Slovak Telekom selects Verimatrix video solution for Internet TV

Telecom Lead Europe: Slovak Telekom has selected Verimatrix Video Content Authority System (VCAS) for Internet TV.

Verimatrix says its VCAS will protect Slovak Telekom’s new Magio GO over-the-top (OTT) multi-screen services.

The Deutsche Telekom subsidiary has more than 180,000 TV subscribers.

Slovak Telekom‘s Magio GO service is offered as an additional service to Slovak Telekom’s Magio TV products. Magio GO is available on TV, web, mobile and is based on Slovak Telekom’s MCore converged multi-screen application framework.

“In developing our new Magio GO solution, we leveraged technologies such as VCAS for Internet TV, to optimize the delivery and security of new multimedia and content services over unmanaged OTT networks,” said Branimir Maric, chief technology and information officer, Slovak Telekom.

Verimatrix claims that VCAS ensures that decryption keys are stored securely and distributed only to authenticated devices. The solution is built on cryptographic and secure electronic transaction concepts used in e-commerce applications, providing the same high level of digital TV security that Verimatrix is recognized for in more than 600 pay-TV operator deployments.

Steve Oetegenn, chief sales and marketing officer, Verimatrix, said: “Our VCAS solutions enable Slovak Telekom to deliver the most competitive platform today, and will evolve with innovative multimedia services that provide subscribers with the content and delivery choices that they desire.”
