Anti-Piracy Services
Threat assessment
NAGRA's Threat Assessment service is the cornerstone of our Anti-Piracy program. It identifies the most impactful areas of piracy, to help support the anti-piracy business case and define where our client's anti-piracy resources should be targeted.
Live streaming piracy
We disrupt the illicit distribution of content and return viewers to the legitimate value chain by using the right balance between technology, investigations and legal support services. NAGRA covers the entire spectrum of commercial piracy, from web streaming to paid IPTV services, Kodi add-ons and apps.
Key sharing piracy
NAGRA protects the value of broadcast systems deployments through advanced Control Word-sharing programs that include piracy monitoring, detection and countermeasure actions that translate into revenue security and peace of mind for service providers.
Linear distribution watermarking for premium TV broadcasters and sports rights owners
NexGuard NetworkID can be seamlessly deployed into existing distribution workflows for linear channels to quickly identify the source of piracy–whether it’s an affiliate’s distribution channels (DTH/satellite, cable, IPTV, OTT) or a licensee’s TV channels or territory.
Bundled with NAGRA Anti-Piracy Services, NexGuard NetworkID delivers key piracy insights allowing anti-piracy teams to take targeted actions, measure the effectiveness of their initiatives and define the right strategy for content protection and licensing.

IP blocking
Our award-winning IP blocking solution is a breakthrough approach that acts both on visible piracy, what consumers find when they search or surf, and commercial piracy, services that deliver actual pirate streams for live events like sports. The NAGRA IP Blocking solution is an extra weapon in the fight against illegal content streaming, helping to reduce exposure and access to pirate services. Read more about it in our recent press release.
Forensic Watermarking
Forensic watermarking is the imperceptible embedding of information directly within video or audio content that identifies the source or intended recipient of the content. Forensic watermarks make each genuine copy of the content unique and can be extracted from pirated content to trace leaks back to the source and take anti-piracy action. NexGuard forensic watermarking can protect content owners’ and pay-TV operators’ investment in content, helping to deter and combat piracy.
