Based on the worlds leading forensic watermarking technology
NexGuard forensic watermarking adds a unique, invisible identifier to video content. The watermark remains with the content, even in the case of transcoding, resizing, downscaling, camcording or any other alteration.
Harrie Tholen, Managing Director at NexGuard, added: Its no secret there is a direct correlation between the freshness and quality of content on the one hand and piracy threats on the other. It is down to the entire industry to join forces and fight back. Forensic watermarking, which acts as a deterrent for would-be pirates, has a very important role to play in supporting high-value content deals. Through working with innovative companies such as Kaleidescape, who provide consumers with a premium home cinema experience, we are looking forward to protecting the new era of early release home entertainment.
