Partnership Between NAGRAVISION and English Football League Targets Sports Piracy

NAGRAVISION, part of the Kudelski Group, has joined forces with the English Football League (EFL) to address live sports piracy for the 2025/6 season. This collaboration aims to curb illegal streaming across IPTV, web, and social media platforms for all EFL matches. Utilizing NAGRA's Streaming Security solution, the partnership seeks to detect, disrupt, and deter unauthorized content dissemination.

The EFL's primary objective is to maintain the value of live sports content while supporting clubs and enhancing fan experience. The solution will provide dynamic piracy monitoring, helping to identify and measure piracy threats. Russell Byrne from the EFL has emphasized the importance of real-time monitoring to protect content and legitimate users.

NAGRA's solution offers comprehensive insights into piracy activities, supporting rights holders in revenue protection and compliance management. This initiative reinforces efforts to secure live sports content, leveraging technologies such as multi-DRM and real-time monitoring.
