DRM Overview

The industry's only complete portfolio of standards-based client and server-side DRM security solutions to license, protect, and monetize digital entertainment content, features, and services

The driving factor behind consumer demand for digital consumption options is flexibility, making the ability to enable anytime, anywhere, from any device access to content a crucial success factor of any digital content service. In order to meet these consumer demands and achieve success in emerging digital markets, broadcasters, content owners, mobile operators, and service providers must be able to provide a variety of purchasing and consumption models. The foundation behind any flexible pricing and licensing plan is security.

Only with the adoption of open standards-based security solutions can broadcasters, mobile operators and service providers guarantee that they are in control of their DRM policies while providing consumers with device and network agnostic feature-rich content and services. Adoption of closed, proprietary DRM solutions or Conditional Access Systems (CAS) ties broadcasters, mobile operators and service providers to a single DRM supplier therefore limiting device and network interoperability and leaves their consumers reliant on a DRM solution that is not guaranteed to be future-proof.

SafeNet offers a complete portfolio of standards-based DRM and Mobile TV Protection solutions developed specifically to address the unique licensing, protection, and monetization requirements of any digital content deployment. When built directly into existing digital content service platforms and handsets, SafeNet's complete portfolio of client and server-side security solutions enables mobile operators and service providers to effectively and securely bring new features and services, such as mobile TV, to the market quickly.
