PREVENTING UNAUTHORIZED POACHING OF SET TOP BOX ASSETS

Номер: CA0002694201A1
Принадлежит:

To prevent poaching of an Internet Protocol (IP) set top box (STB) asset or similar network computing device from one system operator to another, code executing in the IP STB not only authenticates downloaded software images using a public key provided in a serial-number assigned digital certificate, but also confirms that the serial number appears on a signed whitelist, or does not appear on a signed blacklist. The code exe-cuting in the STB further preferably enforces a rule that only the authority that signed the already-loaded whitelist/blacklist may replace it with a new list. Such a sticky whitelist/blacklist ensures that if the STB boots or resets in a new network, the existing authentication list will not be replaced by a list that is valid for a new or different network, and, as a result, that new software code images will not be authenticated.

A method of broadcasting using a virtual channel table in a broadcasting protocol comprises, if a virtual channel is an inactive channel, omitting a corresponding service location descriptor from the virtual channel table to indicate that the virtual channel is inactive. The method includes transmitting the virtual channel table to a receiver and determining whether the virtual channel is inactive based on the presence of a service location descriptor in the virtual channel table by parsing the virtual channel table. The inactive channel is a channel that is not presently carrying a broadcast program but is scheduled to carry a broadcast program at a predetermined later time from a broadcasting station without local viewer interaction. The inactive channel is capable of being automatically skipped.

Apparatus and methods for enhanced tuner efficiency, wherein tuner resources function to permit multiple content streams to be demultiplexed and thus made available for subsequent display. In one embodiment, Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) comprises a resource manager on which a guide application is run to control the tuning of an available tuner resource. This approach obviates reliance on OCAP or other proprietary vendor architecture applications. In another variant, the CPE is adapted to receive RF source data from a wideband tuner, or multiple tuners. The CPE may also be utilized in conjunction with other system configurations designed to enforce a security or other policies within a premises network. The CPE may also employ 'look ahead' capabilities to anticipate a QAM stream content before it is received.

Systems and methods are disclosed herein for distributing content over a local area network (LAN) between a first device within the LAN and a second device within the LAN. A first device multicasts a LAN-specific content beacon over the LAN. The LAN-specific content beacon includes an identifier uniquely identifying the first device. A second device sends a response to the LAN-specific content beacon requesting secondary content to be integrated into a display of the second device. The first device generates the secondary content based on profile information associated with the second device and unicasts the secondary content to the second device for integration into primary content being generated for display at the second device.

A computerized device can implement a content player to access a content stream using a network interface, the content stream comprising encrypted content and an embedded license comprising a content key encrypted according to a global key accessible by the content player. The content player determines whether a token meeting an authorization condition is present and uses the global key to decrypt the content key only if such a token is present. The authorization condition may be evaluated at least in part based on data included in the content stream. The authorization condition can include presence of a token having a content ID matching a corresponding ID in the license; presence of a token with a correct device ID; presence of a token signed according to a digital signature identified in the licenses; and/or presence of a token that is unexpired, with expiration evaluated based on a time-to-live indicator in the token.
