Online Piracy Detection

Protect your live broadcasts in real time

Irdeto’s Live Streaming Service combats the spread of infringing streams during a live event or broadcast. Real-time enforcement of unauthorized retransmissions protects brand reputation and the investment in high-value content for rights holders, content owners and platform operators.

Irdeto deploys automated scanning technology together with human piracy expert oversight to rapidly scan and detect infringing content on live streaming sites, Kodi applications, social media, and blogs (e.g. reddit). As part of live event broadcast protection Irdeto offers integration with YouTube Content ID and Facebook Rights Manager fingerprint-based content matching for immediate takedowns of infringing streams.

Our live streaming coverage leverages several takedown tools on popular social media sites, such as Periscope, Twitch, Instagram, Twitter, and reddit, to ensure all traces of live event piracy are removed.

Ensure comprehensive global protection of your valuable digital assets

Irdeto’s Web Video Services utilize automation and scalable technology, together with human piracy expert oversight to rapidly detect and verify infringing content across streaming video on demand (VOD), direct download (DDL), social media, Kodi applications, and search engines. This comprehensive approach ensures fast, cost-effective protection, while maintaining high-quality and effective results.

To achieve the most impactful results, Irdeto prioritizes site coverage based on the most popular, highly trafficked pirate websites globally, as well as problematic sites within geographic regions known for high levels of piracy. Customers can also refer sites of specific strategic value for coverage.

Irdeto offers integration with YouTube Content ID and Facebook Rights Manager for rapid takedown or tracking of infringing video on demand content. Our web coverage leverages several takedown tools on popular social media sites, such as Periscope, Twitch, Instagram, Twitter, and reddit, to ensure all traces of piracy are removed from these popular viewing platforms.

Clean search engine results and drive consumers to legitimate sources of content

Irdeto’s Search Engine Link Removal (SELR) Service removes infringing links across Google, Bing, and Yandex search engines. SELR Service uses keyword searches in multiple languages, mimicking end-user behavior and search techniques. This ensures that those casual users seeking free online sources will find it more difficult and help drive them to seeking authorized platforms.

As live events are approaching, Irdeto leverages the Google Service to de-list links that are advertising pirated streams to upcoming events, thus making it more difficult for users to find options for illegal consumption.

Make strategic business decisions while safeguarding your valuable revenue

Irdeto’s Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Enforcement Service monitors and enforces the propagation of infringing content on BitTorrent, providing a comprehensive overview of the distribution and consumption of illicit content throughout the entire piracy ecosystem.

Irdeto’s enhanced DHT detection platform ensures we find content almost immediately upon first leak to the P2P network. For enforcement services, once infringing content has been identified and verified per MPAA file verification standards, notices are sent to ISPs to ensure rapid, highly effective protection of valuable assets by removing illicit content.

Prevent & mitigate unexpected
copyright leaks
