At the recently ended Computex ’09 in Taipei, Taiwan, embedded security solution provider Discretix announced that its robust, flexible Digital Rights Management (DRM) solution is now available for Intel’s MID platform. The solution features Discretix’ Multi-Scheme DRM client, and is optimized for Intel’s second-generation MID platform, codenamed “Moorestown”, and Linux-based Moblin OS.

Discretix’s Multi-Scheme DRM client is a versatile solution to protect the distribution and consumption of premium content across a range of mobile devices. With today’s announcement, MIDs based on Intel’s Moorestown platform will be able to support the major DRM schemes in use today – OMA DRM v1.0, OMA DRM v2.x and Microsoft WM-DRM 10. PCPRM, OMA BCAST or new schemes may also be added as they become available. As one of the world’s leading embedded security technology for mobile devices, Discretix’s solution delivers an outstanding level of security while overcoming the challenges of performance, power consumption and silicon footprint.

Commenting on the announcement, Discretix’ Raanan Tzemach said: “Discretix’s Multi-Scheme DRM offers a robust solution to MID system manufacturers and meets the most stringent requirements of operators. In combination with Intel’s Moorestown platform and Linux-based Moblin OS, it will help support a broad range of business models and offerings for a superior user experience. As a company, we’re excited to be working closely with Intel to make such advancements possible.”
