ITV Teams Up With Friend MTS In The Battle Against Piracy
Friend MTS, a leading provider of video content security solutions, has announced that ITV, the UK’s largest commercial broadcaster, has chosen Friend MTS’s anti-piracy services to help protect ITV content.
With Friend MTS’s 24x7 Global Monitoring service, ITV will protect its main linear channels across broadcast and streaming platforms.
