OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) are companies that design and build products or components that are then sold or marketed by another company under their brand name.
In the context of streaming and content protection, OEMs typically produce hardware like set-top boxes, smart TVs, or integrated systems that incorporate software or security solutions such as digital rights management (DRM).
A major OEM might be a manufacturer of a smart TV that includes Verimatrix’s content protection technology, enabling secure streaming from various OTT services.
