A method for protecting live content in a multimedia system. An Acquisition Point (120) that receives content (CNT) distributes it in a network (100) comprising a recording device (130) and a rendering device (110). The content is associated with a license (CL) comprising a content identifier and the identity (APID) of the sending Acquisition Point. If the content is live, the license indicates that the content is "live protected". A rendering device that receives the content and its license asks 208 the Acquisition Point indicated in the license if it may render the content. If the content is not live, e.g. if it is replayed later, the permission is given. The Acquisition Point also stores a counter that indicates the number simultaneous viewings. If this number equals a maximum number of viewings when a request is received, the Acquisition Point asks all devices if they access the content to check if its count is correct and, if not, permits access to the requesting device.

A media license file is generated to protect the encoded data, where the underlying information relevant to the media data may be hidden through encryption or other means in order to foster security. The algorithm(s) for encoding may be provided using a shared library, combined with an encoding payload that provides the minimum information set required to form the single message. A partial decoder may apply pattern matching information in the encoded payload in order to confirm that the encoding is actually present and is proper. Accordingly, the payload must be successfully decoded and verified before the underlying data may be decoded.

Media content is delivered to a variety of mobile devices in a protected manner based on client-server architecture with a symmetric (private-key) encryption scheme. A media preparation server (MPS) encrypts media content and publishes and stores it on a content delivery server (CDS), such as a server in a content distribution network (CDN). Client devices can freely obtain the media content from the CDS and can also freely distribute the media content further. They cannot, however, play the content without first obtaining a decryption key and license. Access to decryption keys is via a centralized rights manager, providing a desired level of DRM control.

ANTI-SPLITTER VIOLATION CONDITIONAL KEY CHANGE

Принадлежит: NAGRASTAR LLC

Systems and methods are disclosed for performing anti-piracy countermeasures in order to prevent unauthorized access of protected content. A conditional access system may be modified to include a counter. The counter is incremented every time the conditional access system receives a request that is a potential indication of pirate activity. The counter may also be decremented every time the conditional access system receives a request indicative of legitimate activity. If the conditional access system receives a management message containing a key required to access content keys, the conditional access system checks the counter. If the counter is below a threshold value, the conditional access system obtains the key. However, if the counter is above the threshold value, the conditional access system disregards the key contained in the management message, thereby losing access to protected content.

The "color stripe" process is well known in the video field for preventing copying by analog video tape recorders of video content, and operates by altering the phase of a portion of the video signal color burst. Here, a weakened version of the color stripe process is employed in a video signal whereby the color burst phase alterations are reduced or attenuated so there is no copy prevention effect on a typical video tape recorder. However the weakened color stripe process is still sufficient to be detectable by a suitable detector located in a compliant device, so the detected presence of the color stripe serves as an encoded indication of copy control or other content control for the video signal by the compliant device.

Methods and systems for encoding and protecting data using digital signature and watermarking techniques

Номер: US20120151216A1
Принадлежит: Intertrust Technologies Corp

Systems and methods are provided for protecting and managing electronic data signals. In one embodiment a strong watermark is inserted in a data signal that is divided into a sequence of blocks, and a digital signature for each block is embedded in the signal via a watermark. The signal is then stored and distributed. When attempts are made to use or access the signal, the signal is checked for the presence of a watermark containing the digital signature for the desired portion of the signal. If the watermark is found, the digital signature is extracted and used to verify the authenticity of the desired portion of the signal. If not found, the signal is checked for the presence of the strong watermark, which if found causes the system to inhibit further use of the signal, and if not found further use of the signal is allowed.

Audio Fingerprint for Content Identification

Номер: US20130160038A1
Принадлежит: Yahoo Inc until 2017

Methods and system for identifying multimedia content streaming through a television includes retrieving an audio signal from a multimedia content selected for rendering at the television. The retrieved audio signal is partitioned into a plurality of segments of small intervals. A particular segment is analyzed to identify acoustic modulation and to generate a distinct vector for the particular segment based on the acoustic modulation, wherein the vector defines a unique fingerprint of the particular segment of the audio signal. A content database on a server is queried using the vector of the particular segment to obtain content information for multimedia content that matches the fingerprint of the particular segment. The content information is used to identify the multimedia content and the source of the multimedia content that matches the audio signal received for rendering.

The system and method for streaming media to a viewer and managing the media comprises an enhanced service routing processor (ESRP), a real time switch management system (RTSMS), a name routing processor (NRP), and a managed media switch (MMS). The RTSMS has a reservation system. The ESRP receives media from an owner, manages the media according to media rules and order rules defined by the owner, and distributes the media to one or more switches, such as the MMS, according to the media rules and the order rules. The RTSMS is configured to receive the media rules and to receive a viewer's media request via the reservation server. The reservation system of the RTSMS processes the media request according to the media rules and builds a reservation for the requested media. The RTSMS generates the reservation to the viewer and to the NRP. The NRP receives the reservation data from the viewer and from the RTSMS. The NRP processes the reservation data and locates an MMS that can stream the media to the viewer. The NRP transmits the IP address of the MMS to the viewer and transmits the reservation data to the MMS. The viewer initiates a session or connection with the MMS using the reservation number. If the reservation data from the viewer matches the reservation data from the NRP, the MMS streams the media to the viewer.

Correlation-based system for watermarking continuous digital media

Принадлежит: Individual

A correlation-based system for watermarking continuous digital media at the system application level. It is a post-compression process for watermarking where no a priori knowledge of the underlying compression algorithm is required. Per each compressed media frame, a current unique digital signature is generated based on the data from the current compressed frame plus the digital signature that has been previously generated. The signature thus generated is then used in conjunction with the next compressed frame to generate the next unique digital signature. All digital signatures are correlated according to the above process until a “reset” signal is issued. A new chain of correlated digital signatures is produced by the system with a pre-determined initial signature.
