Austin, TX(09 Nov 2011)
BuyDRM™, a pioneer in the commercial deployment of DRM technologies, announced today that FotoKem has selected the company’s flagship product, the KeyOS platform. FotoKem has selected the platform to provide content access protection support for a variety of secure playback scenarios, as part of their larger post production efforts.
BuyDRM will deploy a robust in-network encryption capability for FotoKem with the KeyOS Encryption Service for Windows Server. Then, utilizing a multi-featured playback application built upon the Microsoft Media Platform, BuyDRM will provide FotoKem with the highest level of security available for streaming and downloadable media. As part of the overall security practice, FotoKem’s deployment of a file-level encryption platform enables their content to travel in a more flexible and secure manner.
BuyDRM's Smooth DRM Service supports encrypted playback on connected TVs, connected Blu-Ray players, today's most popular gaming consoles, PC and Mac computing platforms and iOS and Android devices. As a "Studio Approved" DRM platform, KeyOS supports today’s most popular B2B and B2C deployments for digital media playback.
"To further our commitment in securing content within FotoKem's nextSPOT system, we selected BuyDRM to enable us with an enterprise grade digital rights management solution," said Freddy Goeske, FotoKem's GM of Production Software. "The fact that BuyDRM leverages Microsoft's PlayReady technology not only provided us a great fit for our Silverlight-based application – it also gave us a comfort level of technology that's already being used in the industry."
"As one of the nation's largest post production companies, FotoKem's operations pose unique problems that we are excited to work to solve," said Christopher Levy, CEO and Founder, BuyDRM. "The BuyDRM and FotoKem partnership will assuredly result in a new era of technologies and solutions that will raise the bar for our competition in this marketplace" Levy added.
