IPTV services launched for BSNL customers

23 March 2009

Beijing - Verimatrix has announced that its Video Content Authority System (VCAS) for IPTV has been deployed to protect IPTV services to Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd’s (BSNL) customers. The state-owned telecommunications operator has embarked on a nation-wide launch in conjunction with Smart Digivision Private Ltd. (SDPL), and is planning to serve more than three million IPTV subscribers in 93 cities over the next three years.

Subscribers will have access to more than 140 television channels and an extensive on-demand movie library with premium titles at no extra cost. Verimatrix’s software-based content security solution outperformed alternatives due to its ability to support a fully layered content protection strategy and a partner ecosystem. One component of that strategy is VideoMark, Verimatrix’s end-to-end forensic watermarking solution for digital video. VideoMark allows the operator to trace illicit re-broadcasting and content copying, which addresses a major source of revenue loss.
