Oracle rms что это
Пока данные находятся в информационной системе, например, СЭД, доступ к ним контролируется средствами системы. Но как только информация покидает систему в виде отдельного документа, контроль над её использованием теряется. IRM (Information Rights Management) – класс систем, которые позволяют не терять контроль над документами после их публикации.
Все IRM системы используют общий принцип работы. Доступ пользователя к данным контролирует специализированный программный агент. Чтобы исключить возможность доступа в обход агента, данные шифруются. Сервер системы управляет разрешениями и, в частности, доступом к ключу шифрования. Чтобы получить доступ к данным, пользователю необходимо аутентифицироваться в системе. Программный агент обращается к серверу от имени пользователя и получает ключ или расшифрованные данные. Клиентское ПО демонстрирует пользователю защищенный документ, но не позволяет выполнять запрещенные действия. Например, при публикации можно запретить печатать документ, копировать текст в буфер обмена, сохранять снимок экрана и т.п. Разрешения могут быть установлены как для каждого отдельного документа, так и для целого класса документов – с помощью централизованных политик. В качестве клиентских агентов выступают специальные программы по работе с документами (например, Adobe Reader или MS Office) или плагины для них.
IRM системы не только ограничивают доступ к защищаемым документам, но также выполняют аудит действий пользователей. Впоследствии можно узнать кто, когда, откуда и насколько успешно обращался к документу. По данным аудита могут быть построены исторические отчеты.

Hi, could you please explain about ORACLE RETAIL FINANCIAL INTEGRATION ?
@MD FIROZ AHMAD - Apologies for late reply. You can find all about RMS Items (including diffs) in my below article. Do let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks
@Ram - Thanks for highlighting one of the critical area in any of RMS Implementation. Oracle Financial Integration is huge topic and I've added in my RMS Contents list. You will soon get all details about Financial integrations.
Thank You for Your Response Sir.
How about Replenishment? Under which topic is it covered?
I am also curious about the different types of replenishment without a forecasting module. How is this setup using scaling for floating point model. In addition, I would like to understand how transfers work and what each type (admin, book, reallocation, etc) all work in RMS and then the flow to SIM.
Does ORMS version 16 support Port country of origin to Port destination country lead days without having to setup lead days at an item level but rather setup lead days at Purchase Order level?

The organizational hierarchy allows you to create the relationships that are necessary in order to support the operational structure of a company. You can create a preferred organizational structure to support consolidated reporting at various levels of the company. Also, you can assign responsibility for any level of the hierarchy to a person or persons in order to satisfy internal reporting requirements.
• The definition of a chain is based on the needs of the company, but a chain can be used to group various store formats, concepts, and geographical locations within the organization.
• The definition of an area is based on the needs of the company, but an area is used typically to define a geographical group within a chain
• The definition of a region is based on the needs of the company, but a region can be used to group geographical locations within an area
• The definition of a district is based on the needs of the company, but a district is used typically to group geographical locations within a region
A channel grouping mechanism for a multi-channel environment. You can associate a channel with a location when you create or edit a store or virtual warehouse.
Channel ID’s are not considered part of the Organizational Hierarchy; they are an Attribute of the Hierarchy.
• If install is multi-channel, a channel must be selected for each store and warehouse, BUT can be changed over time.
Store is the lowest level of the organizational hierarchy. A Store in RMS is the actual retail location and is considered a stock holding location for the Brick and Mortar channel. Store is the level at which all business transactions occur.
When creating a new store, the user will enter basic information like Store ID, Name, District, and Address. In addition to that a Like Store can be selected and an existing store’s items’ cost, retail, and replenishment parameters (if required) are copied to the new store. A batch job then adds the store into RMS. Note: Like Store functionality does not copy clearance skus to the new store.
With RMS becoming the system of record for stores, only merchandising attributes related to functionality being used in RMS will be stored in RMS. Store attributes related functionalities that will be used are described in the next few paragraphs.
RMS requires two mandatory addresses for each store – Business address and Postal address. Other address types as required by the business can be added as well.
RMS allows the addition of new attribute definitions that are specific to a retailer. These new attributes are defined after determining that those are truly required by the retailer and after, are added into the system by the system administrator. Afterward, users can store values in those attributes e.g. Longitude, Latitude, Departments available at that Store, Store Hours and Eligibility to do Ship-to-Store.
RMS Store Format functionality allows defining the store formats that can be applied to the stores in the organization. Some examples are Mall, Strip Mall, and Kiosk. After the formats are defined, stores in the organization can be associated with a format.
This functionality allows storage of the square foot area dedicated to a given department within a given store as of an effective date.
This functionality allows Retailers to indicate when specific stores should not receive items of a particular department, class and subclass combination. This is normally used in conjunction with Allocation system.
This functionality keeps information about store availability on specific dates for shipments, receiving and sales. It can also be used for the temporary closing of stores (for reasons like fire, flooding or remodel) so that the store is taken out of comparison calculations.
Transfer entities define which locations in an organization are grouped together due to legal requirements. Transfer entities can be defined by brand, geography, country or other grouping defined by your company. Moving items between transfer entities are treated as a sale from the sourcing location and purchase by the receiving location.
Transfers zones are a grouping of locations within an area. Transfer zones are set up to restrict the transfer of items to locations within the transfer zone
Following are the other notable store related functionalities available in RMS. Let me know if you need more details for any of these:
2. Maintenance of POS Configuration like Coupon, Money Orders, Product restriction, Pay in /pay out, Supplier Payment Type, Tender Type and Touch buttons for downloading to POS registers.
3. Store Class attribute where stores are attached to one of the store classes – A, B, C, D and E that typically classifies stores by the size (ranking by volume).
4. RMS can have Store Grade data interfaced to it from planning systems. Store grade is typically then fed to Allocation systems.
5. Delivery Schedule functionality allows management and maintenance in RMS of delivery schedules from either a warehouse or from a supplier to store.
10. Store attributes – additional attributes may include warehouse, bank, accounting, location, and pharmacy information
11. Location traits - Location traits are a means of grouping stores together used for Sales Audit (ReSA)
A warehouse is a physical storage, cross-dock or distribution facility. A warehouse has all transaction capabilities of a store, except for the ability to sell. The warehouse will no longer be defined as a store but will be established as a physical warehouse within RMS. In RMS, the warehouse does not need to be part of the 6 levels of the Organization Hierarchy. The reason for this feature is that a warehouse has the ability to ship merchandise across the entire company’s organizational hierarchy.
Stock holding indicators –warehouses
· A physical warehouse can have one or more virtual warehouses associated with it and is considered a “non-stock holding” location because the virtual warehouses are the “stock holding” entities.
· RMS expects a Warehouse Management System to hold warehouse related attributes and hence the number of attributes maintained in RMS is very limited. Attributes that are maintained in RMS are as follows:
RMS requires two mandatory addresses for each warehouse – Business address and Postal address. Other address types as required by the business can be added as well.
This functionality keeps information about warehouse availability on specific dates for shipments and receiving.
In RMS, Location Lists allow stores to be grouped based on common characteristics for reporting or to drive functionality. RMS Location Lists are lists of stores or warehouses that can be used to execute tasks or for reporting. Lists can be built manually by selecting locations individually or by criteria such as State, Store Dates, or levels of the Organizational Hierarchy and can be set up as dynamic or static.
In RMS, Location Traits allow stores to be grouped based on common characteristics for reporting or to drive functionality. Traits are first established and then associated to store or warehouse locations. Traits may include such characteristics as weather, size, or volume. Location Trait defaults can also be assigned to four levels of the Organizational Hierarchy. When Location Trait defaults are associated with a specific level of the hierarchy, then any store location added under that hierarchy level will take on the associated Location Traits.
RMS cost zone structures are used to group locations together to facilitate expense management. Stores and warehouses are generally grouped into cost zones based on their geographical locations and how the items are brought to the destination. Cost zone structures consist of Cost Zone Groups, Cost Zones, and Cost Zone Location assignments.
There are two types of Cost Zone Groups that can be created, zone level and location level. Zone level groups have one or more locations within each zone. Location level zone groups have one zone for each location. Location zone groups may be required if there are different expenses required for each location, but also require a higher level of maintenance than zone level. Expenses can vary at a zone level (i.e. for a group of locations).
Within RMS, all items are associated with a Cost Zone Group upon initial item set up. A change to the item’s Cost Zone Group does not affect item basic cost but will impact expenses and the Estimated Landed Cost (ELC).
В данном небольшом обзоре мы поговорим о преимуществах интеграции виртуальной комнаты данных c IRM/DRM-системой с целью создания универсального решения для доставки, хранения и защиты документов на протяжении всего их жизненного цикла. Также мы расскажем, почему на наш взгляд именно такие программные продукты в обозримом будущем будут пользоваться спросом на рынке решений для защиты корпоративных данных.
Исторически сложилось, что на рынок IRM-систем наибольшее влияние оказали два, как принято считать, безусловных лидера — Oracle и Microsoft. В то время как решения первой компании канули в бездну и доступны только в составе комплексных платформ, Microsoft AD RMS остаётся эталоном и по сей день. Что касается решений «второго эшелона», то сегодня они нередко превосходят функционально решения пионеров.
Прежде, чем приступить, давайте наглядно продемонстрируем работу каждого из компонентов в небольшом видео-обзоре.
Демонстрация работы виртуальной комнаты данных
В это же время, виртуальная комната данных (далее — ВКД), как правило, защищает документ до момента его загрузки внешним пользователем, и не решает задач управления сроком жизни загруженного документа. В нашем случае Vaultize позволяет не только управлять сроком жизни документа, но и отозвать предоставленные ранее права доступа по требованию владельца документа.
Давайте сравним, чем отличается реализация защиты документов в ВКД и в IRM-системах.
CHECK POINT DOCUMENT SECURITY
Преимущества виртуальной комнаты данных
Защита документов на протяжении всего жизненного цикла. Возможность создавать защищенные микро-контейнеры (аналог AD RMS) с функционалом ограничения и отзыва прав доступа к критически важным документам, даже когда они находятся вне корпоративной сети компании. Решение обеспечивает безопасность корпоративных данных на устройствах любых типов, будь то смартфон, планшет, ПК или ноутбук.
Гибкость и масштабируемость. Возможность выбора места хранения данных компании — на корпоративных серверах либо в облаке интернет-сервис провайдера, что является альтернативой таким устаревшим и небезопасным способам передачи данных, как FTP сервер и публичные облачные хранилища.
Возможность интеграции с корпоративными приложениями. Использование различных групповых политик безопасности. Управление правами происходит централизованно, в панели администратора. Интеграция с Active Directory и LDAP позволяет назначать права с учетом имеющихся в организации групповых правил.
Корпоративная мобильность. Защищенное хранилище данных на мобильных устройствах позволяет отделить корпоративную информацию от пользовательской, что позволяет полноценно применять концепцию BYOD. При открытии хранилища у пользователя блокируются беспроводные средства передачи данных, фотокамера, а также ограничивается возможность делать снимки экрана. Функция «анти-вор» позволяет централизованно удалить данные компании даже после извлечения sim-карты из устройства.
Защита исходящей электронной почты. При наличии плагина для интеграции с корпоративными почтовыми программами, почтовые вложения автоматически подменяются на безопасные ссылки, что позволяет контролировать и отзывать доступ к отправленным файлам, сохраняя удобство работы для конечного пользователя. От получателя требуется лишь перейти по ссылке для просмотра документа через веб-приложение в браузере.
Как видно, интегрированное решение функционально значительно выигрывает, в то время как классические IRM/RMS-решения не вполне отвечают современным требованиям защиты корпоративных данных. Однако, в тех случаях, когда не требуется встроенное средство доставки защищенного документа и управления корпоративной мобильностью, IRM-решения способны обеспечить необходимую защиту.
Помимо всего прочего, рассматриваемая в данной статье виртуальная комната данных Vaultize будет отличным решением для компаний, которые ищут замену AD RMS. Как известно, Microsoft планирует прекратить поддержку On-Premises версии данного продукта и перенести его полностью в облако Office 360, что для многих российских компаний является неприемлемым по целому ряду причин.
Как работает IRM-система
Как известно, IRM в том виде, в каком мы ее привыкли видеть благодаря Oracle и Microsoft, не имеет встроенного транспорта для доставки документа. Забота о передаче защищенного документа получателю ложится на плечи пользователя, что не всегда приемлемо как с точки зрения юзабилити, так и информационной безопасности (ИБ).
В случае с решением Vaultize мы наблюдаем противоположную картину.
Интерфейс Виртуальной Комнаты Данных Vaultize
Интерфейс виртуальной комнаты данных Vaultize
ORACLE IRM
Мощное промышленное решение от Oracle. Поддерживает большой набор форматов документов. Полноценные клиентские приложения есть только для Windows. Для Mac и Linux есть небольшая Java программа, которая дает возможность получить доступ к защищенным документам. Информация о правах доступа к документу хранится на сервере, это (в отличие от решения Microsoft) дает возможность изменять права доступа к документу уже после его публикации. Единственное решение, сертифицированное ФСТЭК, соответствует категориям НДВ4, К1 и 1Г. Наличие сертификатов дает возможность использовать Oracle IRM в качестве как средства защиты персональных данных. Однако это решение больше не развивается, последний релиз был выпущен в 2011 году. Соответственно, система не интегрируется с новыми версиями операционных систем и приложений. Это решение стоит рассматривать только если критично наличие сертификации ФСТЭК.

Welcome to Oretail forum. Let me first congratulate you on your zeal to learn Oracle Retail applications. This article is the continuation of parent article Oracle Retail Merchandising Systems - Deep Dive which you may want to follow. In this article, I'm going to cover the high-level overview of RMS System and we'll be trying to understand the following:
In order to understand Oracle Retail Merchandising System, we need to first have the understanding about Oracle Retail Merchandise Operations Management Suite and Oracle Retail Footprint. The Merchandise Operations Management (MOM) solutions enable retailers to coordinate their operations and maintain a single, comprehensive source of consistent and accurate data. This coordination allows retailers to provide consumers with the right product, at the right place and time, in the right quantities and for the right price.
ORMS is Oracle’s core transaction system and serves as the central focus point for information flowing throughout the enterprise. ORMS is a user-friendly system built using the Oracle database and is designed to handle retail needs for fashion or department stores, grocery stores, mass merchandisers, and hardlines stores.
Improved inventory tracking combined with robust ordering, transfer, replenishment and integrated allocation functionality provides greater control over products and inventories resulting in better sales and fewer markdowns which improves gross margin
Inventory tracking throughout the supply chain enables quicker inventory response and ensures a balance between inventory cost efficiencies and customer service levels.
Merchandising is the glue of Oracle Retail Product Suite, the daily operational functions of the retailer can be created, maintained and viewed in a single solution
o Provides the foundation for other transaction-level systems as well as decision support and predictive solutions
o Key application across all retail verticals (grocery, fashion etc.) and all channels (bricks and mortar, web etc.)
o The foundation and perpetual inventory within RMS serve as the system of record within the enterprise providing a single version of the truth.
o Analytical reporting, exception management, planning, forecasting, distribution management, inventory management, point-of-sale etc.
o The perpetual inventory/sales history within RMS is shared with other Retek applications such as Order Management, Planning, Forecasting, Allocation, AIP, Data Warehouse, etc… RMS not only enables these processes by providing the relevant data but also ensures they are consistent and accurate as they utilize the same data set.
o Retailers no longer need to maintain multiple merchandising systems to support multiple channels or multiple countries. RMS provides the ability to maintain these in a single system ensuring consistency in various merchandising processes (item management, procurement, etc…)
Following is the single view table for the all the data integration between Oracle Retail Merchandise Operation Management Solutions:
• Collaborative, web based product development solution to conceive, develop and finalize new product design
Enables retailers the ability to expand the ratio of import to domestic products and shift to a more profitable private-label branding strategy through improved management of the product design process
Optimizes time to market reducing sample iterations and eliminating redundant work. Visibility to all product and event details allows proactive management of product issues and facilitates a focused, organized product development and sourcing process.
Technology supports product configuration, data analysis and comparisons enabling an organized, efficient product development and sourcing process
Centralized data improves visibility, internal and external communication through immediate supplier feedback, and allows accurate reporting on progress
• Create visibility to entire importing of product process for increased cost control and profitability
Centralized management of import information eliminates redundant data entry and maintenance, reducing confusion and errors associated with maintaining information in disparate systems and multiple spreadsheets; Provides retailers the scalability to grow import programs while leveraging their investment in their existing merchandising organization and Oracle Retail solution
Better visibility to total product cost helps retailers to drive cost out of their import supply chains and enables better buying decisions by:
Centralized management of information exchanged throughout the import supply chain, improves the availability of timely, accurate information. The result is improved cooperation across departments involved in the import process, greater confidence in the accuracy of information, and faster and more effective decision-making.
With greater control of their international supply chain, retailers can grow their import programs to reduce costs and improve margins.
• Provides a central repository of validated import data exchanged with partners throughout the retailer’s extended enterprise
Single point of input and access to critical pricing foundation data, such as zone management, pricing guides, “ends in” and rounding rules, allow retailers to reduce pricing inconsistencies and maintain image.
Integration to important sales, inventory and foundation data gives retailers the ability to make pricing decisions with a view to critical information.
Managing by exception helps save time and provides visibility to pricing opportunities with the most favorable business impact. Automation and suggestion of price changes by the system reduces manual process.
Strategy-based pricing within ORPM help retailers manage the product’s pricing lifecycle, whether it be a seasonally driven markdown, or a product highly susceptible to cost increases or competitor pricing. This ensures that products are priced correctly, consistently and in line with what the local market demands.
• Fully integrated with Oracle Retail enterprise, resulting in faster implementation, reduction in interfaces and lower TCO
• Single version of the truth and centralized visibility for critical information surrounding pricing decisions—we own the foundation.
Trickle-polling capability within Sales Audit provides the Oracle Retail product suite near-real time visibility to sales and updates stock on hand, reducing safety stock levels
As the single point of entry for multi-channel point-of-sale data, Sales Audit provides a “Single version of the truth” by maintaining data integrity across the entire Oracle Retail suite
Sales Audit is tightly integrated within the Oracle Retail product suite; therefore, the amount of custom interfaces required are substantially reduced
A highly configurable sales audit tool that allows the retailer to maintain their existing audit practices with the flexibility to adapt to new challenges
Flexible definition of audit totals and rules and interactive audit process permit the retailer to create a highly customized sales audit process, tailored to meet the retailer’s specific needs, while allowing for changes in a dynamic business environmen t
• Fully integrated enterprise solution in comparison to the point solution competitors…Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
Highly automated processes minimize manual intervention through complex multi-dimensional matching engines while automated 'routing' provides efficient movement of information throughout the organization to support discrepancy resolution.
Timely identification and resolution of discrepancies helps ensure inventory adjustments can be made prior to sale of goods to improve gross margin accuracy.
Invoice Matching helps retailers manage the payment process and maximize net cash on hand by ensuring timely discrepancy identification and routing based on cash discount or invoice due dates.
Best practice for invoice matching is to perform the verification activity within the merchandise system where the foundation and merchandise data is readily available. Invoice Matching lowers the total cost of ownership by minimizing interface development due to it’s tight integration with the Oracle Retail solution suite.
• Seamless integration between the merchandising and trade management solutions (e.g. supplier billing for RTVs, rebates and other deals, consignment, evaluated receipts and import obligations)
• Fully integrated enterprise solution in comparison to the point solution competitors…Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
By putting historical and exception reporting as well as retail KPIs to work, retailers gain valuable business insight that is easily accessible and actionable, resulting in increased sales and margins.
One reporting source for critical and accurate information is available to all users for improved decision-making and critical user acceptance.
Integration of sales, inventory and foundation data into ORDW allow retailers to gain insights into customer buying patterns and location level performance.
ORDW’s flexible framework allow for retailers to publish metrics and templates for the user community to access, thus providing a single version of the truth and centralized source for reporting and analytics.
Delivers the right information to the right people at the earliest opportunity. Provides actionable actions for routine processes and escalate alerts if not resolved within defined time frames
Reduces the need for creating and printing hardcopy exception reports by delivering the right information to the right people at the earliest opportunity using exception notifications. Enables ability to react to exception in a more timely manor
Enables the ability to close the loop on business processes without costly modifications to code, which keeps the software on a supported upgrade path as well being able to change when business rules change
The Oracle Retail Reference Model is a comprehensive collection of established, industry leading business processes which guide retailers and implementers on the use of Oracle applications to achieve greater business value. The processes support an implementation of merchandising, stores, planning, and supply chain products, and act as a guide for both the business and implementation teams. The designs are created for a generic retailer, but with inherent considerations for Hardlines, Fashion, Grocery, and Telecommunications. Process content is complimentary to customers who have licensed any Oracle Retail application. Ongoing updates and additions based on feedback, recent Oracle Retail releases, and new applications, ensure that the retailer always has updated, comprehensive, field proven processes for retail operations. Business process flows are created and maintained in Microsoft Visio
A collection of functional areas to describe the retail enterprise as a whole, using Value Added Chain notation arranged according to Plan and Market, Make, Buy, Move and Fulfill, Sell and Service, and Enterprise Operations.
Conceptual representation of one major business process area, using adaptation of Event-driven Process Chain notation. May be connected in a start-to-finish flow, organized as unconnected process areas, or any appropriate combination thereof
Representations of logical part of a start-to finish business process, using adaptation of Event-driven Process Chain notation.
Represent the activities and tasks that are executed by actor and system to complete the process. Uses adaptation of Business Process Modeling Notation symbols.
The Business Process designs are intended to support an implementation of the merchandising, stores, and planning products. These designs are a guide for both the business and implementation teams. They explain some scenarios and factors that need to be considered for a successful implementation. The designs are created for a generic retailer, with some considerations made for Hardlines, Apparel (Softlines), Grocery, and Telecommunications. Hence, retailers may find that they wish to change the business processes to meet their unique needs, but the documents should provide a solid initial foundation.
You can find these detailed referenced models (all level1, 2 & 3) at My Oracle Support for following applications:
This was all about understanding the high-level overview of Oracle Retail MOM Applications, integrations between all its applications and the Oracle Retail Reference Model.
In next article. we are going to dive more in Oracle Retail Merchandising Systems and understand about Location Management under RMS foundations.
You may also want to refer to parent article Oracle Retail Merchandising Systems - Deep Dive. Do drop a note/comment in case you have any question, comments or feedback.
Here is what you all might have waited so far. In this series, I’m going to talk about in and out of all RMS Functionalities. The purpose of this article is to provide you not just in-depth but one stop place where you can find all the details that can be used in any of Oracle Retail Implementations, CRP's, User Training or Oracle Retail Merchandising Systems (RMS) Certification (Pearson Vue Exam Number 1Z0-453) preparations.
Following are the key areas I would be covering in depth, but feel free to drop a note in case you are looking for any additional detail for any of below or any other functionality:
More to come. I'll be updating above functional areas one at a time with its detail link page. Keep watching this space and let me know if you want anything else to be added!!
ADOBE LIVECYCLE RIGHTS MANAGEMENT
Решение от Adobe – это один из модулей комплексной системы для работы с документами Adobe LiveCycle Enterprise Suite. Великолепно интегрирована с программами Adobe для работы с PDF документами – Adobe Acrobat и Adobe Reader. С помощью клиентских плагинов поддерживает работу с документами Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), видеофайлами и проектами Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 5.0.
Хорошо подходит для защиты документов, передаваемых за пределы организации, например, конструкторской документации.
EMC DOCUMENTUM IRM SERVICES
Решение от создателя популярной в России системы документооборота Documentum. Предназначено, в первую очередь, для создания защищенного документооборота. Набор поддерживаемых форматов документов довольно ограничен. Может использоваться как отдельное решение, но наиболее целесообразно использовать совместно с Documentum или eRoom, с которыми EMC IRM хорошо интегрирован.
Серверная служба RMS входит в Windows Server. Клиентские модули входят в Windows начиная с версии Vista. Возможности управления доступом органично встроены в MS Office, в том числе версии для Mac и iPad. Возможно использование функций RMS в облаке Microsoft, при использовании веб-доступа к документам – это делает решение похожим на CheckPoint. Решение построено на использовании сертификатов. Параметры защиты встраиваются непосредственно в документ и заверяются сертификатами пользователя и сервера RMS. Такая архитектура накладывает естественные ограничения на возможности аудита. AD RMS протоколирует только факты выдачи сертификатов-лицензий обращений за ними на сервер.
Из коробки набор поддерживаемых форматов ограничен документами Office и форматом XPS. Есть сторонние решения, построенные на базе AD RMS и расширяющие список защищаемых типов документов (например, решение от Secure Islands позволяет защищать с помощью RMS документы любых форматов). При передаче документов за пределы организации получатель документа должен иметь возможность аутентифицироваться в Active Directory, причем между доменами отправителя и получателя должны быть выстроены отношения доверия. Другой вариант – идентификация пользователей через учетную запись Windows Live. AD RMS – естественный выбор, если IT инфраструктура организации построена на базе Active Directory.
