir akışlarını yönetebilmeleri gereksinimini doğurdu. Dijital Haklar Yönetimi (DRM), telif hakkıyla korunan materyale erişimi kontrol etmek ve yönetmek için teknolojinin kullanılmasıdır. DRM, kitaplar, müzik ve videolar gibi eğlence ortamlarından veri tabanı aboneliklerine, yazılım programlarına kadar çeşitli dijital içeriklerde kullanılmaktadır. Teknolojideki hızlı değişim DRM sistemlerinin mevcut sorunlarını iyileştirmeye yarayabilir ve özellikle blok zinciri teknolojisi bu konuda büyük potansiyele sahiptir.
Makale, yayıncılık sektörü bakış açısıyla DRM sistemleri teknolojisi ve bu konudaki güncel çözümleri akademik literatürü dayanak alarak inceler.
