Friend MTS is a leading global provider of platform, channel and content protection services.
From fingerprinting and watermarking to advanced subscriber identification, we offer a full suite of managed services to help Pay-TV operators, rights holders and broadcasters control where their video content flows. We provide protection for live and non-live content across broadcast and OTT.
Platform protection
Our platform protection services quickly, accurately and effectively trace live streaming leaks back to the source so you can identify the infringing subscriber and terminate their connection.
Our channel protection services are specifically designed to protect broadcasters and channel owners against the unauthorised retransmission of entire channel feeds.
Our content protection services enable studios, sports leagues and other content owners to secure their live and VOD content against illegal retransmission.
