control content security solution, with the new Live Folder encryption on-the
fly feature, in the Tech Retreat’s Innovation Zone. Employed by studios,
independent producers, post-production facilities and others around the globe,
MediaSeal protects sensitive pre-release media during post-production, dubbing,
localization and review, reducing the risk from cybercrime, accidental
distribution and piracy. Fortium is a member of HPA’s IMF User group and will
be demonstrating in the Innovation Zone’s section for IMF User Group members.
Additionally, Fortium CEO

the risk of piracy and protect content throughout the production cycle. It is
scheduled for Wednesday, February 21 at 7:30 a.m.

In a session titled
Cybercrime is Worse: Here’s Help, Gilliat-Smith will discuss the expanding
scope of cyber threats and describe what media companies can do to can avoid
becoming victims. It is scheduled for Thursday, February 22 at 7:30 a.m. “Even
behind a firewall the threat of cybercrime is real, and every company needs to
take the threat seriously,” Gilliat-Smith said. “It’s essential both to
understand the nature and scale of the threat, and to take sensible measures to
protect sensitive content.”

MediaSeal combines AES
encryption with multi-layer access control and security auditing. Files are
encrypted at-rest locally, centrally or in the cloud (an MPAA and CDSA
guideline). Editors and reviewers can work on media securely, within segregated
networks, with access control permissions managed across entire workflows,
supported by comprehensive audit trails of user activity. MediaSeal is used on
many of the current top TV and motion picture titles.
MediaSeal supports the IMF
standard and protects all media formats from Pro Res to QT seamlessly in all
editing workflows – Pro Tools, Media Composer, Premier, Final Cut. Ideal for
collaborative workflows without impacting on the creative process. Fortium will
