Driven by customer demand, the partners Inside Secure and Octoshape now have a fully interoperable product designed to prevent hackers from tapping into streamed or downloaded, offline content. This product leverages the best of Octoshape’s stream acceleration and Multicast technologies and Inside Secure’s DRM (digital rights management) solution. Content providers and operators are increasingly moving to add multiscreen broadband video services into their product portfolio. This interoperability delivers an end-to-end broadband TV solution for operators, featuring strong security and capabilities combined with a superior TV experience for viewers.
More than 80 service providers, including several Hollywood studios, have already adopted Inside Secure’s DRM solution, currently deployed in tens of millions of applications readily downloadable on mobile devices. It is thought to be the industry's only complete portfolio of DRMs. Inside Secure’s DRM solution supports multiple content protection technologies, including Microsoft Playready. It supports both client and server side solutions in order to license, protect and monetise digital entertainment content and services.
“Partnering with Inside Secure was a natural extension for Octoshape as we both share a common focus to provide a superior premium content user experience," said Michael Koehn Milland, CEO of Octoshape. “Securing premium content for broadband connected devices is clearly a top-of-mind concern. Inside Secure has a mature and widely deployed multiscreen solution which fast-tracks our secure integration with multiple DRMs and with Playready in particular."
