It includes a secure stream player tool to ensure full operational integrity following upgrades of CA and STB software for IP and cable (and hybrid cable/IP) boxes, verifying correct operation of DVB CSA and AES descrambling. We are delighted to have formed this partnership. It enables ZyXEL to provide a robustly secure set-top box with the power and flexibility to ensure that operators can launch IPTV services that scale efficiently in terms of customer-base, complexity and breadth of service offering, said Jean-Paul Heron, Client Integrations Manager, Latens. The integration was made far simpler through the utilization of our new toolkit, Latens STIK. The advantages of STIK do not end at integration; STIK also makes it much simpler for Latens and ZyXEL to control and upgrade security and other STB functionality.
