 | HBO Latin America Group locks up Secure Content Delivery with Joint Solution from Thomson
LAS VEGAS, 14 April 2008* - SeaChange International, one of the leading
suppliers to television broadcasters globally, and Thomson , the world
leader in digital video, today announce the deployment of an advanced
content delivery platform for HBO Latin America Group (HBO LAG), using
digital watermarking for enhanced security. HBO LAG is adopting the
solution to make feature films available in the video-on-demand services
of cable network operators throughout Latin America.
“As easily and efficiently as we can disseminate our content, it is
equally important that we can ensure the content’s integrity,” said
Pierre Jaspar, SVP Technology and Operations, HBO LAG.
“The combination of SeaChange’s delivery solution and Thomson’s
watermarking technology provides us with the most effective and reliable
means of achieving those goals.”
Based upon SeaChange’s VODCast file-based content delivery system and
Thomson’s NexGuardTM video watermarking solution, the platform enables
HBO Latin America to securely and cost-effectively transfer file-based
movie content in faster than real time from a single origination point
in Miami to hundreds of server locations simultaneously. The content is
serialised on a per-operator basis, permitting any illicit copies to be
traced back to the source of the leak.
Using secure satellite transmission, the VODCast system integrates
NexGuard software at each receiver site where the MPEG files and streams
are invisibly watermarked upon receipt of new content. The watermark
data is based on a unique identifier on the catcher device and the
process is fully automated, making it impossible to be bypassed at the
receiver site.
