Distribution Watermarking

Distribution watermarking enables you to:

• Determine the platforms or third-parties being used as sources of piracy
• Work with your third-parties to strengthen the distribution chain and address security vulnerabilities
• Protect live, pay-per-view, linear and on-demand assets
• Increase the reach of your content, safely and securely

Cutting edge technology

Using proprietary technology, Distribution Watermarking adds a virtually imperceptible watermark to the content you distribute. Analysis of distribution watermarks supports the improved targeting of enhanced security in the markets where piracy is prevalent.  

Multi-layering gives exceptional identification

FMTS Distribution Watermarking can be used in parallel with Subscriber watermarking to give unrivalled insights into the piracy landscape. Multiple watermarks can be embedded into the same content and separately extracted – so you can discover not only which platform is being used as the source of piracy, but also the specific subscription that is being re-streamed. 

Robust against real-world attacks

Pirates are smart, innovative and often well-funded. They know the content they are stealing is protected, and will try to circumvent it using cropping, transformation, collusion and a host of other techniques. FMTS Distribution Watermarking stands up to whatever pirates throw at it, maintaining watermark integrity regardless of attempts to bypass or break it.
