摘要:
A system for protection against unauthorized modifications of digital content, in particular image content, in which a content processing system retrieves content, a fingerprint for the content and at least one modification limit expressing authorized modifications to the content. The content may then be modified, but before saving or exportation is allowed, a second fingerprint is calculated, and the difference between the fingerprints is compared with the at least one modification limit. If the difference is within the allowed bounds, then saving or exportation is allowed; if not, it is prevented. Also provided are a method and a content consumer device performing essentially the same steps before allowing rendering of the content.

摘要:
A method for secure installation of software applications. The user receives the software, partly encrypted, and an installation token for a number of licenses from the software provider, plugs the software and the installation token into a computer, and launches the installation application. A Secure Authenticated Channel is established between the installation application and the installation token and a unique identifier of the computer is sent thereon to the installation token. The installation token verifies that there are remaining licenses, decreases the remaining licenses, authorizes the installation and sends the decryption key and a certificate/key pair to the installation application that decrypts and installs the software, preferably linking the installation to the computer's identifier. A variant allows (virtually) unlimited installations of time limited programs that are transformed into time unlimited programs once the installation token has reported the number to the software provider and paid for the necessary licenses. Also provided is the installation token.

摘要:
A layered audiovisual packet data stream, such as one obtained by a JPEG2000 encoder, is received together with information (metadata) about the contribution of each packet to the reduction of image distortion. The distortion-to-rate ratio for each packet is calculated and the packets are ordered in descending ratio. The non-encrypted packet having the highest ratio is encrypted until the target distortion is obtained. Also provided is an apparatus. In a variant, the data in the packets are substituted by dummy data instead of encrypted.

The invention relates to pairing a slave device with a master device, for example decoders in a conditional access system. There is provided a security module that stores a device state that indicates whether a decoder shall be a master or a slave decoder. There is also provided a method in a conditional access system of providing a device with a device state stored on a security module. It is detected that the security module is in connection with the device and the device state is transferred from the security module to the device. There is further provided a method of pairing a slave device with a master device. The slave device asks the master device to identify itself, the master device returns an identification, and if the slave device has not yet been paired with a master device, it checks the identity of the master device and, if the identity is verified pairs with the master device. There is also provided a first, slave, device for pairing with a second, master, device. The first device comprises an interface for sending an identification command to and receiving an identification message from the master device, and a processor for checking the identity of the second device and pairing the first device with the second device.
摘要:
The present invention concerns a device and a process for signing digital streams, each of them comprising contents, related to audiovisual information, and a signaling. The device applies encrypting to selectively determined descriptors of the signaling, called authenticated descriptors, to obtain signature. The invention also concerns corresponding authentication device and process. Application to authentication of DVB/MPEG digital streams, notably for MHP.
摘要:
A device for presentation of a signal having an audio-visual content, comprising means for presenting said content, means for connecting to a transmission channel which is external with respect to said device for receiving a signal, and a module for transmission of a signal which is disposed in the same container together with the presentation means, comprising means for storing a first identification information, adapted to receive the signal from the connection means and to transmit said signal to the presentation means only when the first identification information corresponds to a second identification information contained in the signal. A system and method for presenting a signal comprising an audio-visual content are also disclosed.

The invention relates to a process for controlling digital rights of the “Play N times” type for a digital audio and/or video content (132), referred to as controlled content (132), the controlled content being consumed by a consumer on a consuming device (112) or on another device delegating the controlling of these rights to the consuming device. According to the invention, such a process is characterized in that charging of one additional usage is inhibited in at least one of the following cases where: the consumer momentarily consumes another content, on the same device (112) where the controlled content (132) is consumed, and then returns to the controlled content (132), the consumer effects a pause in the usage of the controlled content (132), the consumer performs a fast-forward of the controlled content (132), the consumer performs a rewind of the controlled content (132).
