Ocean Blue develops CI+ standard software
Ocean Blue
Ocean Blue CI+
Ocean Blue Software has been working with the CI Plus LLP to contribute to the launch and testing of the CI+ standard.
It has also developed a CI+ software stack and CI+ browser to v1.2 of the CI Plus LLP specification.
The CI+ specification optionally allows the CAM to use communication channels that are available on the host.
This can be used as part of a conditional access system or as an interaction channel.
The resource allows the receiver to record protected content and to play it back at a later date.
SAS (Specific Application Support) provides a communication channel between the application on the CI+ CAM and an MHP application on the receiver.
Ocean Blue's CI+ software stack, which has passed the conformance tests defined and implemented by the SmarDTV test kit, has been registered with the CI Plus LLP.
The SmarDTV test kit validates the CI+ CAM and host authentication processes, secure communication, transport-stream decryption and copy-protection information.
It also tests the other parts of the specification including software download, localisation and man-machine interface.
All three software components can be supplied on their own for integration into third-party modules or as a complete turnkey CI+ solution.
