About Oracle IRM and Sealed Content 1-7
Item codes are changed or retained depending on your rights. If you have the Seal right, then when you save or save as any edits to a document, a new item code will
be created for that document. If you have the Reseal right, then every time you save the document, the same item code will be used.
1.8 About Sealed Email
In any business environment, confidential and sensitive information is entrusted to email communications. The Oracle IRM solution provides the tools you need to enable
you to seal email just as you seal other types of content.
To work effectively with sealed email, you need to:
■
Create and send sealed email.
■
Open sealed email that you receive.
■
Open sealed files that are sent as attachments to emails.
■
Create and send sealed replies.
■
Forward sealed emails. Oracle IRM Desktop enables all of the above so that you can participate in sealed email
threads. See Section 5, Using Sealed Email
. Your rights to create and reply to sealed email are managed separately from your
rights to create and edit other types of sealed document.
1.9 About Microsoft Office Templates
The Oracle IRM solution supports two ways of using templates to enable organizations to create sealed documents consistently:
■
You can use sealed Microsoft Office templates to create Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint documents consistently.
■
You can create sealed documents from regular Microsoft Office templates using the Oracle IRM menu within Microsoft Office.
See Section 4.11.1, About Using Sealed Microsoft Office Templates
. In each case, your templates can contain Oracle IRM fields that help to remind users of
the sensitive nature of the documents created from them. For example, a template might have headers and footers that contain fields that identify the context of the
documents, and the name of the user who opens a specific copy.
1.10 About Sealed Multimedia Files
Oracle IRM supports a range of video file formats. You will generally need the Open right to view sealed video files. See
Section 1.3, About Rights .
You can seal video files in the same way as you seal other types of file. For example, users of the Oracle IRM Desktop can select video files in Windows Explorer and select
Seal To from the File menu. You are prompted to select a context for the files.
When you open sealed video files, the Oracle IRM Desktop toolbar provides buttons for playing, pausing, and stopping the file.
You will need to have QuickTime Player installed on your PC to be able to play back sealed video files.
