Latin America. Nagra announced that its NexGuard Streaming watermark solution for OTT has been integrated with Akamai. The integrated solution leverages Akamai's edge platform to bring an additional level of anti-piracy compliance and revenue protection to rights holders and content owners.
This solution makes it possible to stop pirated video streams of live sports and premium VOD content in real time and increase the traceability of those premium assets.
NexGuard Streaming enables content owners and pay-TV operators to actively fight commercial piracy, identifying the source of a content leak within minutes and enabling targeted anti-piracy actions to stop the transmission of illicit content as a result.
NexGuard Streaming incorporates a session-specific forensic watermark for premium OTT VOD and live OTT channels, including sports. It works with any OTT streaming device and client application, eliminating the need for any device-side integration. It easily scales to millions of concurrent sessions with CDN caching and works with all common drm and transmission formats.
