D-Module is based on an FPGA which is hard to reverse engineering.
Almost all the CAS are based on a Smartcard solution which is normally not secure is not lasting for more than two years in the market before getting hacked.

D-Module offers the great flexybility of implementing a CAS system directly into the Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) which makes the attacker's life much harder the time investment is completely against the piracy profit.

D-Module is ideal for new generation LCD, Plasma or LED Television sets that are hosting a DVB-T receiver with the Common Interface slot.
D-Module is extremely flexible and working on almost the 98% of HDTV sets in the market now.

D-Module offers to CAS provider the following features:

• OTA Algorithm Exchange. It would be possible to exchange real time the encryption algorithm. This exchange can be done for the entire algorithm that calculates the Control Word.
  
  
• Anti Card-sharing soluton. Card-sharing is a painful problem in content protection. The Card-sharing is based on the real time exchange of the Control Word through internet or via satellite. This problem cannot be stopped as long as the communication between Smartcard and STB is existing. Some providers are implementing some special smartcard protocols but offuscate the Control Word but it is not enought!
  D-Module is not exchanging the Control Word to the outside world. This prevents any Card-Sharing solution.
  
  
• Customized PKI algorithm. The use of asymmetric key algorithms instead of or in addition to symmetric key algorithms protects communications or authenticating messages. The hardware implementation of these techniques of public key-private key cryptography makes the D-Module extremely flexible and secure. Public secure authetication algorithm can be implemented in VHDL.
  
  
• Unique serial numbers. Some unique serial numbers and an OTP (one Time programmable area) are available for customized application. Unique serial numbers can be used for a unique identification of the scubscriber.
  
  
• P.O.S. (Point Of Sale) activation and recharging. In case of a pre-paid CAS network it will be possible to real time activate, customize, recharge the viewer subscriptions. A on-filed POS can be positioned in stores, caffee and other public areas and can provide a series of customized services to the end user.
  
  
• Multiple Provider platform. D-Module can be used as a multi provider platform. Any provider can be implemented real time without compromising the security of others. An OTA upgrade can implement new provider to the subscriber in case of a network held by the same CAS manteiner.
  

D-Module extends the idea of Conditional Access System.

D-Module is also available with a Wi-Fi connection (802.11g) that enables the user to get connected to a broadband internet connection through a standard router.

D-Module Wi-Fi offer a wide and unimmaginable offer of services like real time On-Screen-Display (OSD) messages that can be sent via internet from the CAS base station to each single subscriber, a resctricted range of subscribers or all subscribers in the matter of seconds.

D-Module Wi-Fi can also play IP Streamings giving the opportuting of making a real IPTV streaming solution. The bandwith limit is 54MBit/s as a normal laptop.
