Problems solved by technology

At present, the concept of digital rights management (DRM) has been proposed. Its main task is to ensure that the content of digital programs is not illegally copied through necessary technical means, and to protect the interests of IPTV program providers and operators. The program is encrypted and transmitted, and the set-top box on the user side decrypts and restores it to audio and video signals for viewing, so that illegal users cannot steal and copy digital programs from the network
However, a specific solution for implementing DRM in IPTV has not been provided so far, making it difficult to realize the safe transmission of IPTV digital programs
