Irdeto Access

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Irdeto provides solutions for digital content protection in digital TV, IPTV and mobile environments. The company's headquarters are located near Amsterdam. Irdeto provides both smart card and software-based conditional access systems for pay TV, supporting cable, satellite, terrestrial, MMDS and IPTV operators. In addition, the company offers chip- and software-based solutions for mobile media and TV based on the following standards: DMB-S, DMB-T, DVB-H, OMA 1, OMA 2.

Irdeto is a subsidiary of media group Naspers, which also includes a group of pay TV sister companies in Africa, Europe and Asia. As a primary supplier to these companies since the early days of digital TV, Irdeto plays a vital role within this group. Nevertheless, more than 75% of Irdeto's revenue comes from companies outside the group since the 1990's.

[edit] History

The company was founded in 1968 by Pieter den Toonder, a radio engineer, in Dordrecht, The Netherlands. The company name is a contraction of Ir.—the Dutch abbreviation for a university-educated engineer— and the founder's surname.

In 2006, Irdeto acquired the assets, customers and employees of competitor Philips CryptoTec (makers of the Cryptoworks product line). CryptoTec had over 100 customers and more than 50 employees. The purchase price was not disclosed.
