"Security in Post Smartcard Era" Geir Bjorndal
The proliferation of connected TV devices, from game consoles to Smart TVs and streamer devices, means Pay TV operators have the chance to extend their reach to existing subscribers, making the service available on different TVs cost-effectively.
With more connected devices and better broadband and CDN technologies, and more interest than ever in turning free-to-air homes into light Pay TV users, we could see the emergence of new OTT delivery and business models in the next few years, including 'offnet', 'Pay TV-Lite' and even OTT-only for the Pay TV market. In all cases the platform operator needs to present its service within an app on the connected device and guarantee that it is secure.
During this Forum, a group of industry experts debated The Operator as an App topic.

6. The post smartcard era
• Piracy models moving on: • Price flexibility need in high growth emerging markets
Was: Card & box cloning
Now: Control word sharing & • All operators building, acquiring, leasing, and
broadband redistribution leveraging compound and hybrid delivery networks
• Staggered subscriber transitions to advanced services
• Rapid transition to IP and 2-way
(digital, VOD, HD, IP apps, personalization)
networks enable better tools for
update management • Only software can support consumer-provided
devices
• Low price SoCs now incorporate
advanced security features • Move from parallel in-home multi-STB distribution to
home gateway and any-location storage/rights/access
results in results in
Dramatic decrease in value of Dramatic increase in need for unified, flexible
smartcard security software-based solutions
Most recent 2 generations of Pay TV video networks (IPTV and OTT) based entirely on
software security…

12. CA+DRM+WM = Revenue Security
Revenue threats and the service model are shifting
at the same time
Cardless security solutions are both economical
today and better adapted for long term business
relevance
Watermarking options safeguard content beyond
the STB
An integrated multi-network security approach
enables the best operator and consumer service
delivery environment
#multinetwork #TVConnect
13. Operators should build their
revenue security strategy around:
Maximum control word sharing and content
redistribution protection
Layered security techniques for broadcast and OTT
video business models
Being prepared to address the future security
requirements of content owners for OTT video

Hinweis der Redaktion
>Security in video distribution - the good old approach – linear TV to STB and security was(and still is) smartcard-based access control
>Security in video distribution - smartcard-based access control>Improved infrastructure has enabled new business opportunities>Connected devices – changes the game>OTT – unmanaged net and device
Operators largest worry today is control word sharing>The clue here is to protect the control word in best possible way>Secure chipset in a smart card less solution a very strong alternative>Recipe to fight such piracy different than old recipesA growing worry is content redistribution over internet>Studios and content providers about to require additional security to be able to trace and fight misuse>Maximal tracing possibilities within the content seems to be increasingly important
The threats of yesterday are not the same as those of today - Or tomorrowMore then 80% of operators interviewed see control word sharing and redistribution as major threat todayMore then 85% of operators interviewed see control word sharing and redistribution as major threat 5 years from today
Operator should have the impression of relating to one security system Service delivery seem less independent of delivery network and format of content
