This article aims to analyze the regulation of copyright protection for movie creators through Digital Rights Management (DRM) technology implemented in Over The Top (OTT) services. This study employs a normative legal method with a prescriptive nature and a statutory approach. The article examines the provisions of Law Number 28 of 2014 concerning Copyright through Philipus M. Hadjon’s theory of legal protection. The findings indicate that the Copyright Law has not comprehensively regulated DRM technology within OTT services, particularly due to the absence of provisions regarding the prohibition of DRM circumvention tools (anti-circumvention), as well as the lack of clear regulations concerning technical standards and supervisory procedures for DRM technology. The author concludes that reforms regarding digital copyright protection, particularly DRM regulation within the Copyright Law, are necessary to ensure legal protection for movie creators as legal subjects and for movies distributed through OTT services.
