System and method for processing and protecting content
First Claim
1. A system for processing and protecting content, comprising:
- a first device comprising an integrated circuit that comprises a content processing system and a security system, the security system comprising a digital rights manager; and
a second device coupled to the first device, the first device and the second device being part of a network,wherein the network receives content and control information via the first device,wherein the content processing system processes incoming content based upon at least the control information, andwherein the integrated circuit protects the content before placing the content on the network.

Abstract
Systems and methods that process and protect content are provided. In one example, a system may include, for example, a first device coupled to a second device. The first device may include, for example, an integrated circuit that may include a content processing system and a security system. The security system may include, for example, a digital rights manager. The first device and the second device may be part of a network. The network receives content and control information via the first device. The content processing system processes incoming content based upon at least the control information. The integrated circuit protects the content before placing the content on the network.
