Managed Services
NAGRA performs activities and responsibilities normally undertaken by our customers.
It can be, for example, managing key steps of DTV projects and associated operations for them, the quick launch of new services or the upgrade of existing services with new features or CE devices.
NAGRA offers four types of Managed Services.
Cloud Services
NAGRA can provide its customers with the unequalled feature set of solutions under the form of professional cloud services.
The NAGRA CAS Cloud service allows pay-TV service providers to fully rely on NAGRA Media Access and NAGRA Managed Services for the deployment of a fully functional cloud-based content protection service.
The NAGRA Multiscreen Cloud Service combines NAGRA’s most comprehensive multiscreen solution feature set with a fully packaged managed service offering optimised monetisation of services for Pay-TV service provider or free-to-air broadcasters.
The NAGRA Cloud services enable the quick launch of new services with no technical complexity, reduced investments and fixed costs, increased flexibility and margins. Remaining focused on revenue generating activities, on cultivating customers loyalty and generating extra growth, NAGRA customers can scale their service and pay as they grow.
On-Site CAS and Headend Operations
NAGRA CAS and Headend Operations allow service providers to fully rely on NAGRA Managed Services for all CAS and headend related operations - on a dedicated platform within their premises. It is a very good alternative for a service provider wishing to run pay-TV services with limited resources and keep focused on revenue generating activities. With this option, NAGRA fully operates the customer’s Conditional Access System and Headend, and is responsible for all related tasks and services.
Business Continuity
NAGRA Business Continuity consists of the implementation of processes and tools to ensure high system availability and the continuation and improvement of the service providers’ activity despite challenges and incidents they might face. Services can include:
- Consulting
- System checks
- Testing for resilience and processes for disaster and data recovery, redundancy testing and incident management
- Inventory and release management
Client Device / STB Managed Services
For pay-TV service providers, staying ahead of the game and more and more sophisticated technical STBs can tax resources that could be better used on core business competencies. Outsourcing STB related tasks through managed services can be an excellent alternative for service providers, providing them with increased flexibility and agility as well as higher revenues driven by better STB performance and service. Additional benefits may include access to skills they might not have in-house such as user experience, security or system architecture and the added assurance that these skills will be up-to-date and scalable.
NAGRA offers the following Client Device / STB Managed Services:
- STB UIs & Application Design, Development and Customization
- STB Certification and Validation
- STB Security
- STB Software Maintenance, Support and Upgrade
