METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR CRYPTOGRAPHIC ACCESS CONTROL OF VIDEO

摘要

Methods and systems for cryptographic access control of multimedia video, include embedding as metadata access control policy (ACP) information, including authorization rules and cryptographic information tied to an encryption policy, into encrypted video. An authorized receiver device having credentials and/or capabilities matched to the authorization rules is able to extract the ACP information from the encrypted video and use it to decrypt and properly render the video.
