Verimatrix announced a multi-year agreement with Cablevisión S.A. in Argentina to secure its new Cablevisión Flow multiscreen video service and provide access to its line of Video Content Authority System (VCAS) revenue security solutions. Cablevisión plans to use a mix of VCAS solutions to secure a mixture of linear, on-demand and UltraHD content.
Cablevisión is upgrading its revenue security platform as part of a larger plan to develop an all-IP network. Flow is Cablevisión's new TV anytime, anywhere service delivered via its IPTV and over-the-top (OTT) networks. The Verimatrix deployment includes VCAS for Broadcast Hybrid and MultiRights OTT. The agreement also includes support from the Verimatrix Global Services team.
"The highly configurable VCAS architecture provides us with the agility we need to evolve our multi-network, multiscreen services so that they are responsive to customer demand and ahead of the competition," said Laura Lozes, Cablevisión's product manager. "Working with Verimatrix and its proven partner ecosystem has given us confidence to build the first true TV anytime and anywhere platform in the country."
Cablevisión operates in 12 provinces and 90 cities throughout Argentina. It currently has 3.5 million cable TV customers, nearly 2 million broadband customers and more than 41,000 business services customer companies.
