AACS (Advanced Access Content System)

AACS (Advanced Access Content System) is a digital rights management (DRM) technology used to protect high-definition media content, like Blu-ray discs. It prevents unauthorized copying and piracy by encrypting the data on the discs and controlling how and when the content can be accessed or duplicated. Devices equipped with AACS have keys that decrypt the content only under legitimate conditions, ensuring that only authorized users can view the media. This system helps content creators and publishers by safeguarding their intellectual property while allowing legal consumers to enjoy high-quality digital entertainment.
