RMS Viewer 1.20.0

The RMS Viewer application for iOS facilitates access to Microsoft Windows Rights Management (RMS) protected documents received via email or other applications. This solution is crucial for organizations seeking to securely extend document access to mobile devices while maintaining strict rights management controls.

It is important to note that the functionality of RMS Viewer depends on connectivity to an RMS Rendering Server operated within the organization's corporate network. Users should review the system requirements outlined below prior to deployment.

In detail, Windows Information Rights Management (IRM) safeguards typical office documents through robust encryption, restricting access to designated, enrolled desktop computers. Recognizing the increasing need for mobility, this application enables authorized employees to securely access RMS-protected documents on corporate-compatible mobile devices such as iPhones and iPads, ensuring timely information delivery during travel.

The RMS Viewer app detects file types protected by RMS. When such a file is opened, the app transmits the document to an RMS Rendering Server hosted internally. The server decrypts and converts the document, contingent upon user permissions. The processed document is then transmitted back to the device and displayed within an embedded viewer. This viewer enforces restrictions, preventing printing or forwarding of the protected content.

Additionally, documents can be saved locally on the device with strong encryption, allowing offline access without compromising security.

System requirements include:

• An active deployment of the RMS Rendering Server within the corporate network
• Microsoft Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS) server
• iOS version 4.3 or higher
