Norwood, MA – March 27, 2007 – Open Channel Solutions (OCS), a leading provider of high-tech entitlement management solutions, today announced that it has signed a partnership with Nalpeiron, a leading digital rights management vendor.  As part of the agreement, OCS’s Poetic system will be integrated with Nalpeiron PRO-Tector to provide the back-end for a streamlined, end-to-end solution for software copy protection, licensing and entitlement management.

“Nalpeiron provides an excellent technology for helping technology vendors protect their intellectual property while making it easier to manage licensing and renewals.  We’re pleased that they’ve chosen OCS Poetic to extend those capabilities and enable a true end-to-end licensing management solution right out of the box,” said Ed Rose, CEO of OCS.

“OCS’ impressive customer list is a testament to the value that Poetic delivers.  Their proven, highly scalable solution for key distribution and entitlement management makes Poetic a great complement to our PRO-Tector suite.  Together we provide customers with all the functionality required for a complete software protection and licensing management solution,” said Jon Gillespie-Brown, founder and CEO of Nalpeiron.

OCS and Nalpeiron will develop a standard interface for Poetic to generate and manage license keys and entitlements along with PRO-Tector.  The combined solution will enable publishers to package, price and license their products and provide a comprehensive, easy to use entitlement management capability.
