摘要:
A multimedia content distribution method including a) storing an item of a multimedia content, b) firstly transcoding the content for playback on a first multimedia device, c) generating a content ID of the firstly transcoded content, d) storing the content ID of the firstly transcoded content in association with the stored content, e) accessing the stored content using the content ID of the firstly transcoded content, and f) secondly transcoding the stored content for playback on a second multimedia device.
摘要:
A key distribution system for controlling access to content by rendering devices, comprising an epoch module to provide epochs, each epoch including service key periods, a service key module to provide a batch of service keys, a group module to provide group keys for each epoch such that each rendering device is assigned a group key grouping together the devices having the same group key, thereby defining groups, in different epochs the devices are grouped differently, an encryption module to encrypt, for each epoch, each service key in the batch of service keys, individually with each group key yielding a plurality of group-key-encrypted service keys from each service key, and a delivery module to distribute to the devices, for each one of the epochs, the group-key-encrypted service keys for the batch of service keys and the group keys of the one epoch. Related apparatus and methods are also described.

摘要:
A digital rights management system (FIG. 1) for a mobile telephone (10), including a controlled content disk (16) to store content in an encrypted format, and a mobile telephone processor (18) to run a plurality of mobile telephone applications (36, 38, 40) and a secure device driver (22) thereon, the mobile telephone processor (18) being operationally associated with the controlled content disk (16), the mobile telephone applications (36, 38, 40) being unable to decrypt content from the encrypted format, the secure device driver (22) having a receiving module (24) to receive a request from one of the mobile telephone applications (36, 38, 40) to access the content, a validation module (26) to validate the request, and a transport module (28) to substantially directly transfer the content to the one mobile telephone application, contingent upon a positive result of the validating of the validation module (26). Related apparatus and methods are also described.
摘要:
An end-user device, including a processor to prepare barcode-input data including (a) at least one of an identification of a user of the end-user device, and an identification of the end-user device, and (b) data based on activity of at least one of the end-user device, the user of the end-user device, and a security element removably inserted into the end-user device, and prepare a two-dimensional barcode including the barcode input data, the two-dimension barcode being prepared for displaying on a display in a manner suitable for scanning by a communication device. Related apparatus and methods are also included.
摘要:
A system and method for protecting content is described, the system and method comprising a content item which has been segmented into at least two portions, each portion being encrypted according to a different encryption key, a single content rights license associated with the content item, the license including at least two encrypted decryption keys operative to decrypt at least one of the at least two portions, such that any two encrypted decryption keys of the at least two encrypted decryption keys includes a first key which is less securely encrypted than the second key, a plurality of decryption keys, each one of the decryption keys being able to decrypt at least one of the at least two encrypted decryption keys, a decryptor for decrypting the at least one of the at least two encrypted decryption keys, and a second decryptor for decrypting, with the at least one of the at least two encrypted decryption keys, at least one portion of the at least two portions of the content item.
摘要:
A device including a receiver to receive a media stream including media content for a plurality of services, the content packed into packets each having a header and payload including a part of the content of one of the services, a mapping table(s) directly or indirectly mapping, the services to packet-IDs such that each service is mapped to one packet-ID, thereby enabling the packets including the content of a service to be identified via the packet-ID identifying that service, encrypted packet-IDs such that each packet includes its encrypted packet-ID in its header, and a packet filter to derive the packet-ID of that service from the mapping table(s), calculate the encrypted packet-ID from the derived packet-ID, and filter, from the media stream, the packets with the header including the calculated encrypted packet-ID yielding the packets including the part of the content of that service. Related apparatus and methods are also described.

摘要:
A system and a method for providing variable security mechanisms for securing digital content, in which a single security mechanism is not used for all content. Instead, at least one characteristic or feature of the security mechanism is varied between units, instances or categories of content. Therefore, even if unauthorized access is gained to a single unit of content, the overall integrity and security of the system for content distribution is not compromised. Preferably, security is provided though a general mechanism, which is then varied in order to provide variable, dissimilar security schemes for different types of content. By “type of content”, it is meant any of a single unit of content, a single instance of content or a single category of content. For example, for a category of content, the content may be characterized according to the identity of the content itself, such as the title of a movie for example, and/or according to the owner of a particular copy of the content. Thus, different security schemes may optionally and preferably be generated from a particular root structure. Related apparatus and methods are also provided.
