Content Protection REST API documentation

What is Content Protection?

Content Protection spans a range of strategies and technologies that are critical to the security of proprietary content. Individual content owners need various levels of online video protection, and in some instances those protections are a regulatory or contractual requirement for publishers and rights holders. Now more than ever, content protection is critical as users expand their video viewing across a multitude of devices.

Content providers should understand the technologies and capabilities needed to protect their valuable video assets, and they must consider security options that offer geographic, time-based or user-based restrictions. Publishers must focus on giving their users the highest quality video possible while also enforcing their business models. Protecting content is not about keeping people out. Instead, it’s a methodology that can both protect and enable content globally on just about any device.
