Use cases - Secure Media Delivery at the Edge on AWS

Use cases

Secure Content Delivery

Building and deploying infrastructure or applications at the edge requires comprehensive security with a reliable cloud infrastructure, and securing your rich media or static content requires extra care. With the Secure Media Delivery at the Edge on AWS solution, you can add additional layers of security to prevent unauthorized access and common web exploits. This allows you to spend more time building applications, and less time monitoring threats. Often, it is also a contractual obligation content distributors need to adhere to with respect to security and access control methods. This solution can be used in combination with digital rights management (DRM) systems or used as a single protection from unauthorized playback.

Streaming Media

As consumer demand for video streaming increases, media and entertainment companies are looking for secure and reliable web-based video streaming alternatives to traditional television. Using this solution, you can avoid inefficient trial-and-error approaches and save on time and costs for your Video on Demand (VOD) and Live streaming media projects. This solution serves customers looking for a robust mechanism with widespread support across variety of clients, as well as more flexibility in adjusting the working parameters (for example, fine-grained geo restrictions, custom headers, source IPs) and logic of securing their video streams.
