Partnership combines Kaltura's Cloud TV platform with Verimatrix's content protection and anti-piracy solutions, with full migration of customers to be carried out in the coming months.

NEW YORK & SAN DIEGO & AIX-EN-PROVENCE, France--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Regulatory News:

Kaltura (Nasdaq: KLTR), the Agentic Digital Experience company, and Verimatrix (Euronext Paris: VMX), a leading provider of security solutions for a safer connected world, today announced a strategic partnership designed to provide enhanced protection for OTT and Cloud TV services.

The partnership brings together Kaltura's scalable Cloud TV platform and Verimatrix's Digital Rights Management (DRM) and security capabilities. The joint solution, as part of Kaltura’s Marketplace, helps Telco’s, broadcasters, and media companies securely deliver premium live and on-demand content across a wide range of devices and operating systems.

Demand for advanced content protection has grown, and Kaltura's Cloud TV footprint has expanded across Telco’s, operators, broadcasters, and media companies. Partnering with Verimatrix, a recognized leader in content protection, provides customers with both the proven security at scale and the video experience layer they need.

Content protection sits at the center of every viable streaming business. Rights holders will not license premium and live sports content without proven anti-piracy controls, and operators lose real revenue to password sharing and stream ripping. Through this collaboration, customers benefit from:

• Multi-DRM protection for premium video content
• Secure content delivery across connected TVs, set-top boxes, mobile devices, and web applications
• Stronger defense against piracy, credential sharing, and unauthorized access
• Security that scales for both established services and fast-growing OTT platforms
• A simplified integration and deployment approach
• Ongoing support from Kaltura and Verimatrix's technology and delivery teams

"Security and content protection are fundamental components of every successful streaming service," said Oren Ben Kohav, SVP Sales and Delivery Media & Telecom at Kaltura. "As demand for premium streaming grows, our customers need security that scales with them. Our partnership with Verimatrix lets us offer a proven, flexible, and scalable security solution as an integrated part of their Cloud TV experience, so operators can protect their premium content while continuing to innovate and deliver engaging viewing experiences."

"Quality content deserves security that keeps pace with it, and operators can't afford to compromise on that as streaming scales," said Carlo Stramaglia, Head of Anti-Piracy Business at Verimatrix. "Partnering with Kaltura means bringing proven content protection and anti-piracy technology directly into the Cloud TV workflows. Together, we can add value for existing and new customers by helping them safeguard their content and subscriber revenue as they grow."

While security is what protects the revenue, Kaltura's Agentic Avatars are creating new avenues to grow it, by turning the viewing experience into a point of engagement and conversion. Operational in more than 30 languages, Kaltura’s real-time conversational AI video agents understand viewer intent and respond with dynamically generated media, from guiding fans to the right match or highlight, to surfacing content suited to the viewer.

Kaltura will be showcasing the Agentic Avatars as part of its Cloud TV platform, the Verimatrix-integrated security solution, and its agentic revenue engine for entertainment and monetization at IBC 2026, 11–14 September, at booth 5.A68. Visitors can also meet the Verimatrix team at booth 1.BS20 to learn more about the integrated content security technologies powering the solution.

Key Terms

ott technical

OTT stands for “over-the-top” and describes video, audio or other media services delivered directly to users over the internet, bypassing traditional cable or broadcast systems. Investors watch OTT metrics—subscriber counts, viewing time, and churn—because they drive recurring revenue, advertising potential and customer loyalty much like a consumer choosing to subscribe to a gym instead of buying one-off classes. Changes in OTT performance can signal growth opportunities or rising costs for content and marketing, affecting company value.

digital rights management technical

Technologies and legal tools used to control how digital content and software are accessed, copied, shared, or used. Think of it as a set of digital locks and keys that content owners use to enforce licensing rules, restrict copying, or enable pay-per-use; it matters to investors because DRM affects a company’s ability to monetize digital products, the cost and complexity of delivering services, licensing income, and potential legal or customer-acceptance risks.

multi-drm technical

Multi-DRM is a content-delivery approach that supports several digital rights management systems at once so protected audio, video, or other digital files can be played on a wide range of devices and apps. Like offering the same locked product with different keys so customers with different gadgets can open it, it matters to investors because it affects a content provider’s ability to reach more paying users, comply with platform rules, and manage licensing and technology costs.

stream ripping technical

Taking audio or video that is meant to be streamed and creating a permanent local copy by bypassing a service’s normal controls. It is like recording a live radio show and keeping a personal copy, except many stream‑ripping methods avoid paywalls, digital restrictions, or advertising. Investors track stream ripping because it can reduce paid usage and advertising revenue, create legal and licensing risks for platforms and rights holders, and distort user metrics that underlie business value.
