Viaccess-Orca partners with Rambus

November 28, 2017

Viaccess-Orca, a global player in the protection and monetisation of content, has collaborated with Rambus, a lspecialist in digital security, services, semiconductor, and IP products, to strengthen its VO Shield Root of Trust (RoT) solution for dynamic, best-in-class security.

The CryptoMedia Content Protection Core from Rambus complements VO Shield by enabling a hardware RoT to be embedded directly in the multimedia chipset of devices, including TVs and STBs. VO Shield is a hardware-based security function embedded inside the VO Sentinel solution and dedicated to fighting control word sharing and chipset breaching.

“This collaboration will be a cutting-edge response to the compromises that exist in hardware devices used to watch pay-TV services,” said Bret Sewell, Senior Vice President and General Manager of the Rambus Security Division. “By adding our CryptoMedia Content Security Platform and Protection Core to its VO Shield solution, Viaccess-Orca will set a new standard for content security. We look forward to building on this collaboration and reaching new heights in content protection.”
