Abstract

See full text

An encryption control system to process an input transport data stream into an output transport data stream includes an input demultiplexer, a first secure microprocessor, a second secure microprocessor and an output multiplexer. The input transport data stream includes first entitlement managment message data. The input demultiplexer culls the first entitlement managment message data from the input transport data stream, the first entitlement management message data including an encrypted multi-session key. The first secure microprocessor processes the first entitlement management message data to recover the multi-session key by decrypting the encrypted multi-session key using a first algorithm. The second secure microprocessor re-encrypts the multi-session key using a second algorithm and formats second entitlement management message data based on the first entitlement management message data with the re-encrypted multi-session key substituted for the encrypted multi-session key. The output multiplexer provides the output transport data stream based on the input transport data stream with the second entitlement management message data substituted for the first entitlement management message data.
