Stop piracy before it starts. Discover Verimatrix Counterspy.

 OTT requires a different
anti-piracy approach.

The rise of unmanaged devices has opened the door to sophisticated pirate attacks. Weak CDNs, exploited DRMs, and unprotected apps result in CDN leeching, millions of unauthorized streams, and illegal IPTV platforms, causing significant revenue loss.
Modern pirates have evolved: stealing premium content no longer requires advanced hacking skills. Operators have lost control over who has access to their content, making a real-time, device-level solution essential to prevent piracy before it impacts subscribers or revenue.

Why traditional DRM isn’t enough.

Multi DRM is not enough. Traditional anti-piracy tools react only after attacks have caused damage, leaving revenue, subscribers, and premium content at risk.

Operators need real-time, device-level protection to prevent attacks before they escalate, stopping credential abuse, unauthorized devices, and CDN exploitation before it impacts business performance.

Gain back control.

Verimatrix Counterspy is a real-time, device-level anti-piracy solution that stops attacks before they escalate, giving operators full control over every stream.

Key benefits:

By continuously monitoring apps, accounts, and devices, Counterspy turns reactive anti-piracy into proactive protection, preventing piracy before it impacts revenue, content integrity, or user experience.

How Counterspy works.

Counterspy is an anti-piracy agent utilizing proprietary app security technology, enabling operators to add deep defensive countermeasures and monitor clients in real time, efficiently stopping piracy at the source.

Step 1: Prevent

Stop piracy at the source by blocking emulation scripts and enforcing the use of original apps.

Step 2: Protect

Ensure all clients on iOS, Android, and HTML5 have initial protection from unauthorized access.

Step 3: Monitor & Shut Down

Continuously monitor streams and devices, shutting down compromised sessions in real time.

Step 4: Targeted Countermeasures

Apply device and app attestation, watermarking, and controlled countermeasures to neutralize threats without affecting legitimate users.
