Abstract

The advanced access content system is a standard for content distribution and digital rights management. It revokes compromised devices by revoking their corresponding device keys and manages them by using the subset cover tree method, which needs many device keys for storing each device. On the reasonable assumption that devices are revoked randomly and uniformly, a modified method is proposed for storage and revoking of the keys. Then, the number of the keys decreases greatly, while the number of the subset covers for legal devices only increases slightly.
