ARRIS's award-winning SecureMedia solution streamlines content processing and protection while meeting or exceeding the most stringent Hollywood studio security requirements. KVH's on-demand IP-based content is protected at all times as it is distributed via satellite to, and stored on the ship's media server and then delivered to set-tops, onboard computers, tablets and smartphones.
"Our customers don't want to lose the programming they enjoy at home when they go to sea," said Jim Dodez, Senior Vice President for Marketing and Strategic Planning, KVH Industries. "With ARRIS SecureMedia, our IP-MobileCast platform delivers that protected content to the device of the customer's choice, while ensuring access is restricted to appropriate parties. We began using SecureMedia earlier this year, and we are extremely happy with the quick development cycle and ease of deployment of the technology that has ensured a successful launch."
"Smartphones, tablets, connected TVs and other IP-enabled devices have fueled the 'TV Everywhere' phenomenon, changing our viewing habits and expectations," said Fred Ellis, Senior Director, Content Protection Solutions, ARRIS. "KVH is addressing consumer demand with its innovative IP-MobileCast service, reaching ships at sea wherever they may be. The design and flexibility of the ARRIS SecureMedia solution allows our technology to be easily integrated and deliver the end-to-end security that is crucial to the success of any entertainment service, at land or at sea." |
