Overview
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 recommended 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.
What it reported doing in 2020
The oatc board decided and voted to dissolve and shutdown the corporation and transfer the remaining assets to streaming video alliance (sva). All the activities in 2020 were focused on negotiating the asset transfer agreement with sva and to shutdown and dissolve the corporation.
