In a move to protect the huge income the British exchequer earns from the film industry, the government has agreed to fund the year-long project CISE for establishing a content security protocol and accompanying software tools for VFX post production.
The founding partners – Digital Negative, Moving Picture Co, Framestore, Milk and Sohonet – will conduct the research required for an automated system that will protect content from all clients, many of whom have different security requirements.
