Keepixo and INSIDE Secure complete Microsoft-PlayReady Integration to secure delivery of HEVC content over IPTV Systems

Keepixo, a leading provider of software-based head-end solutions for IPTV and OTT, and INSIDE Secure, a leader in embedded security solutions for mobile and connected devices, announce the successful completion of Microsoft PlayReady integration to secure end-to-end delivery of HEVC content.

The solution is being deployed by a North American operator to securely deliver over 100 IPTV services in an OTT-like environment using HD HEVC. A demonstration will be available on the INSIDE Secure booth in Hall 2, booth 2A.08, as well as on the Keepixo stand in Hall 1, booth 1.F34.

"By working with INSIDE Secure, we were able to quickly integrate PlayReady into our Genova Live high-density HEVC encoder and ensure end-to-end HLS delivery of HEVC content to multiple devices including STB, tablets and smartphones. Key rotation can also be enabled to yet increase the protection level." said Jerome Blanc, Product Manager at Keepixo.

Martin Bergenwall, head of the Mobile Security division at INSIDE Secure, commented: "The INSIDE Secure End-to-End DRM protection provides a reliable and proven solution for integration of Microsoft PlayReady content protection. It includes all the components required on both the server and client sides to license, protect, and monetize digital entertainment content and services for HLS, MPEG-DASH, and other popular OTT content formats."

"The ability to deliver HEVC content securely using over-the-top protocols is key for operators who are looking to extend their reach and enable compelling business models," said George Ayad, Microsoft PlayReady director. "We are pleased to collaborate with Keepixo and INSIDE Secure for this North American operator deployment to securely deliver over 100 TV services in HD HEVC."
