In this case I'd call it InfoSec features, not DRM. They can be conflated because both can rely on encryption, but they have different purposes, or I'd say premises.



InfoSec is the goal, and DRM is the process by which the goal is reached. DRM refers to digital data that some people can't copy, or view, etc. often at a hardware level. That's a tool in doing InfoSec.
