CANAL+ Group and
Nagravision Expand Partnership in Securing
Content Protection and Revenues
June 23, 2008
Nagravision, and CANAL+ Group, are further
expanding their partnership in securing content
protection and revenues for pay TV services.
CANAL+ Group is adopting the newest version of
Nagravision's conditional access system (CAS)
and is in the process of replacing all smart
cards for more than 3 million subscribers. With
this new system, CANAL+ Group demonstrates one
more time to its partners its strong commitment
to protect the contents, the channels and the
quality programs, which often are exclusive,
that the Group wants to continue offering to its
clients.
"We are proactively securing our system by
upgrading to Nagravision's latest security
solution," said Jo Guegan, Deputy Chief
Technical and Information Officer, CANAL+ Group.
"Even though the current security level fully
satisfies us, we want to implement all updates
and new releases our partner is proposing to us.
We look forward to continue working with a
company such as Nagravision that offers optimal
protection for our contents, representing a
guarantee of reliability towards the rights
owners who trust us, and which allows us to
continue offering the best programs to our
subscribers."
"Security is a moving target and we have
invested massively to be in a pole position to
better protect the content and revenues of our
pay TV clients such as CANAL+. This includes
smart cards, interactive applications as well as
information and subscriber management modules,"
said Pierre Roy, EVP of the Kudelski Group and
COO Nagravision. “The current conditional access
system at CANAL+, which was installed six years
ago, is still intact. Deploying these new
releases will however proactively reinforce the
system security going forward.”
