Rock-Solid Security: AltiProtect
The Alticast AltiProtect family of products provides certified content protection in CAS/DRM and DTCP-IP variations. AltiProtect also provides an innovative downloadable and exchangeable (D & E) framework that enables the unique ability to remotely install content protection solutions directly into the STB.

for upgrading existing systems in the field without any need to modify hardware.
In some markets the CableCARD has been a primary means of security. As this technology is phased out, the D & E framework will provide flexibility for security solutions going forward.
