Verimatrix, the specialist in securing and enhancing revenue for multi-network, multi-screen digital TV services around the globe, this week announced that it has extended its relationship with Bouygues Telecom to provide the Video Content Authority System (VCAS™) for Broadcast-Hybrid to its security arsenal. 

The French mobile phone, Internet service provider and IPTV company and a longtime Verimatrix customer, deploys the solution to protect its next-generation, Android TV box client devices, which offer a new class of premium home video service.

VCAS for Broadcast-Hybrid is a cardless revenue security solution that draws on the strengths of the global number one VCAS for IPTV, and the highly successful VCAS for Internet TV, to better enable combinations of secure multicast linear video with advanced adaptive bitrate streaming on-demand and catch-up services.

According to Verimatrix, the solution is well-suited for Bouygues Telecom's IPTV service, which is delivered to set-top boxes (STBs), tablets, iPads and portable displays, enabling subscribers to seamlessly consume broadcast video, video on demand (VoD) and DVR content on additional screens anywhere in the home.

"Verimatrix is a reliable partner for Bouygues Telecom, and we trust them to provide us with robust, cost-effective revenue security solutions to support the full range of our multi-screen initiatives. We consistently choose to collaborate with them because of their ongoing commitment to innovation, as well as their flexibility and ability to easily scale when we add new services."

-          Pierre Schaller, SVP Innovation and Strategic Alignment at Bouygues Telecom

"Project Miami" is based on the Android OS and will deliver the best of premium IPTV and Android applications on TV. Ericsson served as the systems integrator for the project, with trusted Verimatrix ecosystem partners IfeelSmart, iWedia, and Marvell also playing critical roles. We are delighted to again collaborate with our valued customer Bouygues Telecom. VCAS for Broadcast-Hybrid offers Bouygues Telecom a compelling software-centric video service security solution that will enable them to better respond to new standards, new opportunities and the rapidly changing market dynamics."
