    IBC Innovation Awards: Some Congratulations Are in Order

    Another year, another successful IBC in the books! As usual, it was an event filled with industry innovations and newly emerging technologies being showcased across the RAI’s 15 halls. Sunday was one of the show’s biggest nights as hundreds gathered for the IBC Innovation Awards Ceremony. Split into three categories, the award winners are recognized for the “best applications of technology to achieve a real goal for the broadcaster or media company”.

    Imagine downloading half a million one hour shows, in HD, from Netflix

    Media Shuttle continues to evolve as we provide new features and capabilities, and one constant has always been our laser focus on ease of use, and support for ever more efficient workflows. But what it really all boils down to is how well the solution works for the users who actually send, receive and share files through the Media Shuttle portals. From this perspective, the breadth and depth of adoption and usage, and the rate at which these continue to grow, has been staggering. Check out some numbers from our current customers that speak louder than words.

    Upgrades? Who doesn’t hate manual upgrades?

    Enterprise software upgrades – three words that strike fear into the heart of any sysadmin running complex applications, or applications that have not been upgraded in a while. I was recently involved in upgrading an issue tracking application that had not been kept up to date (its last upgrade was 2013), and it really helped reinforce for me one of the key benefits of SaaS: “managed upgrades”.

    New Content Protection Option for Sending Files with Media Shuttle

    With the latest high-profile cyberattack within Media & Entertainment, this one on HBO, occurring just months after the much-reported hack of Netflix’s Orange is the New Black, cybersecurity and the importance of safeguarding valuable media content is once again on everyone’s mind.

    What is UX and Why Does it Matter?

    At Signiant, we pride ourselves on ease of use and providing a great user experience for all of our products. So much that we have an in-house UX Designer working side by side with our engineering, product, and marketing teams. While I’ve been working closely with Ryan since he came on board at the end of last year, I finally had the opportunity to sit down with him to learn a bit more about UX and how he applies it to everything he does.

    And Now For Something Completely Different…

    With our deep roots supporting the M&E sector, and its common need to move large files over distance, it is easy to forget that Signiant has long had customers from other industries. Often utilizing very different data types, workflows and tools – and typically involved in products and services utterly unlike those in the media space – many of these industries nevertheless share M&E’s need for fast, reliable, and secure solutions for the movement of their valuable data.

    My B-L-O-G on NAB

    After months of preparation the annual convention of the National Association of Broadcasters has come and gone. It’s no surprise that the theme of this year’s show centered around media, entertainment, and technology (NAB dubs it The M.E.T Effect ). It was clear, on and off the show floor, that the need for speed is more important than ever before.

    How Safe Is Your Content?

    Yesterday’s big “meta hacking” story that WikiLeaks has apparently released thousands of documents describing C.I.A. software for hacking a variety of devices is a timely reminder of the importance of security in our hyperconnected world. In light of this, we want to draw attention to an article, “Secure Design in a Hyperconnected World”, that appeared in M&E Journal’s Fall 2015 Edition, discussing the core secure design principles that all software developers should adhere to.
