- Network dimension – Best of breed encryption and key management for the widest range of delivery networks, including broadcast satellite, cable and terrestrial, IPTV and hybrid, video-on-demand (VOD), mobile, Internet TV and over-the-top (OTT).
- Device dimension – Beyond the living room to computers and on-the-go applications. The technology approach includes a hardened, downloadable Verimatrix ViewRight™ security core for STBs, PCs and Macs in IPTV and hybrid applications, as well as mobile/CE devices including iPhone/iPad and Android using adaptive rate streaming.
- Threat dimension – Since not all threats to digital TV security look alike, VCAS offers a layered set of tools and techniques to enable a flexible system protection profile. Features such as hardening, fingerprinting, watermarking and clone detection help
operators address revenue loss from theft of service and rapid renewability provides
a fast countermeasure capability.

VCAS™ 3 – Beyond Content Protection to Revenue Security
VCAS 3 is the latest generation of the Verimatrix Video Content Authority System (VCAS™). It provides the tools and support that digital TV operators require in order to address the new opportunities arising from the accelerating convergence of video delivery over various types of networks - whether managed or unmanaged - to a multitude of devices. This convergence must encompass a proactive revenue protection and enhancement approach that enables service operators to cast a much wider net with their service offerings. As a consequence, the central value proposition for the pay-TV enterprise shifts beyond that of content protection alone, towards the broader perspective of revenue security.
