Ask HN: How to store and stream private video content

5 points by grep 16y ago

Hi, What is the best way to create an online video-on-demand service with this requirements: - Private and secure - Analytics - CDN - Flash - Low price What's the best solution(s) for this? I was thinking of using S3 + CloudFront but it doesn't provide any security against malicious users.

Can you explain why you say "it doesn't provide any security against malicious users"?

You may want to read: http://aws.amazon.com/s3/faqs/#How_secure_is_my_data http://aws.amazon.com/s3/faqs/#How_secure_is_my_data The easiest method for security via S3 would be the query string method, which lives for a defined period of time.
