Our long-term relationship with NAGRA means we’re able to bring this content to our end-users safe in the knowledge that it is secured by best-of-breed NAGRA cardless technology.”

The new cardless solution, designed to secure premium content investments, will now supplement existing NAGRA smartcard solutions deployed at tivùsat.

“Helping our customers to provide the widest possible content choice to their viewers is core to our ambition.” said Nancy Goldberg, Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing and Sales Officer at NAGRA. “We are proud to extend our security solution across the tivùsat platform to additionally protect DAZN premium sports content. The adoption of this disribution approach by an OTT operator, whose content will be distributed via satellite, further demonstrates the flexibility of NAGRA solutions to support the needs of today’s media and entertainment market.”
