Nagra MediaAccess Persistent Rights Management (PRM), was approved by the Digital Transmission Licensing Administrator (DTLA) for streaming of premium DTCP-IP content.
Nagra MediaAccess PRM was previously approved by DTLA for the storage of DTCP content and now becomes the only pay-TV operator-controlled DRM that is authorised for its retransmission as well.
“This latest approval puts Nagra on a very short list of trusted and approved providers of home networking DRM technologies in the world and is another vote of confidence in our solution,” said Philippe Stransky, chief architect for Nagra.
“Whether it’s enabling access from any mobile device to content stored on a DVR or live streaming from a gateway device, NAGRA MediaAccess PRM enables highly popular and flexible home networking consumer use cases that help pay-TV operators win and keep their customer, while offering peace of mind through robust Hollywood studio-approved content security.”
“Use of Nagra MediaAccess PRM with Sling placeshifting technology allows consumers to securely access and control their home cable, satellite or IPTV programming and other audio-video devices so they can view premium or personal content anytime, anywhere,” said Michael Hawkey, VP and general manager at Sling Media.
“PRM ensures that pay-TV operator content is protected while giving consumers a flexible, easy-to-use experience. DTLA’s endorsement of PRM further confirms our decision to work with Nagra to make a secure Sling experience possible for millions of consumers.”
