Media and entertainment industry body elects Alibaba Cloud to advise its board of directors.

The cloud computing and data intelligence arm of Alibaba Group, Alibaba Cloud has been elected to the Content Delivery and Security Association (CDSA) Technology Committee.

Alibaba Cloud is one of the first China-based global cloud service provider to be elected to the Committee.

In statement the Committee said Alibaba was elected because of “its robust, secure and scalable cloud platform”, currently used by many global media and entertainment organisations.

The Committee is composed of members from the service provider community and will advise CDSA’s Board and Content Advisors on the new control framework and business model for application and cloud security assessments, new technology solutions and improved workflows for IP protection, security and compliance, that are reshaping the way content is produced, managed and delivered.

Alibaba Cloud is also a new member of CDSA and the Media and Entertainment Service Alliance (MESA). As one of the first Chinese company to become a member of MESA, the cloud provider will work with the 150+ member companies to drive efficiencies and help enable digital transformation of the media and entertainment industry (M&E).

One of six technology communities within MESA, CDSA supports cybersecurity and content protection solutions within the M&E industry, including those responsible for film, television, games, music, and entertainment.

According to Guy Finley president at MESA and CDSA said Alibaba has demonstrated it embraces a collaborative approach along with their robust abilities in securing content for the entertainment industry.

“We look forward to working with these industry experts to drive new initiatives and broader global engagement with content owners around content protection and information security technology solutions for media and entertainment,” he said.

A number of “renowned production studios” – including Animal Logic and Territory Studio – have partnered with Alibaba Cloud, assured by its ability to meet dynamic production needs.

Alibaba range of cloud technologies to drive efficiencies in media production, from improving the speed of decision making through to easier cross-site collaboration with artists and developer teams across the world, said Finley.

These latest memberships follow Alibaba Cloud being assessed by the Trusted Partner Network earlier this year.
