RMC BFM has deployed Castlabs’ DRMtoday multi-DRM service, with integration support from Red Bee Media, to secure its RMC+ streaming platform. The implementation provides multi-key delivery and live key rotation for both live and VOD content.
The adoption of multi-key delivery and live key rotation signals a shift toward more granular security for European broadcasters managing high-concurrency live events. By separating audio and video encryption, RMC BFM gains finer control over content rights while mitigating the risk of unauthorized stream ripping during live broadcasts. This move reflects a broader industry trend where media groups like CMA Media are prioritizing cloud-native security layers to maintain parity across fragmented device ecosystems. As the French streaming market becomes more competitive, watch for whether RMC BFM expands these advanced encryption features to its regional BFM Locales channels to protect localized advertising and content rights.
RMC BFM has successfully integrated Castlabs’ DRMtoday multi-DRM service into its RMC+ streaming platform, with support from Red Bee Media. This implementation introduces advanced security features like multi-key delivery and live key rotation, which help protect high-value news and media content from unauthorized access across all consumer devices.
RMC BFM added multi-key delivery, which allows for separate encryption of audio and video tracks, and live key rotation, which refreshes encryption keys during active playback.
Red Bee Media managed the integration of the cloud-based DRMtoday licensing service into RMC BFM’s existing streaming workflows.
The service supports major industry DRM standards, including Google Widevine, Apple FairPlay, and Microsoft PlayReady.
Multi-key delivery allows the broadcaster to gain finer control over content rights and mitigate the risk of unauthorized stream ripping during high-concurrency live broadcasts.
