CCAD is refining technology introduced by Comcast,
the largest cable operator in the United States, and Motorola, a global
supplier of cable equipment and
mobile equipment and services.
CCAD's security device gives consumers the
ability to access cable programming in a secure
environment, using cable set-top boxes, digital
cable ready TVs, personal computers, mobile
devices or equipment built into TVs.
CCAD is developing downloadable security
technology based on Motorola's satellite & cable
security system MediaCipher, which was developed in the early 1990s
as high-definition television emerged.
MediaCipher is a cable security technology that's being used
in North America by such companies as Comcast Cable, Time Warner Cable
and Cox Communications

CCAD
is modifying the technology so it can be used
in a variety of cable and consumer devices. When the next-generation
cable technology is
in place for cable providers, the cable devices
can be portable, so if a consumer moves they can take the set-top
box with them. The cable
equipment using this technology can also be
sold at retail outlets, making it more available to consumers.
It is anticipated that products incorporating CCAD's
technology will be launched in 2008.
