The FMTS team pioneered Dynamic Server Blocking back in 2017 to protect live sports for one of the world’s most popular content owners. Since then, this innovative and highly effective approach to reducing piracy consumption and driving viewers to legitimate sources of content has gone from strength to strength. Many other content owners and platform operators have now used this impactful solution to drive their revenues.
Dynamic Server Blocking utilises court orders or regulation to require ISPs to prevent viewers from accessing illegal content, blocking access to tens of thousands of pirate servers during each week of operation.
Different to the rest
Dynamic Server Blocking is a network-level enforcement mechanism focusing on video delivery servers and other key infrastructure used in the delivery of illegal content. During live events, illicit servers are identified and ISPs block consumers' access to them, in real time. The solution is truly dynamic with additional infrastructure being identified and blocked as the live events progress. This method drastically reduces the availability of illegal streams in the specified geography, driving viewers to legitimate sources of consumption.
Not just for live events
Until recently, Dynamic Server Blocking orders have focused on live events. However, there are often multiple key periods throughout a day or week when the highest levels of protection are critical for broadcasters and platform operators. Disrupting piracy consumption according to a schedule of key events on a linear channel (or bouquet of channels), whether live events or premium entertainment content, deprives audiences of access to this illicit content, and directs them to legal alternatives.
