摘要:
A method for service delivery to a client, in which the client selects a service, and establishes a connection with a system server to which it sends an identity associated with the client and an identifier of the service. The system server verifies that the client is authorised to access to the service and that the client is non-emulated. If this is verified, the service is provided to the client. In a preferred embodiment, the service is scrambled content and the system server provides a descrambling key to the client, and instructs a content server to provide the scrambled content to the client. Also claimed are a device, a system, and a system server.

The invention relates to a device for preventing illegal exportation of a content protected by a global copy protection system to a local copy protection system. According to the invention, each content liable to be exported contains a unique identifier and the device comprises a table for storing unique identifiers of all contents that have already been exported through said device. The invention also relates to a method for recording a content received by such a device. This method comprises the steps consisting, if the copy is to be made for a local copy protection system, in checking whether the unique identifier of said content is contained in the table of said device; and should said checking be positive, in preventing the recording; andshould said checking be negative, in recording the content and storing said unique identifier in said table.

The invention relates to a local digital network comprising: at least one source device intended to broadcast data over the network; and at least one receiver device intended to receive said data. The source device uses a network active encryption key to encrypt data liable to be broadcast in the network and the receiver device contains: a network active decryption key for decrypting data encrypted using said active encryption key and at least one decryption key of the network for decrypting data encrypted with the aid of an encryption key used previously in the network. The invention also relates to the installing of new devices in such a network as well as the sending of data from a source device to a receiver device.

The device of the invention for a pay-television system comprises an emitter and several receivers using "smart cards". In addition to the unscrambling control signals, the emitter sends encrypted authentication messages to which a correct response can be given only by the receivers where valid cards are used.

The method of the invention consists, during the transmission of composite video signals, in the inclusion therein of series of access messages (ECM1, ECM2) and, during the unscrambling, carried out using a chip card reader whose chip card comprises encoded digital data, in using an interactive method of identification of a digital signature.
摘要:
Reader for smart cards comprising a supply for the circuits of the card, a means of controlling information exchanges between the card and the reader and an input for digital signals from a pay-television system. The means of control comprises a first microcontroller which receives the digital signals and which controls a second microcontroller which itself controls the exchange of information with the card and delivers power supply control signals as a function of the information received from the card. The outputs from the first microcontroller are at a fixed potential during the resets and the outputs from the second microcontroller are at a floating potential during the resets. A port enables the first microcontroller to control the power supply during the resets.
摘要:
A receiver receives digital content scrambled using a control word and a user code for the scrambled content. A user inputs the user code that is forwarded to a code extractor that generates the control word and a user identifier from it. The control word is sent to a descrambler, a watermark information generator and a visible watermark insertion unit. The descrambler descrambles the scrambled content using the control word, an invisible watermark insertion unit inserts invisible watermark information obtained from the watermark information generator into the descrambled content and the visible watermark insertion unit inserts the user identifier as a visible watermark. Also provided are a corresponding method for processing digital content and a method and a device for generating the user code.
摘要:
A method of processing digital content according to a workflow. The digital content is received and information for the workflow is checked to decide if a processing device is authorized to process the content, the workflow imposing that the digital content be processed in a process chain comprising at least two nodes, wherein the processing device is authorized to process the content if it corresponds to the node that according to the process chain is the next node to process the digital content. If the processing device is authorized to process the content, the digital content is processed and the information for the workflow is updated. Also provided is a system.
