Information Rights Management (IRM) is an information protection technology that helps protect valuable digital information — such as financial reports, product specifications, customer data, and e-mail messages — from unauthorized users. By using IRM, users can choose from different permission policies to define who can open, change, print, forward, and take other actions with the information.
The Information Rights Management in Office for Mac 2011 deployment guide describes the steps to set up Active Directory Rights Management Service (AD RMS) on Windows Server 2008 R2 in a test environment, configure this server to work with the Mac clients, and use IRM with Office for Mac 2011. This document is for IT managers, system administrators, or other people who are responsible for testing IRM implementation in Office for Mac 2011.
