The league is deploying Nagra Streaming Security’s AI-powered monitoring to quantify piracy threats and measure enforcement impact across all fixtures
Nagravision has partnered with the English Football League (EFL) to help “detect, disrupt and deter” live sports piracy across all matches of the 2025/6 football season.
The EFL will utilise Nagra Streaming Security’s piracy monitoring to quantify the scale of piracy threats against their live sports content.
This provides a holistic view of pirate activity across content rights holders’ portfolios through AI-enabled insights and is based on a 30-year case history of global pirate activity.
Nagra Streaming Security’s anti-piracy intelligence capability will also enable the EFL to measure the impact of takedown and enforcement activities.
“Nagravision’s dynamic, real-time monitoring is an effective and important part of our work to protect our content, clubs and their supporters,” said Russell Byrne, head of broadcast operations at the English Football League. “The level of information available to us means we can better monitor, identify and take down illegal streams as they appear across various platforms, and ensure that we are providing the best possible experience to those that pay for legitimate services.”
“Nagravision is a long-time advocate of the need to protect the integrity of the content ecosystem for sports rights holders and works across the industry to achieve this,” adds Morten Solbakken, EVP & COO of Nagravision. “Our advanced anti-piracy monitoring and enforcement solutions empower rights holders such as the English Football League to combat illegal streaming and safeguard their revenues, ensuring true fans enjoy content securely and legally.”
