Regulatory news:
Verimatrix, (Euronext Paris: VMX) (Paris:VMX), the leader in powering the modern connected world with people-centered security, today announced that Ontario, Canada-based International Datacasting Corporation (IDC), a global provider of products, systems and services for the distribution of multimedia broadband content, selected Verimatrix VCAS video encryption technology to protect the airing of valuable sporting events for its broadcasting customers serving the LATAM market.
Verimatrix VCAS fortifies video content from external threats, is easily scalable, and its proven interoperability with subsystem providers (including billing, encoding, middleware and application vendors) make it the modern network security solution of choice for video solution providers such as IDC.

IDC’s selection of Verimatrix’s security for its broadcasters underscores the confidence it has in VCAS. Having previously collaborated with Verimatrix, IDC expects this latest deployment to serve as a potential springboard for additional similar deployments in the region and beyond.
