High-Definition Content Protection (HDP) is a feature on PlayStation 4 that allows users to protect their games from being pirated. This feature is available through the PlayStation Network settings and is enabled by default. If you choose not to enable HDCP, your games will be unprotected and can be pirated. If you have a game that uses HDCP, you will need to set it up so that it uses the PlayStation 4’s built-in security system, called “HDCP 2.2.” This system requires an extra piece of hardware called a “HDCP decoder” to work properly. You can find these devices at most electronics stores or online. Once you have set up HDCP 2.2, your games will be protected from piracy and anyone who tries to pirate them will likely fail because they won’t be able to play the game without having it corrupted or lost data.
