LONDON, Feb. 04, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cartesian, Inc. (NASDAQ:CRTN) wholly
owned subsidiary, Farncombe, has completed its ARC security assessment for a
leading global provider of consumer and industrial electronic equipment. The
assessment was done to ensure its forthcoming Ultra HD Blu-ray(TM) player meets
the recently released Advanced Access Content System 2 (AACS2) security
specifications.
The engagement follows Farncombe's recent appointment by the Advanced Access
Content System Licensing Administrator (AACS LA) as the standards association's
first Authorized Robustness Consultant (ARC). The appointment recognizes
Farncombe's expertise in video content protection and hardware security design.
As an ARC, Farncombe has responsibility for assessing the security robustness of
Ultra HD Blu-ray devices manufactured by AACS2 licensees.
AACS2 is the latest content protection technology for securing Ultra HD content
on physical media. As the first ARC in the ecosystem, Farncombe plays a critical
role in the AACS2 product compliance and certification process.
"As leading Ultra HD Blu-ray manufacturers roll out their next generation
devices, we are well-positioned to test, implement, and secure their vast array
