Platform to support VIDITYTM requirements for
4K UHD and High Dynamic Range programming
Rambus Inc. (NASDAQ:RMBS) today announced that its
Cryptography Research division has launched the CryptoMedia
security platform. This platform will protect 4K UHD and High
Dynamic Range (HDR) programming, while enabling consumers to easily
store, copy and share premium digital content across multiple
devices. The CryptoMedia solution will include a secure core, a
software player and trusted key provisioning services to meet the
growing demand for high-quality digital movie watching
experiences.
“Through its role as a trusted partner and security advisor to
the Secure Content Storage Association (SCSA), Rambus Cryptography
Research has been a key supporter of the development of the
VIDITYTM technology that empowers devices to deliver the highest
quality digital experience,” said David Huerta, general manager of
the SCSA. “We are pleased to see that the CryptoMedia platform will
enable secure, convenient access to the highest quality digital
content, including 4K HDR, for everyone to experience as the VIDITY
ecosystem continues to grow with compliant solutions.”
The CryptoMedia security platform will include:
- A Key Derivation Core that provides a
complete and secure hardware IP solution for handling symmetric
keys in VIDITY-enabled player devices;
- A Player Agent for secure acquisition
and playback of VIDITY content; and
- A Key Issuance Center (KIC) that
provides keys to player and storage device manufacturers, as well
as content providers in the VIDITY ecosystem.
“As the market for 4K UHD content matures, it is critical to
provide consumers with the best digital programming ownership
experience, while ensuring that the content remains safe and
secure,” said Dr. Martin Scott, senior vice president and general
manager for the Rambus Cryptography Research division. “Our
CryptoMedia platform will enable VIDITY device makers and content
providers to give consumers secure and easy access to the
next-generation of premium content they desire.”
The CryptoMedia platform is available to all members of the SCSA
which develop technologies for consumers to easily and securely
purchase, transfer and view content across multiple electronic
devices. The SCSA is a consortium of companies in the entertainment
industry and digital storage space that was founded by Twentieth
