Frost Radar™: Digital Media Content Security and Anti-Piracy Services, 2023

This Frost Radar™ plots 14 Growth and Innovation leaders in the content security and anti-piracy services industry that offer services primarily oriented to a media and entertainment customer base and prioritizing video content.

The Frost Radar™ is a robust analytical tool that benchmarks companies' innovation focus and growth performance in an industry.

The vertical Growth Index (GI) is a measure of a company's growth performance and track record, along with its ability to develop and execute a fully aligned growth strategy and vision, a robust growth pipeline system, and effective sales and marketing strategies. For growth performance and track record, this Frost Radar™ considers companies’ revenues for 2020, 2021, and 2022; revenue projections for 2023; and traction in the number of deployments and integrations, deployment sizes, and customer numbers. These metrics are compounded with three other qualitative criteria— growth pipeline, vision and strategy, and sales and marketing—to determine a company’s positioning on the vertical axis. Considering this, a provider serving many large content distributors would not necessarily score high on the GI if its growth rates across the years and other qualitative metrics score low. Similarly, a smaller, more nascent provider will not necessarily score low just because it serves smaller content producers or content distributors. All ?ve criteria of the GI have been carefully evaluated to position each company accurately and fairly on the Frost Radar™.

The horizontal Innovation Index (II) is a measure of a company's ability to develop products, features, services, or solutions (with a clear understanding of disruptive Mega Trends) that are globally applicable, able to evolve and expand to serve multiple markets, and aligned to customers’ changing needs.

Frost & Sullivan analyzes numerous companies in an industry. Those selected for further analysis based on their leadership or other distinctions are benchmarked across 10 Growth and Innovation criteria to reveal their position on the Frost Radar™. The publication presents competitive pro?les of each company on the Frost Radar™ considering their strengths and the opportunities that best fit those strengths.
