Microsoft Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS)

Classification and Microsoft AD RMS

Microsoft Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS) provides protection of sensitive information, such as documents and email, through the creation and enforcement of persistent policies that live with the information—no matter where it goes.

For customers using AD RMS, the TITUS family of classification solutions allows administrators to associate classification levels with enforceable rights management policy. These policies can restrict the viewing, printing, copying or distribution of Microsoft Office documents and Outlook email. For a demonstration of the integration between TITUS classification solutions and AD RMS, watch the three minute video.

TITUS Message Classification and Classification for Microsoft Office provide the ideal front-end for enterprises deploying RMS. Using TITUS with AD RMS:

• Users need no prior knowledge of how to apply AD RMS, they simply select a TITUS classification before sending or saving an email or document.
• TITUS applies the appropriate AD RMS permissions based on the selected classification.
• Organizations can ensure that AD RMS is applied to sensitive and confidential information by forcing users to classify when saving or sending email or documents.
