AKYI Vice President of Technology
Craig Erickson stated, “We have pioneered solutions and cutting edge
technology for tomorrow‟s demands. The system that we have developed
is unique in the IPTV industry and exists nowhere else. AKYI‟s Set
Top Box (STB) combined with our secure, patent pending USB
conditional access key will take IPTV delivery to the next security
level and also enable STB type operations on your PC.” According to
Erickson, “This system combination does not rely solely upon MAC &
IP addressing, which can be spoofed (faked). Instead, it uses
1024bit RSA intercommunication and unique key ID‟s for user
verification, supplanting the conventional reliance on MAC+IP
address for user ID. It also enables forensic watermarking to be
embedded in each user stream, using specific AKYI key ID‟s for added
content security. Our conditional access keys provide a virtual
„lockbox,‟ over and above any current content distribution system in
use today.
According to Erickson, AKYI‟s low cost, hardened security, USB
AccessKey provides all the security advantages of the STB, including
watermarking, but on a PC. When inserting the USB AccessKey into a
PC, it auto-installs all of the software necessary to enable access
to secured content services, assuming a valid account. “Because of
this, we believe our security solution will prove attractive to
content distributors looking to venture into Open Internet
Broadcasting (OIB) with first run or early release content.” said
Erickson. “Since user ID cannot be faked, and ultimate control over
the security key is with the content provider, the last hole in the
security dyke has been effectively plugged.”
Erickson concluded by saying, “In addition to the retail sales
potential of AKYI‟s USB key, we believe the ultimate application of
this technology is through its integration into an array of current
and upcoming consumer electronics products capable of Internet
access. The potential to build worldwide content subscriber bases is
there, assuming cooperative industry alliances. With that goal in
mind, we are currently pursuing collaborative discussion with a
number of consumer electronics manufacturers and content
distributors.”
