Waoo takes TV Authentication and Analytics to the Cloud with Verimatrix

Leading Danish Triple Play Service Provider Selects Flexibility of the Cloud for Security and Analytics

AIX-EN-PROVENCE, France & SAN DIEGO — Verimatrix, (Euronext Paris: VMX), formerly known as Inside Secure, a global provider of innovative, customer-friendly cybersecurity solutions that protect video content, endpoint devices, software and applications, today announced that Waoo, Denmark’s leading provider of internet, TV, streaming and telephony via the fiber network, has selected the Verimatrix Video Content Authority System (VCAS™) for IPTV, Verimatrix Multi-DRM and Verimatrix Analytics – all as software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions. Lower capital investment and faster time-to-market through cloud-based services provide Waoo a competitive advantage in the Danish market.

“Unifying our security and analytics platforms with a single partner gives us better economies of scale along with streamlined management of the solutions – via the power of the cloud,” said Ole Ørndrup, CTO of Waoo. “We believe in the Verimatrix product roadmap to help future proof our networks and deliver the best experience for our subscribers.”

The cloud-based VCAS content and revenue security platform provides two-way protection for premium content on Waoo’s IPTV network, while Verimatrix Multi-DRM reduces complexity which allow the operator to retain full control of its service offerings and subscriber relationships. Cloud-native Verimatrix Analytics unifies data across Waoo’s IPTV and OTT networks and end devices to help optimize multi-network video service delivery and the subscriber viewing experience, which ultimately improves user engagement and increases revenue.

“We are pleased to extend our relationship with Waoo where we are helping the company take advantage of benefits of the SaaS model to streamline complexity, analytics and security,” said Asaf Ashkenazi, COO of Verimatrix. “With our flexible deployment options and strong partner ecosystem, Waoo is better able to offer a range of advanced services that meet their customers’ growing needs helping to maximize service revenue and ROI.”

The Verimatrix solutions are integrated with the Nordija fokusOn middleware solution and will be extended to set-top boxes and in-home WiFi equipment to maximize the business impact of the multi-network, multi-screen video intelligence platform.
