  • Generating fingerprinted content data for provision to receivers
    Patent number: 10355867
    Abstract: A method for generating, from initial content data, output content data for provision to one or more receivers, wherein the initial content data is encoded according to a coding scheme, wherein for a quantity of data encoded according to the coding scheme, the coding scheme provides a mechanism for including in the quantity of encoded data additional data such that a decoder for the coding scheme, upon decoding the quantity of encoded data, does not use the additional data to generate decoded data, the method comprising: selecting one or more portions of the initial content data; for each selected portion, generating a data construct that comprises a plurality of data structures, each data structure comprising data, including a version of the selected portion, that is encrypted using a corresponding encryption process different from each encryption process used to encrypt data in the other data structures, wherein the data construct is arranged such that using a decryption process that corresponds to the encr
