IPTV DetectionMap the supply chain. Cut it at the egress.

IPTV piracy is industrial: panels, resellers, app builders and CDN intermediaries operate as a coordinated supply chain. VIVIROS reverse-maps the entire chain — from the end-user app to the upstream stream source — and triggers takedowns where the chain is most expensive to rebuild.

// 01 · The problem

Whack-a-mole works for moles, not for industrial piracy.

Every IPTV restream you remove is replaced by another panel an hour later — because you removed the leaf, not the trunk. VIVIROS treats IPTV piracy as a network-forensics problem. We invest in mapping the upstream graph (panels, billing rails, CDN egress, app distributors) before triggering enforcement, so each takedown disrupts dozens of downstream resellers.

Pirate panels rebuild in hours after takedowns.
Resellers operate as franchises across messaging apps.
Payments funnel through high-risk processors and crypto rails.
App builders distribute via sideloaded APKs and TV-OS stores.

// 02 · How VIVIROS approaches it

Cut the trunk, not the leaves.

We build a continuous supply-chain map: streaming sources, panel software, reseller storefronts, payment processors and CDN egress points. Enforcement is sequenced from highest-leverage upstream nodes first, with coordinated payment-rail and ISP escalation. The result is permanent supply destruction, not temporary disappearance.
