Digital security firm Irdeto has announced a strategic partnership with Aspera to enable real-time forensic watermarking capabilities to track leaked assets and identify sources of pirated content.
The new partnership will combine Irdeto Tracemark with Asperas FASP transfer technology with the claimed result that content owners and distributors can rapidly and efficiently deliver and receive content all over the world while protecting it against redistribution piracy.
The content industry needs a fast, secure way to deliver content and be able to trace and track it throughout its lifecycle, explained Irdeto VP of Americas Richard Frankland.
Forensic watermarking is an essential security element of a comprehensive content protection programme.
The Irdeto and Aspera partnership was essential in order for Fox to deploy a forensic watermarking solution seamlessly without affecting the user experience and having minimal impact on the workflow, added Ian Harvey, SVP Advanced Technology, Twentieth Century Fox.
This managed service and end-to-end solution will greatly improve the transfer of large forensically marked files to our customers, allowing for rapid sharing while enabling premium content tracking to help manage redistribution piracy.
