Pascal Casel, business-platform & diversifi cation director at RTL Luxembourg, said: “Staige has the best product among the competitors, which is why we decided to co-operate with the German company. The fi rst months of co-operation have confi rmed our decision, because we are very satisfi ed with the high quality system and the production of the games.”

watermarks into the pubcaster’s content available to consumers via the RAI OTT web and app service. Nagra’s Anti-Piracy Services platform is also leveraged, providing a crawling engine to monitor the web and pirate IPTV services, searching for illegal publications of original content. The crawled content is then inspected to detect watermarks and validate when it is illegally redistributed. The solution also provides valuable data insights of illicit activity that enables actionable business decisions. The result is a comprehensive solution that ensures coverage against illicit attacks on valuable content.
