Verimatrix Counterspy offers the media and entertainment (M&E) industry one of the first anti-piracy solutions that combines deep cybersecurity capabilities with video-specific piracy prevention tools. This recent recognition further highlights why Verimatrix Counterspy stands out as the most powerful tool for streaming operators looking to gain the upper hand against today’s clever video pirates. Verimatrix Counterspy levels the playing field in the ongoing fight to protect revenues while still ensuring an excellent user experience across numerous device types.

It authenticates each app instance and ties it to a specific subscriber, ensuring transparency and control over access. By safeguarding the authentication token from theft or manipulation, Counterspy prevents abuse and ensures legitimate access to content, going far above and beyond traditional DRM vendors.
