Penetration Testing That Understands Media Content Is the Asset

Media and entertainment companies protect some of the highest-value IP on the planet. Raxis delivers human-led, AI-augmented penetration testing built for the unique infrastructure of studios, production houses, streaming platforms, and content distributors, where a single breach can mean leaked content, ransomed workflows, or destroyed audience trust.

Production Pipeline Security

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

Streaming & Distribution Platforms

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

Vendor & Third-Party Access

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

The Problem with Most Media & Entertainment Pentests

Media companies have unique security challenges: high-value unreleased content, complex vendor ecosystems, production environments that blend creative tools with enterprise IT, and timelines where a disruption costs millions. Most pentest vendors don’t understand any of that.

Production Infrastructure Gets Treated Like Corporate IT

Most pentest vendors scan your firewall and call it done. They never touch the production pipeline where unreleased content actually lives: editing workstations, render farms, Aspera and MASV file transfer systems, cloud-based dailies review platforms, and the network segments connecting them. Raxis tests the infrastructure that handles your most valuable assets, because that’s what attackers target.

Vendor Access Is the Biggest Blind Spot

Media production relies on an ecosystem of external partners: VFX studios, post-production houses, localization vendors, and distribution partners all need access to your content pipeline. Each connection is an entry point. If your pentest doesn’t test the remote access, VPNs, and integration points these vendors use, you’re missing the attack path responsible for some of the most damaging content leaks in the industry.

Ransomware Targets Production Timelines

Attackers know that media companies operate on immovable deadlines. A ransomware attack that encrypts a render farm three weeks before a premiere creates enormous pressure to pay. A generic pentest won’t simulate the phishing-to-lateral-movement-to-production-shutdown kill chain that ransomware groups actually execute against studios. Raxis tests the full path.

Streaming Platforms Are High-Value Web Applications

Your streaming service handles subscriber authentication, payment processing, content DRM, and API-driven distribution. That’s a web application with the same vulnerabilities as any SaaS platform, plus the added stakes of content piracy. Most media pentests skip the application layer entirely. Raxis tests streaming platforms with the same depth we bring to any high-value software environment.

Why Raxis for Media & Entertainment Penetration Testing

Secure the full content lifecycle

OSCP-certified engineers test production networks, post-production infrastructure, cloud storage, streaming platforms, and distribution systems end-to-end. Content is protected from ingest through delivery.

Test without disrupting production

Raxis coordinates with your production and IT teams to test within schedules that protect active projects. Zero-downtime testing methods for live broadcast and streaming environments. No surprises on delivery day.

Evaluate your entire vendor ecosystem

We test the access points, integrations, and remote connections that production partners and distribution vendors use to reach your content. The weakest link in your pipeline is often someone else’s security posture.

Align with MPAA, SOC 2, and ISO 27001

Raxis testing aligns with MPAA content security best practices, SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria, and ISO 27001 controls. Your report supports compliance requirements and demonstrates content protection to studios, distributors, and partners.

Complete confidentiality under NDA

All engagements operate under strict NDAs with isolated data handling. Raxis never copies, stores, or exposes client content. Your unreleased assets and proprietary workflows stay confidential throughout the engagement.

Continuous coverage with PTaaS

Media environments change with every production: new vendors, new platforms, new distribution channels. Raxis Attack (PTaaS) delivers continuous testing with real-time results and unlimited retesting through the Raxis One portal so your security posture evolves with your projects.
