Stands among Verimatrix’s first partners to further enhance its anti-piracy capabilities with concurrent integration of advanced Streamkeeper and Watermarking anti-piracy tools

AIX-EN-PROVENCE, France & SAN DIEGO, September 09, 2022–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Regulatory News:

Verimatrix, (Euronext Paris: VMX) (Paris:VMX), the leader in empowering the modern connected world with human-centric security, today announced that Madrid-based NexPlayer has integrated its NexPlayer multi-screen player SDK with the Verimatrix StreamkeeperSM Multi-DRM platform and associated Verimatrix Watermarking tools to further protect its customers’ valuable entertainment content.

Acclaimed for efficiently addressing issues of complexity, security, and video quality, NexPlayer works with any device, including Android, iOS, Smart TVs like Samsung, Hisense, and LG, game consoles like Xbox and PlayStation, Unity games, and HTML5 browsers. It offers unique code checking that ensures viewers can enjoy the highest quality, most secure and reliable playback experience. In June 2021, Verimatrix announced an initial integration with the Verimatrix Video Content Authority System and the Verimatrix Multi-DRM Core solution, the predecessor to the current Verimatrix Streamkeeper.

Today’s announcement marks the remarkable progress of the partnership and additional security enhancements that will be available soon through the integration. Verimatrix Streamkeeper Multi-DRM delivers studio-approved content protection best practices, with a meticulous focus on ensuring superior video viewing experiences. Streamkeeper, an adaptive cybersecurity tool that goes beyond DRM, enables video service providers to manage revenue risk in a world of ever-changing threats.

By leveraging the power of both Streamkeeper and its Watermarking tools, NexPlayer customers can quickly and seamlessly use both client and server-side watermarks that secure the entire path of video consumption on almost all platforms. With protection during post-production and distribution, video service providers and others can quickly identify piracy and shut it down in moments.

“NexPlayer has partnered with Verimatrix since the early days of the OTT industry and has brought together some of the most popular OTT services. We are very proud to continue this partnership and take it to the next level,” said Carlos Lucas, CEO of NexPlayer. “We will certainly continue our strong partnership with Verimatrix by combining our technologies to jointly serve the most premium video service providers worldwide.”

“Verimatrix is ​​pleased to announce the evolution of this integration partnership with NexPlayer as it further validates the demand for content protection solutions that inspire unparalleled trust while enabling faster time to market with super-secure streaming content such as live sports, premiere movies and even video game content,” said Sebastian Braun, senior director of product management at Verimatrix. “This use of Streamkeeper and Watermarking gives video service providers a uniquely powerful ability to detect illegal streams and their origins over OTT networks, and even securely use multiple camera angles for events.”
