the content protection challenges of today, and those of tomorrow. The
Verimatrix 3-Dimensional Content
Security approach provides a framework to enhance operator
competitiveness and the consumer experience in the new world of pay-TV.

WHAT:
Product Focus:
VCAS™ for DVB
-- Verimatrix's latest offering is a new breed of DVB hybrid content
security. DVB-C operators are able to combine DVB broadcast technology with
interactive IP service delivery using a single robust content security
architecture. VCAS for DVB provides a much needed choice of client security
technologies in cable broadcast networks where no direct return path is
available -- all from a single head-end. The solution provides a lower
total cost of ownership, while fully supporting subscriber upgrades in a
market that is steadily moving towards two-way connectivity. Stop by booth
#K17 to receive a copy of Verimatrix's latest whitepaper on Securing DVB Hybrid Networks:
Enabling New Business Models for Higher Value Pay-TV Services.
VCAS™ for
Cable IPTV -- Offers cable operators a secure, cost-effective solution
to deliver next generation IPTV services over an existing cable plant. By
integrating advanced third-party CMTS bypass technology with robust VCAS
software-based content security, the solution converts an existing cable
system to an asymmetric IP network perfectly suited for IPTV. Multicast and
unicast streams are delivered to off-the-shelf IP set-top boxes and PCs via
low-cost cable modems.
Presentations:
"Managing Usage Rights in a Multi-DRM World." Along
with his industry colleagues, Oetegenn will present the requirements of a
common security platform for all devices and networks from a single
head-end. Pay-TV operators are looking to content security suppliers to
solve the "transparency problem" that has bedeviled the music industry in
its transition to an online marketplace. He will address issues such as
harmonizing license rights and entitlements across multiple DRM schemes and
the architecture required to enable transparent consumption on different CE
devices.
