Alticast today announced that it has become a member of the
“Certified Widevine Implementation Partner Program,” a designation that is
intended to expand content security options for pay-TV operators worldwide.
As a modular DRM
partner, Alticast’s AltiProtect Multi-DRM product can support Widevine DRM as
one of several security solutions within a single infrastructure. AltiProtect enables a single point of control and transparent customer
experience for delivery of content streams from multiple sources – and using
multiple security mechanisms – within multi-service, multi-device environments.
Widevine DRM is available on a broad range of platforms and is currently
deployed on more than two billion devices.
The Widevine solution combines Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP
(DASH), Common Encryption (CENC) and Encrypted Media Extensions (ENE) to
provide robust multiplatform content protection.
Studio-approved and highly rated by Telcordia, AltiProtect uses
well-defined industry standards to ensure reliable content protection for
broadcast and VOD, and can easily adapt to unique network infrastructures. AltiProtect is being used by CJ Hellovision,
the largest pay-TV operator in South Korea, to secure the world’s first launch
of UHD pay-TV service.
“AltiProtect is a dynamic CAS/DRM solution that already secures content
on millions of deployed devices,” said Dr. Misung Cho, security technology lead
for Alticast. “With Widevine we can expand the available content catalogs for
partnering in a heterogeneous content delivery environment.”
Alticast will demonstrate a variety of products and solutions for pay-TV
operators at its stand (1F.36) at IBC 2016 September 9-13 in Amsterdam.
