Media & Entertainment Penetration Testing

A leaked film costs millions. A ransomware hit on your pipeline costs everything. Test first.

Production Pipeline Security

Editing suites, render farms, file transfer systems, digital asset management, and the networks from pre-production to final delivery.

Streaming & Distribution Platforms

Web applications, APIs, CDN configurations, DRM implementations, subscriber authentication, and content rights management systems.

Vendor & Third-Party Access

The remote access, VPN connections, and integration points that production partners, VFX houses, and distribution vendors use to reach your content.

The Problem with Most Media & Entertainment Pentests

Unreleased content, sprawling vendor ecosystems, creative tools mixed with enterprise IT, and immovable deadlines. Most pentest vendors understand none of it.

Pipelines Treated Like Corporate IT

Firewall scans never reach where unreleased content lives: editing workstations, render farms, Aspera and MASV file transfer systems, cloud-based dailies review platforms, and the network segments connecting them.

Vendor Access Goes Untested

VFX studios, post-production houses, localization vendors, and distribution partners each add an entry point. Untested remote access, VPNs, and integration points are behind the industry’s most damaging content leaks.

Ransomware Targets Deadlines

A render farm encrypted three weeks before a premiere creates enormous pressure to pay. Raxis simulates the phishing-to-lateral-movement-to-production-shutdown kill chain ransomware groups run against studios.

Streaming Is a Web App

Subscriber authentication, payment processing, content DRM, and API-driven distribution carry every SaaS vulnerability plus the stakes of piracy. Most media pentests skip the application layer; Raxis doesn’t.

Why Raxis for Media & Entertainment Penetration Testing

The Full Content Lifecycle

OSCP-certified engineers test production networks, post-production infrastructure, cloud storage, streaming platforms, and distribution systems by hand, from ingest through delivery.

No Production Disruption

Testing scheduled around active projects, with zero-downtime methods for live broadcast and streaming environments.

The Vendor Ecosystem

The access points, integrations, and remote connections partners use to reach your content. The weakest link is often someone else’s.

MPAA, SOC 2, ISO 27001

Aligned with MPAA content security best practices, SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria, and ISO 27001 controls, with a report that shows studios, distributors, and partners the evidence.

Confidential Under NDA

Strict NDAs and isolated data handling. Raxis never copies, stores, or exposes client content.

Continuous Coverage

Raxis Attack (PTaaS) delivers continuous testing, real-time results, and unlimited retesting through the Raxis One portal as vendors, platforms, and channels change.

FAQ: Media and Entertainment Penetration Testing

What is penetration testing for media and entertainment companies?

A hands-on simulated attack on production infrastructure, streaming platforms, content distribution systems, and supporting networks to find the flaws behind content leaks, ransomware disruption, and access to unreleased assets.

What systems does Raxis test for media clients?

Production networks, editing and post-production infrastructure, render farms, file transfer systems, cloud storage, digital asset management platforms, streaming web applications and APIs, CDN configurations, DRM implementations, subscriber authentication, and the vendor access points, VPNs, and remote connections linking your pipeline to external partners.

Can Raxis test live broadcast or streaming environments?

Yes. Coordinated, zero-downtime methods and testing windows scoped with your operations team keep broadcasts, streams, and production workflows running.

How does Raxis protect our content during testing?

Strict NDAs, isolated data handling, and secure reporting channels. Raxis never copies, stores, or exposes client content, and proof-of-concept evidence never retains proprietary media assets.

How often should media companies perform penetration testing?

At least annually, and before major production launches, platform updates, or new vendor onboarding. Many media companies use Raxis Attack for continuous coverage as projects and partnerships change.

What certifications do Raxis penetration testers hold?

OSCP, CEH, GPEN, GFACT, and more, listed on our certifications page.
