Verimatrix Counterspy wins 2024 CSI Award for Best Anti-Piracy Protection

Counterspy redefines security for anywhere, any device entertainment.

Counterspy goes beyond traditional methods to ensure top-tier security for media app subscribers, safeguarding content across various devices.

It fills the gap in authentication created by the shift from operator-controlled set top box hardware to retail or app-based OTT clients, allowing operators to distribute content confidently while preventing piracy. With Counterspy, each app instance is authenticated and tied 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 above and beyond traditional DRM vendors.

"By protecting content integrity across devices, Counterspy allows us to offer a new way to extend anti-piracy protection to operators across apps and devices, while providing seamless, entertainment experiences that today's discerning consumers demand.”
