Forensic Watermarking for Pre-Release Content

The media and entertainment industry has changed significantly. There has been an obvious and significant increase in demand for streaming media, which has caused content owners to take a fresh look at new modes of media distribution. The protection of those valuable assets is key to long-term success. 

The video production process is adapting to a new environment with more people working from home and the need for remote access. Protecting content from leaks, theft, or unauthorized distribution is a concern. With increased accessibility comes increased security risks, which is why more studios and other video providers require increased measures like video watermarking.

How a Forensic Watermarking Solution Can Help

Forensic watermarking technologies are used by content owners, broadcasters, post-production houses, and content aggregators to deter and combat leaks throughout their content pre-release lifecycle. To prevent any leak, studios and content owners can apply forensic watermarking that allows them to trace any leak back to the specific department or third party that was responsible for leaking the content.

You can use forensic watermarking for:

• Editing and collaborating workflows
• Post-production and distribution workflows
• Standalone solutions for video files in post-production
• B2B streaming

Protect pre-release assets like dailies, proxy deliveries of full features and TV series, and trailers. Forensic watermarking enables businesses to control piracy across platforms by auditing content and tracking down stolen content and distribution channels.
