Certicom KeyInject™ can be used to transport and inject keys and certificates in conditional access and digital rights management (DRM) schemes such as HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), CPRM (Content Protection for Recordable Media), and other emerging consumer electronics standards. In these situations, unique keying material is embedded in a device to control access to streaming media and the usage of downloaded electronic files.
Certicom KeyInject™ meets the stringent requirements of device producers that need to inject keying data during the vulnerable manufacturing process. KeyInject offers hardware-based protection of internal or third-party keys that is crucial to the security of the system. By controlling and reporting the volume of keyed devices, producers can eliminate the manufacture of gray market devices.
Certicom KeyInject™ automates the process to key a device before it gets to the user which makes the system more secure while keeping costs lower in the manufacturing process. These flexible remote administration capabilities ensure that the producer can view the entire system with minimal effort which also leads to decreased costs.
The ability to customize the interface and integrate it with the manufacturing line system enables Certicom KeyInject™ to address multiple deployment options. This flexibility also enables enhanced capabilities.
