Ipercast has been a trusted third party for American Majors and some of the biggest audiovisual content producers for many years.
As early as 2003, as part of its premium VOD and digital music distribution programs, ipercast had already struck a number of strategic partnerships to provide its clients with a state-of-the-art Digital Right Management (DRM) service.

PlayReady DRM

To this end, our platforms have been relying on the DRMfusion solution, developed by Safenet, for the last 5 years.
Ipercast has since become an expert in this field. We are thus able to design solutions aimed at improving and adapting the software according to our clients’ business cases.
This solution enables us to manage our clients’ digital rights in a highly professional manner, for both VoD and Live applications as well as for PCs and mobile devices.

The DRM solution operated by ipercast guarantees the highest levels of criticality for the processed data; rock-solid service availability; and optimal scalability.
Our rights management platform can support extreme load increases. This makes it ideally suited to applications such as live broadcasts of major international sporting events, which can generate tens of thousands of requests in just a few seconds.

This DRM architecture can be easily integrated and is managed seamlessly for the client.

Technical information :

Generation of access licences for users.
DRM is based on a 3-entity model (i.e. the user, the content publisher and the DRM/delivery service provider). The intelligent processes required to grant or refuse access to a given content are ALWAYS managed on the content publisher’s side. It is therefore necessary to integrate a set of licence-generation processes within the publisher’s portal.
This configuration essentially relies on Web services.

Content protection :
  • Live content is protected internally, within the ipercast platform
  • VOD content can also be supported on the service platform
  • VOD content can be protected using specific software installed on one or several of the client’s stations in offline mode

Ipercast has been providing this service for 5 years, establishing itself as a leading expert in this field. We are in permanent exchange with other players in the DRM arena, which enables us to tailor our solutions according to our clients’ requirements and the intended distribution formats (Medialive, Widevine, Adobe, Verimatrix, etc.)
