United Cloud Strengthens Streaming Security With Extension Of NAGRAVISION Anti-Piracy Deal

NAGRAVISION has announced that United Cloud, end-to-end solutions provider for telecoms and media, will continue to leverage NAGRA NexGuard Forensic Watermarking within its antipiracy platform for their clients in seven European markets.

By relying on NAGRA NexGuard Forensic Watermarking as part of their streaming security strategy, United Cloud can safeguard their clients from piracy and shut down content leaks at the source and in real-time across all key operating geographies.  The deployment sees the continued growth of NAGRAVISION’s forensic watermarking solution, which now includes server-side watermarking to combat pirate activity such as CDN leeching. 

NAGRA NexGuard Forensic Watermarking solutions are used by major pay-TV and streaming operators to deter and combat piracy of high value content assets, including premium VOD and live sports.  They help identify the source of a content leak quickly and efficiently so that effective anti-piracy action can be taken. NexGuard forensic watermarks can be applied at a consumer session and set-top box device level to pinpoint the source of a piracy leak including those used to feed illicit streaming servers, enabling appropriate anti-piracy action. 

NAGRA NexGuard forensic watermarking solutions are used by leading content owners worldwide to protect against content theft.  Used to protect a variety of video, audio and still image assets, from production to distribution, the technology is approved by U.S. studios and leading sports leagues to safeguard high-value or sensitive content from piracy.
