MCAS solution
MCAS is a solution that assigns a secure identity to every critical system. This „machine identity“ ensures that the data sent and received by the system in the field is secure and encrypted. The system's software upgrade process is also secure. MCAS is primarily used in the pay-TV market.
The Swiss machine identity for critical embedded systems
MCAS is primarily used in the pay-TV market, allowing pay-TV providers to maintain control over their set-top boxes deployed in the field while continuing to utilize proprietary security solutions from external vendors. Customers no longer have to choose between security and independence.
MCAS integrates seamlessly with various proprietary security solutions on the market. The data stored in MCAS is subject to Swiss law, thereby guaranteeing enhanced data protection.
