Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Chambers of Commerce & Business Leagues
Mission: Open authentication technology committee (oatc) are developers and licensors of video programming content ("programmers"), multichannel video programming distributors ("mvpd") and technology companies engaged in developing products that support online access to digital video content. The oatc's primary goal is to improve business conditions for programmers, mvpds and other participants in the online digital video content industry by developing voluntary technical standards for implementing a system of authentication and authorization to provide consumers with "single sign on" access to subscription video content across cooperating internet sites and multichannel service providers. The technical standards are intended to provide software interfaces (specifications and best practices) that are a framework for authenticating a consumer's subscription to an appropriate service and authorizing the consumer's access to content, while maintaining security and consumer privacy.
Programs: The oatc focused on, and made major progress on, the following 3 key strategic priorities: 1. Home based authentication (hba)for connected devices deliverable: industry specification for how to use hba for connected devices. 2. Active stream concurrency monitoring/resource usage monitoring (rum)deliverable: industry specifications to support implementation of concurrency monitoring/resource usage monitoring from a user perspective, including messaging, user interface/experience options, and user touch points. 3. Ease-provider discoverydeliverable: specification to identify a user's mvpd and proof of concept (poc) test bed for developers to validate it.
on september 21, 2017, oatc hosted a technical working group meeting where the technical working groups met to progress their work on developing specifications for home based authentication (hba) for connected devices, active stream concurrency monitoring (rum), and ease/provider discovery.
