Nagra has moved to bring together what were previously two separate efforts: the historic business of protecting content distributed in cinemas and protecting content being delivered via set-top boxes or streaming.
“We now have one entity, and it makes a lot of sense because they are intertwined,” says Jean-Philippe Plantevin, VP, products and services, Nagra anti-piracy and NexGuard, Nagra Kudelski. “And it is very clear that sports[-content creators] are starting to understand what the movie industry has known for some time: you have to look at piracy on a global basis.”
