| 13 January 2021 Leading South Korea telco SK Broadband has selected NAGRA’s NexGuard forensic watermarking technology to protect its premium content on a range of IPTV set-top boxes. The NexGuard Pay-TV solution is designed to protect premium content investments and, in the event of a breach, will enable the operator to trace any illicit recording or sharing of content from its BTV service and identify the set-top box from which it originated. NexGuard Pay-TV is designed to protect premium pay-TV services delivered via a set-top box, including 4K Ultra HD, premium VOD and live sports content. It embeds a subscriber-specific forensic watermark in a managed pay-TV client device (set-top box or smart TV). The integration for SK Broadband is part of the SK Broadband app for Android TV and is supported by all the major chipset vendors, requiring no additional video processing on the head-end side.
