Viaccess is an encrypting system for Digital television developed by France Télécom. There are four versions in use today, Viaccess PC2.3, Viaccess PC2.4, Viaccess PC2.5 and Viaccess PC2.6. The first is sometimes referred to as Viaccess 1, and the latter three, although different, as Viaccess 2. PC2.3 and PC2.4 are known to be ineffective, and many set-top boxes can be 'patched' to decode Viaccess signals without payment, however PC2.5 and PC2.6 are secure, with PC2.5 remaining secure two years after its first commercial deployment. PC2.6 was introduced at the end of 2005. There are two modifications of Viaccess in use, called TPS Crypt, used by TPS, and Thalescrypt, used by Canal Satellite France.
Viaccess is currently used by a large number of providers. These include;
TPS
ART
NTV

Viasat
