What is DRM?

DRM, or Digital Rights Management, is a set of technologies designed to protect copyright.
These systems restrict unauthorized access to video content.

DRM services are primarily needed by content rights holders. For example, film studios may prohibit online cinemas or TV channel websites from showing their movies if DRM protection is not used.

The technology is built into browsers or device firmware where the video is played. Each device family has its own DRM vendor. For instance, Apple uses its own DRM soluyion — FairPlay. To display video content via FairPlay, it is necessary to obtain keys and a certificate from Apple for video encryption.
For Google products, their Widevine Modular DRM solution is used.

We have combined support for multiple DRM vendors into a single product — Multi-DRM.

DRM for LIVE

Our DRM LIVE Packager tool, available for Linux and FreeBSD, performs real-time conversion of audio and video streams from RTMP, RTSP, or UDP formats to HLS/DASH. It offers a choice of DRM backends tailored to your needs: Widevine, Playready, FairPlay, WisePlay. Additionally, it supports processing SCTE-35 markers in the stream (these markers are generated by broadcast equipment and indicate ad insertion points).

DRM for VOD

For Video on Demand (VOD) content, we provide the DRM VOD Packager. It converts videos from MP4 to HLS/DASH formats and protects them using the aforementioned DRM backends.

Integration Details

Working with FairPlay

Apple Fairplay

FairPlay Streaming (FPS) is a DRM technology designed to manage video access on iPhone, iPod, iPad, Apple TV, iTunes, iTunes Store, and App Store.

To enable Apple FairPlay protection, you need to obtain keys from Apple (navigate to the «Request Deployment Package» section). This requires company registration in Apple’s database (using your DUNS number), payment of an annual fee of approximately $100, and confirmation of rights to content.

Working with Flussonic

Our service can be used with the Flussonic server. For MPEG-DASH format, Widevine and PlayReady are used, while HLS is protected by FairPlay. WisePlay supports both MPEG-DASH and HLS formats.

Integration is implemented via the Secure Packager and Encoder Key Exchange (SPEKE) protocol. Keys are exchanged between our key server and Flussonic over an encrypted HTTPS channel.

Working with AWS Elemental Live

AWS Elemental Live

We provide integration with the AWS Elemental platform. For MPEG-DASH format, Widevine and PlayReady are used, while HLS is protected by FairPlay.

Integration is implemented via the Secure Packager and Encoder Key Exchange (SPEKE) protocol, enabling secure key exchange for all AWS Elemental products: Live, Delta, MediaConvert, MediaLive, and MediaPackage.

In your DRM test request, please specify: your website, email, and which DRM services you need (Live protection, VOD protection, or a license server only). Your website is required for video playback testing, and it must have a valid SSL certificate. After testing, for full integration, you will need to obtain your own FairPlay keys and sign an agreement with Widevine.
We provide ready-to-use HLS and MPEG-DASH playlists via a CDN address. You can embed them into your own player or use our player free of charge.
The default trial period lasts 7 calendar days. If your project requires more complex integration and testing, the period can be extended.
It depends on who handles the encryption. If you encrypt the content on your side, there is no need to upload the videos to us. If we handle the encryption, the videos must be uploaded to our servers (via the control panel or API).
For DRM services, we have a dedicated website: drmnow.ru/docs/.
