Most Recent Questions

What features help secure a video streaming platform?

The key security features are password protection, private or unlisted videos, geographic and domain restrictions, HTTPS video delivery, HLS video encryption, and continuous system monitoring.

Video Platform, Security & DRM

How does password protection secure video content?

Password protection blocks a video from being viewed unless the viewer has the password, so keeping the password private keeps the stream secure. It is a basic method widely adopted by small businesses and organizations.

Video Platform, Security & DRM

What are private or unlisted videos?

Private and unlisted videos are hidden from search, so only people with the direct URL or platform subscribers can access them. This keeps valuable content away from random visitors and digital hacks.

Video Platform, Security & DRM

What is the difference between domain and geographic restrictions?

Domain restriction limits playback to authorized websites, so embedding a stolen embed code on another site fails. Geographic restriction whitelists specific countries by IP address so the content can only be watched from those regions.

Video Platform, Security & DRM

Why does HTTPS matter for video delivery?

HTTPS encrypts data in transit, so it cannot be altered while moving through the internet without being destroyed, which prevents tampering. It also provides authentication and protects streams from eavesdropping.

General, Security & DRM

What is HLS video encryption and how does it work?

HLS encryption, most commonly using AES, invisibly encrypts HTTP Live Streaming content so an access key is required to watch the video. It adds a significant layer of protection against interception and piracy.

General, Security & DRM

Which devices and browsers support HLS streaming?

HLS is a universal protocol supported by Chrome, Safari, and Microsoft Edge, as well as iOS, Android, Linux, Microsoft, and macOS devices.

Do I need DRM for my streaming platform?

If you want to protect copyrights, prevent unauthorized use, and avoid legal issues, a DRM system is the proactive choice. It helps protect revenue streams and intellectual property, restrict unauthorized access, prevent password sharing, and stop content piracy.

OTT Apps, Security & DRM

What does system monitoring involve for a streaming service?

It means continuous scanning and testing of the streaming solution, including security scans and checks such as SSH public-key authentication for video storage. Security managers should also manually review system integrity and access on an ongoing basis.
