Content Protection for Live Sports and Ticketed Events
Connect tickets, subscriptions, registrations, or learner enrollment to protected playback. DRM-X applies DRM licensing, viewer policies, and concurrent stream limits while the supported AWS workflow packages and encrypts the live stream.
01 / DRM-X 6.0
Protect event access and prepare for demand
Credential sharing
Use account-related concurrent-stream limits and renewal decisions. A stream limit is not a permanent device limit.
Peak license demand
Forecast the launch peak, late joins, and renewals. Agree capacity and support before selling access.
Device failures
Rehearse the actual package and player on the devices your audience will use.
02 / DRM-X 6.0
Connect your ticketing or subscription platform
Your backend verifies the viewer and the event access period. DRM-X processes the license request under the selected playback policy.
Your supported AWS workflow packages and encrypts the stream. Key exchange and licensing use DRM-X; the CDN delivers encrypted media.
03 / DRM-X 6.0
Before, during, and after the broadcast
Before the event
Forecast demand and regions. Confirm devices, codecs, policies, service commitments, incident contacts, and a full rehearsal.
During the event
Monitor license outcomes and player errors alongside AWS and CDN delivery. Use agreed support and incident contacts.
After the event
Close sessions through the integration, review usage and failures, and investigate incidents. Apply separate rights for any replay catalog.
04 / DRM-X 6.0
Prepare the viewer experience
- Choose supported web, mobile, and television paths.

- Provide useful playback errors and recovery behavior.
- Recheck premium-quality and external-display policies on physical devices.
Questions
Common questions
Can I keep my ticketing platform?
Yes. Your platform verifies the ticket or subscriber and requests authorized playback. DRM-X handles the corresponding device license exchange.
Do concurrent-stream limits restrict the number of registered devices?
They control simultaneous viewing through account-related license and renewal decisions. They are not a general device-registration or blacklist feature.
Can DRM-X support my expected audience size?
DRM-X operates cloud licensing on AWS. Plan expected audiences, event peaks, regions, and service commitments with our team before launch. Capacity for a named audience requires an agreed plan and applicable service commitments.
