Content Protection Policy

Each Platform has a Content Protection Policy, this controls how the DRM will be enforced.

Users should consider the type of content they provide access to in order to select the appropriate Delivery Policy.

Standard - this is the most permissible, content can be play in HD on all devices.

Studio 1 - this policy restricts content on lower trust devices to SD.

Studio 2 - this policy restricts content to not allow playback on lower trust devices.
