This paper represents an attempt to introduce a new Digital Rights Management (DRM) architecture for the distribution and protection of the digital contents. Based on the analysis of current DRM systems and cutting edge state of the art technologies, we propose an innovative design to cope with the existing limitations and weaknesses of a DRM ecosystem. We support the idea of introducing mobile code technologies together with white-box encryption techniques to the next generation of DRM systems. This paper presents our evaluation of current DRM solutions and recent technical breakthroughs. We also introduce a new architectural design. The paper justifies the new architecture and carries out a security analysis for the solution proposed.
