Secure live stream

Hi,

I’m preparing a live stream. Access to live stream will be possible only by logging in after making a payment.

I’d like to protect the streaming so that the person who gets the page code (simply see the page’s source), couldn’t copy and download the code with the server’s IP and the name of the stream. So I have some questions:

  • Is it possible that Wowza only allow to view/play livestream on a specific domain i.e. example.com? (so if someone copy the code on another page, he can’t watch the stream)

  • I tried to use token, but I don’t know how to secure it in the page code. In flash technology secret code can’t be seen, but in HTML5 everyone can read it and use on another page.

Is tehere any way to protect live stream?

Thank you

Sebastian
