Systems and methods are disclosed for performing anti-piracy countermeasures in order to prevent unauthorized access of protected content. A conditional access system may be modified to include a counter. The counter is incremented every time the conditional access system receives a request that is a potential indication of pirate activity. The counter may also be decremented every time the conditional access system receives a request indicative of legitimate activity. If the conditional access system receives a management message containing a key required to access content keys, the conditional access system cheeks the counter. If the counter is below a threshold value, the conditional access system obtains the key. However, if the counter is above the threshold value, the conditional access system disregards the key contained in the management message, thereby losing access to protected content.
