Summary

Recommendation ITU-T J.1011 specifies an architecture for exchangeable, embedded conditional access/digital rights management or CA/DRM solutions, enabling consumer premises equipment (CPE), which are capable of receiving broadcast and broadband content, to download CA/DRM clients under a trusted environment. By utilizing a downloadable multi-CA/DRM service, entitled consumers can consume broadcast and broadband content, which is controlled by digital rights management (DRM) and/or CA systems, even though a CPE does not have a required content-related CA/DRM client available, by downloading it from a trusted source into various types of CPEs including set-top boxes (STBs), smart TVs, PCs, smart phones and/or smart tablets.
