Protecting Your Assets


Video Protection

You've spent time developing your video and/or audio, and you want to deliver samples or entire pieces, but you don't want people sharing or selling it - you want people to actually come to your site for these goods (or you want to protect your copyrighted material). Most delivery methods are ridiculously easy to circumnavigate.

Shadowfire Web Development uses an algorithm that kills cache scraping and hides the material you want to deliver - material you want to deliver but not give away. The movie on this page is a video scraped from YouTube and re-encoded with a watermark, play/pause controls, and protected from nearly every form of copying, short of holding a cam-corder in front of your monitor.

Limited Downloads

A perfect solution for online vendors!

Suppose you have a business and you sell digital coplies of your media. You want people to be able to download the file you sold them, but you don't want that person to share the URL with the world. While you cannot stop someone from emailing the file, you can limit access to the file on your server.

Shadowfire Web Development uses an algorithm to obfuscate the true URL of the asset, and create a temporary URL that works for a limited number of downloads. Once a user - whether the original purchaser or anyone else - downloads the file the set number of times you dictate, that URL is no longer valid. This process is wholly automatic, save for generating a key at the time of sale and giving that key to your customer.
