The win comes as a result of the agreement between Beep Science and Huawei Technologies to jointly offer Beep Science's DRM software on Huawei's service delivery platform.
Oslo - Beep Science AS, a leading provider of mobile Digital Rights Management (DRM) software today announced the provision of an OMA DRM solution to Mobily (Etihad Etisalat), the fastest growing mobile operator in the Middle East & North Africa.
A total solution consisting of Huawei's service delivery platform and Beep Science's DRM Server is integrated at the operator's premises thus enabling Mobily with OMA DRM functionality. The integrated solution supports all OMA DRM compliant mobile phones, providing dynamic "on-the-fly" content packaging and digital rights license generation and delivery. With this implementation Mobily will be able to develop a range of new business models with rich media content, supporting the operator's innovative and modern services that have positioned it as one of the most advanced operators in terms of content services.
The cooperation with Mobily, key mobile player in the Middle East, means an important step for Beep Science by adding a new operator customer in a region not entered by the company until now. In addition this new customer represents yet another win for the DRM vendor and for the OMA DRM spectrum in general proving the robustness and maturity of Beep Science DRM products and the force of the open industry standards.
"Beep Science is pleased to work with key innovative and dynamic customers, such as Mobily, as we share a common goal - to enable the market with exciting content services." says Mr. Jan Rune Hetle, CEO of Beep Science AS. "Many operators have made firm commitments towards deploying OMA DRM. We are confident that OMA DRM will be deployed widely in Europe, Asia, Middle East, and South America. Mobily's deployment of OMA DRM protected content delivery service is yet another testament to this."
"We are pleased with Beep Science's DRM solution, responsiveness, and support quality which prove our decision of selecting Beep Science as our DRM Server vendor to be the right one," says Johnsheen Zhang, President of Huawei's Digital Media Product Line.
This is the first announcement of a joint win resulting from the agreement between Beep Science and Huawei to offer Beep Science's Digital Rights Management software to operators worldwide. The companies have also won other major projects that will soon be announced.
