Motorola's TV/DSL to Support Widevine Content Security

Motorola will integrated Widevine Technologies' Cypher content security technology into its Multi-Service Access Platform for video over xDSL applications. The companies said the integration of Widevine's Patented Virtual SmartCard and Application Level encryption with Motorola's telecom video delivery platform would benefit telecommunications service providers looking to expand content redistribution agreements with studios and broadcasters. http://www.widevine.comhttp://www.motorola.com/broadband

Motorola will also provide project integration and operational services through its newly-formed Telecom Access Solutions business unit. Financial terms were not disclosed.
