With the obligation to use the
CableCARD security scheme now a thing of the past, the question is: what will
replace it? This is the question examined in an article from Light Reading, “Who
will own cable’s Content Security?.”
Alticast CTO and President, John
Carlucci, was interviewed for this article, which gives insight into the issues
with replacing CableCARD with downloadable security for set-top boxes and where
the future lies. The FCC are in the process of creating an advisory board to look into alternative
security options and this article is well worth reading by anyone interested in
life after CableCARD.
