Pay-TV operators are increasingly requiring 3-screen support to offer compelling services. The objective is to improve subscriber uptake and loyalty by targeting the widest possible audience, anywhere and anytime. They are looking to content security suppliers to solve the "transparency problem" that has bedeviled the music industry in its transition to an online marketplace.

Steve will discuss the requirements of a common security platform for all devices and networks from a single head-end. He will address issues such as:

  • Harmonizing license rights and entitlements across two or more DRMs schemes.
  • The architecture required to enable transparent consumption on different CE devices that include specific (whether proprietary or standards-based) DRM support.

Peter Charissé, managing director, ANGA Cable, was quoted in Digital TV Europe that they are "especially pleased that providers of conditional access systems booked significantly more floor space this year."

Verimatrix will be demonstrating its VCAS™ for DVB solution at booth #K17.

CEO Corner: NAB 2009 Wrap-Up Verimatrix at NAB 2009
Tom Munro, CEO of Verimatrix

NAB is one of the year's major events for us. It’s a great opportunity to sync up face-to-face with a broad base of our customers and partners. As for the traffic this year, I will echo some comments I’ve heard – the attendance was down, but the quality of attendees remained high.

One thing that the NAB experience demonstrates is that the technology innovation around video delivery certainly hasn’t slowed down. We are seeing a rapid evolution of TV platforms and services, which is feeding into the overall converged TV movement. Here are some observations from our team’s immersion in these trends:

We are proud to have passed our recent ISO 9001:2000 audit with flying colors! Verimatrix is committed to maintaining high standards for our software development, support and business processes related to our VCAS suite of solutions. This enables us to more easily meet the needs of large systems integrators and tier one telcos across the globe.

Along those lines, we also recently received high marks on a supplier quality audit with one of our major reseller partners.

We are very proud of our company culture that reinforces high standards in everything we do.
