A method and system for securing digital content for transmission to an end user device. In a preferred embodiment, the invention provides for: a control center for controlling access to the digital content by the end user device; transmitting scrambled digital content to the end user device, such that the end user device cannot play back the said scrambled digital content; contacting the control center to request a PECM (personal ECM), the PECM being specific to the end user device; transmitting the PECM to the end user device by the control center; and unscrambling the scrambled digital content by the end user device according to the PECM.
摘要:
A system and a method for secure distribution of digital media content through a packet-based network such as the Internet. The security of the present invention does not require one-to-one key exchange, but rather enables keys, and/or information required in order to build the key, to be broadcast through the packet-based network. The digital media content is then also preferably broadcast, but cannot be accessed without the proper key. However, preferably only authorized end-user devices are able to access the digital media content, by receiving and/or being able to access the proper key. Thus, the present invention is useful for other types of networks in which digital media content is more easily broadcast rather than unicast, in addition to packet-based networks.

A system and method for providing content to users including a multicast sub-system providing content to multiple users and a unicast sub-system providing content to individual users. The multicast sub-system being operative to push to each of a plurality of user communities, content relating to the community and the unicast sub-system being operative to provide on demand to a user, content which has not been previously pushed to the user.

This invention discloses a method for displaying advertisements transmitted to a user unit, the method includes receiving, at the user unit, at least one advertisement tagged with a delay tag indicating whether display of the at least one advertisement can be delayed and only if the delay tag allows delaying display of the at least one advertisement, storing the at least one advertisement at the user unit, retrieving the at least one advertisement and displaying the at least one advertisement. A billing system for reporting a commercial broadcast to a multiplicity of users is also disclosed.

A method and system for fingerprinting a content item is described, the content item including a set of content item elements E, providing information uniquely associated with a single user including a string of bits S0, parsing S0 into a plurality of substrings which are functions of S0, providing a matrix of content item replacement elements, each row of which includes, for each member of E, an array of content item replacement elements for Ei, uniquely associating each substring of S0 so that for every substring there exists a corresponding element of E, for every substring, replacing at least one instance of the corresponding element E in the content item with one substitute matrix element for the corresponding substring, and outputting a replacement content item including the result of the replacing, the substitute matrix elements being chosen according to at least one similarity criterion.

摘要:
A secondary content distribution system and method is described, the system and method including a receiver for receiving a plurality of differing versions of secondary content from an provider, each one of the differing versions of the secondary content being associated with at least one of a reading mode, and a connection mode, a processor operative to determine a reading mode of a user of a client device, a selector for selecting one of the differing versions of the secondary content for display on the client device display, the selection being a function, at least in part, of matching the determined reading mode with the reading mode associated with the one of the differing versions of the secondary content and the connection mode of the client device, and a display for displaying the selected one of the differing versions of the secondary content on the client device display. Related methods, systems, and apparatus are also described.

A method and system for fingerprinting a content item is described, the and system method include providing the content item, the content item including a set of content item elements, the set of content item elements denoted E, such that E={E1, E2, Ei, Em}, providing information uniquely associated with a single user, the information including a string of bits, hereinafter denoted S0, parsing S0 into a plurality of subsequences of strings of bits, hereinafter denoted S1,, Sn, the parsing being performed such that S0 equals a function of S1,, Sn, providing a matrix of content item replacement elements, the matrix denoted R, each row of matrix R including, for at least each one of n members of set E, an array of content item replacement elements for Ei denoted Ri, such that Ri={Ri1, Rij}, uniquely associating each one of S1, Sn with one matrix element of matrix R, so that for every one of S1,, Sn there exists a corresponding element of E, for every one of S1,, Sn replacing at least one instance of the corresponding element E in the content item with the associated one matrix element of matrix R for the corresponding one of S1,, Sn, and outputting a replacement content item including the result of the replacing, wherein the members of Ri for each Ei are chosen according to at least one similarity criterion. Related hardware, systems and methods are also described.
