Protect Video Content Against Piracywith Axinom DRM

Yes, we provide free evaluation accounts.

During a free 60-day trial, you can integrate Axinom DRM into your system. You only pay when you are production-ready. Just request your free evaluation account via the chat below.

You are billed based on your consumption. We offer two models to choose from: we can bill by the number of generated DRM licenses or by the number of monthly active users. After each month we determine your consumption and bill you according to our pricing tiers.

No. There is no minimum fee, you only pay for the usage. I.e., if you don’t use the service in a given month, you don’t pay anything.

No. You only pay for the DRM licenses or monthly active users (see above).

However, you may deliberately choose to book additional services, such as premium support, hypercare, or additional guaranteed capacity.

No. You can sign a product licensing agreement without providing credit card data.

You receive monthly invoices for the previous month based on your consumption. You can pay the invoice via a bank transfer or using a credit card if you prefer.

• Axinom DRM protects video content in the first place. It is also a good fit for audio, because you can see audio as a special case of a video with a single audio-track and without a video-track. The same packaging and encryption technology applies. You can use the same players, just don’t display any video and only play audio.
• Other types of content, such as PDFs, cannot be protected with Axinom DRM.

Yes. Axinom DRM offers real-time reporting and monitoring tools that let you detect abusive patterns and take action, e. g. by blocking fraudulent users.

You can migrate to Axinom DRM easily, if you have control over your content key database. Axinom DRM allows you to import your existing keys into its secure key store.

If you do not have control over your encryption keys then re-packaging your content might be necessary. With Axinom Encoding we offer a service that excels at re-encoding or just re-packaging content.

YouTube uses its own video processing stack and uses its own protection mechanism. Axinom DRM cannot be applied to YouTube.

Yes. You will need to take two steps: encrypt your pre-existing content and create entitlements to authorise playback at runtime. You can have a player within your WordPress site which requests DRM licenses at runtime.

No, integration is straightforward. Axinom DRM uses industry standards, provides open well-documented APIs, integration documentation and code samples. What you have to do in an nutshell is:

1. Configure Axinom DRM Key Service in your transcoding/packaging solution.
2. Generate an entitlement message for each playback request.
3. Configure your video player to request a DRM license from Axinom DRM License Service.

Yes, at least the basic development skills are needed. You have to make sure to generate entitlements for your users which properly reflect your business needs for content protection. You have to implement, deploy and configure all pieces (packager, entitlement, player) in a consistent and secure manner.

Axinom DRM supports most of the transcoders/packagers and video players out of the box. Our documentation provides instructions on all popular software solutions.

If the product you use is not listed there, there are general instructions which help integrate any other product.

Yes. Axinom provides basic product support free of charge for all customers and evaluators. For customers, we provide also paid support options.

You can also book a DRM Developer Bootcamp training to kick-start your implementation.

You can access the errors from the logs via Axinom Portal. With paid support options, you can get a full reporting and monitoring solution based on Kibana / Elastic Cloud, including access to raw logs.

We guarantee the service availability of 99,999% and continuously monitor our systems. You can view real-time service status at status.axinom.com. In the event of a disruption, our incident response team is available through a ticketing portal and a 24/7 hotline.

Axinom DRM is deployed across multiple nodes in all major regions worldwide. Traffic is automatically routed to the nearest server, ensuring low latency.

In case of anomalies, traffic is dynamically re-routed to maintain performance. We can also deploy additional instances based on demand in specific regions.

We follow a multi-cloud strategy, with deployments across Azure, AWS, and other providers. A failure in one cloud provider does not impact the availability of Axinom DRM.

Axinom DRM auto-scales to meet demand. Our infrastructure has been tested to handle loads of up to 100,000 license requests per second while maintaining performance.

For anticipated spikes—such as during live events—you can reserve guaranteed capacity in advance. We also offer a hypercare service for critical events.

While we strive to meet and exceed your expectations, we understand the importance of avoiding vendor lock-in and minimizing supplier dependency. If you choose to migrate to another provider, we will fully support you in the transition. Your DRM keys can be migrated without the need to re-encrypt your entire content library.

Axinom has an Information Security Management System (ISMS) compliant with ISO 27001:2022. It passed a 3rd-party audit, and we will publish a certificate as soon as we get it (expected: July 2025). Axinom DRM is fully GDPR-compliant.
