Worldwide, technology providers are investing their R&D spending to ensure that they can deliver robust security with cardless conditional access systems, with a number of large scale deployments underway. Operators are increasingly considering cardless security as one option that can provide the security level required in many deployment scenarios. They are now evaluating cardless systems on threat resiliency and total cost of the system throughout its forecast lifecycle, as well as secondary factors including impact on marketing and sales channels.
This report relates to Conditional Access Systems (CAS) within Pay TV Systems protected via a set-top box. ABI Research defines protection of content to other video consumption devices (notably, smartphones, tablets, and connected TV technologies including game consoles, smart set-top boxes or digital media adapters, connected TVs, and connected Blu-Ray Players) as Digital Rights Management (DRM). While we recognize some convergence of these solutions, ABI Research continues to distinguish and will research TV Everywhere focused DRM solutions in future reports.
