Information Rights Management 

Glossary Page

Information Rights Management (IRM) is a type of Digital Rights Management (DRM) that is specifically designed to protect enterprise data and ensure that it is only accessed by authorized parties and in accordance with agreed license terms. In the context of Gaia-X, IRM technologies could be used to restrict access to data only to users within the EU or other authorized jurisdictions. Due to the complexity and cost of implementing IRM, it is typically used only for the most valuable or sensitive shared data or in situations where liability could arise from misuse by the recipient.
