February 10, 2021 11.52 Europe/London By Chris Dziadul

The Russian streaming service Okko Sports has chosen Verimatrix to assist in preventing unauthorised sports broadcasts.

Commenting on the development, Oleg Manzha, general director of Okko Sport, said: “Okko Sport offers users a unique opportunity to watch the English Premier League, MLS, Italian Cup, Bellator and ATP250 tournaments in high quality and with a lot of possibilities – choice of soundtrack, multi-view, fast switching.

“This is a completely different level of user experience and immersion in the sport. I am pleased to announce our collaboration with Verimatrix, one of the leaders in digital content protection. I am sure that thanks to this cooperation, more users will be able to appreciate the benefits of Okko Sport”.

Asaf Ashkenazi, COO at Verimatrix, added: “Okko Sport’s viewers look forward to some of the world’s most anticipated athletic events.

“We’re pleased to help streaming services such as Okko to more robustly protect their content as well as their business. With proactive, intelligent anti-piracy technologies, streamers add a powerful layer of deterrence against pirates”.
