Abstract

Today conditional access (CA) and digital rights management (DRM) systems for digital TV, either broadcast or broadband, show an impressive lack of interoperability. The German Federal Network Agency (Bundesnetzagentur) has organized a collaboration of industry experts defining a truly interoperable architecture for CA/DRM systems for broadcast, broadband and “over the top (OTT)”. The architecture allows owners of consumer premises equipment (CPE), like set top boxes, personal video recorders or TV sets, to have embedded CA/DRM from any vendor. The required security kernel can be downloaded in a designated software container with standardized interfaces. The download process is protected by proven methods, and under control of a trusted third party. Open hardware facilities in the CPE with proven security further support enhanced security, ensuring the best possible protection of the content. The result is a highly consumer friendly interoperability solution, for the first time truly merging TV over Internet and broadcast, without any compromise regarding security.

水平市场用户友好终端联盟-可交换条件访问和数字版权管理系统

目前，用于广播或宽带数字电视的条件访问(CA)和数字版权管理(DRM)系统明显缺乏互操作性。德国联邦网络局(Bundesnetzagentur)组织了一次行业专家合作，为广播、宽带和“OTT”的CA/DRM系统定义了一个真正可互操作的架构。该体系结构允许消费者场所设备(CPE)的所有者(如机顶盒、个人录像机或电视机)拥有来自任何供应商的嵌入式CA/DRM。所需的安全内核可以在具有标准化接口的指定软件容器中下载。下载过程由经过验证的方法保护，并在受信任的第三方的控制下。CPE中具有可靠安全性的开放硬件设施进一步支持增强的安全性，确保对内容提供最佳保护。其结果是一个高度消费者友好的互操作性解决方案，第一次真正融合了互联网电视和广播，而没有任何安全方面的妥协。
