Possible Doing
While Netflix uses Amazon S3 for Video Streaming, they tend to use encrypted video files and stream it as it is. How we can encrypt video files so it is secured against video piracy and others.
What I want to achieve
Most of the content is stored in a compressed and encrypted format and streamed as is. They are compressed using a lossy audio/video codec such as MPEG or H. 264. The compressed data is encrypted using a Digital Rights Management system.
How myself can encrypt the video files and stream it with iframe for websites?
There are many possible ways that a person can stream videos and secure.
Origin blocking (Origin, CORS, Referrer)
Embed busting
Tokenized URLs
Generic token
Advanced user specific tokens
Login/Paywall
Stream encryption
DRM (Digital Rights Management)
There are Modern Techniques like.
Domain filtering
Referrer filtering
Embed buster
Session token
AES encryption.

Trying to send records to Amazon S3 with Flink: however these records need to be sent with an AES256 SSE header to request server side encryption
see aws documentation:
If you need server-side encryption for all of the objects that are stored in a bucket, use a bucket policy. For example, the following bucket policy denies permissions to upload an object unless the request includes the x-amz-server-side-encryption header to request server-side encryption:
Is this something that can be set for specific file sinks? have not found any documentation on the matter and beginning to think a forwarding lambda will be needed to transform the data.
We have a number of google cloud storage transfer job that sync from aws s3 buckets to google buckets. I am assuming that they are using https to transfer the data but where can I get a confirmation that they do. Where can I get information about minimum TLS version used in these transfer jobs.
Regarding the Cloud Storage TLS, in this document you could find the TLS information for the gsutil commands which requests are done via the JSON API. These requests are via HTTPS only, and are used within the cloud console too.
I am using Wowza Stream Engine and I Enabled Outgoing security with Wowza SecurityToken Version 2.5.9
I am trying to do a client server authentication. I followed following steps as described in
https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-protect-streaming-using-securetoken-in-wowza-streaming-engine
Following are the configuration I set in wowza playback security
And here is my incoming stream
The issue is when I run the resulted url after encoding with SHA256 and converting it to Base 64 as per instructed in the above documentation link. It gives me 403 Access Denied Error. But when I removed my PlayBack security in wowza engine. It streams perfect.
Has anyone experienced same issue using wowza Streaming Engine and GoCoder for source streaming.
if I'm using the AmazonS3Client to put and fetch files, is my connection encrypted? This seems basic, but my googling seems to return things about encrypting the S3 storage and not whether the transmission from this client is secure. If it's not secure is there a setting to make it secure?
Amazon S3 endpoints support both HTTP and HTTPS. It is recommended that you communicate via HTTPS to ensure your data is encrypted in transit.
You can also create a Bucket Policy that enforces communication via HTTPS. See:
Stackoverflow: Force SSL on Amazon S3
Sample policy: s3BucketPolicyEncryptionSSL.json
I'm using SSL in my whole site so I get errors when I pull video streaming content from my azure media services account. All of the urls I get for origin server streaming content when I publish are http. I need them to be https. Is there anyway I can configure the origin service or something I can do before I publish to make the service serve these requests with SSL?
Unfortunately Windows Azure Media Services (WAMS) doesn't support Https.
The formats for streaming, like HLS, are actually transfer formats like Http. HLS doesn't by nature support HTTPS. Instead it has other content protection mechanisms, WAMS uses HLS + 128-bit AES. All of the content transferred in the stream is encrypted by AES.
Depending on your security requirements, you shouldn't need to serve the requests with https. The request that retrieves the origin locator url should be https already, the request that stores it in your database should be https, the request that provides the url to a client should be https, so with the default AES encryption it's entirely secure.
