Ott drm technology is designed to protect the video content during transport, at rest, and during consumption. Although such technology can involve some very advanced security concepts, OTT streaming service operators still need to pay detailed attention to the overall system architecture that is deployed and avoid loopholes that allow hackers to defeat the purpose of DRM protected content.
In this workflow, the subscriber’s device and player application communicates with a proxy service managed by the OTT service provider, which redirects the requests back to the multi-DRM service (e.g. ExpressPlay DRM)
Moreover, similar to other professional cloud services, a typical multi-DRM workflow requires some form of authorization, which can be implemented by leveraging a secure DRM token. A secure DRM token enables a robust and secure mechanism to deliver several settings and parameters to the multi-DRM service. The secure DRM token is encrypted to ensure confidentiality and includes a digital signature to ensure integrity.
