Video and streaming businesses turn to Digital Rights Management (DRM) to secure their content, but simply adding DRM is not enough. The effectiveness of DRM depends on how it is implemented and how well it is integrated into a broader security strategy. Poor implementation can lead to vulnerabilities that pirates exploit, negating DRM’s intended purpose.

Our new article DRM Security Best Practices highlights best practices to maximize DRM security and avoid common pitfalls.

Recently, we've released a number of additional features regarding user authentication in Management System:

Redesigned sign in experience​

Sign-in experience is now more aligned with the industry best practices. Users can directly sign in with their email and password, or select one of the external IDPs (Identify Providers) using the bottons below. Which IDPs can be used on a given environment is configurable (see below).

We’re excited to announce that Axinom Portal now offers enhanced self-management features designed specifically for organizations with multiple users. Here’s what you can do:

• Manage Environments: Configure, add, start, and stop services with ease. Learn more.
• User Access Management: Directly add or remove users from your tenant, assign roles, and skip the need for support requests. See details.
• Set Up SSO: Enforce your organization’s preferred identity provider (IDP), such as Microsoft or Google, for secure single sign-on.
• Role-Based Access Control: Choose from four user roles—Business, Billing, Admin, and Technical—to fine-tune each user’s access to specific Portal features. Explore roles.

Since Google revoked CDMs for older browsers on October 31, 2024, we observe an elevated level of Widevine DRM license rejected errors. We recommend our customers to observe the client error messages, and if "revoked" errors are encountered, to update users' browsers. With the latest revocation, it requires a Chrome version 117+ to deliver a Widevine license successfully.
