| Oversi and NDS Partner to Deliver Secured Premium Content over P2P Networks |
Highlights:
Petach Tikva, Israel, September 4, 2007: Oversi, experts in Peer-to-Peer (P2P) caching and content delivery solutions, and NDS, the leading provider of technology solutions for digital pay-TV, are presenting their integrated, end-to-end solution for delivering secured, DRM-protected content over P2P networks direct to PCs and other portable media devices at IBC 2007. (Visit the NDS Stand No. 1.171.) The joint Oversi and NDS solution uses the power and economics of P2P distribution to extend the delivery of broadcast content to new users and new media devices with assured quality of service. The solution combines NDS VideoGuard PC™, a complete DRM and service platform for PCs, with Oversi's powerful P2P caching and content delivery platform, OverCache™. Based on distributed grid computing technology and massive throughput, OverCache enhances P2P content distribution by delivering more bandwidth to users over existing infrastructures, guaranteeing superior quality of service. With the P2P technology embedded in its client/server software, NDS' VideoGuard PC retrieves files from the P2P network, powered by OverCache, enabling accelerated peer-assisted content distribution. Integrating P2P technology with VideoGuard® DRM content protection, the joint NDS/Oversi solution enables content providers to meet the demand for live TV programs and Video on Demand services with complete, built-in, security safeguards, while allowing flexible business models. Leveraging the P2P network's inherent resources, service providers and content providers also benefit from delivery that is more cost-efficient. With this joint solution, incremental costs decrease with the addition of more users. Highly scalable, the solution enables service providers and broadcasters to cope with the growing demand for bandwidth without overloading the network. Joseph Deutsch, NDS Vice President of Business Development, said, "Content providers have been hesitant to use P2P networks for premium content delivery because they were not assured that their content would be secure. They now have a solution they can trust, protected by our proven VideoGuard conditional access and DRM technology, used by over 75 million TV subscribers worldwide. This joint solution enables our customers to scale their services to meet the growing consumer demand for broadcast-quality Internet TV and VOD - anytime, anywhere." Eitan Efron, Vice President Marketing and Business Development of Oversi, said, "Taking advantage of P2P networks, this joint solution from Oversi and NDS provides an excellent distribution channel for premium content while ensuring minimum operating costs for service providers and broadcasters. Our solution also delivers long-tail content with good quality of service, opening the door for new P2P-driven monetization opportunities."
