It's a video presentation that is going to be shown to several people. We aren't concerned about these people stealing the content, but we want to take precautions.
The plan so far.
- Implement undetectable digital (audio and video) watermarks in the content in order to identify the person that leaked said content if the situation arises in the future.
- Find a way to host the information on the internet making it as difficult as humanly possible to download the content.
Obviously, I know it's quite easy to rip content out of a website, including video. However, I know there are methods which make the process a lot more difficult to achieve.
The head of the project wants to use a CD or flash drive to give to these people complimenting a written presentation. But I raised the issue of copying the content. I can't exactly write and read protect the drive because watching the content on a computer is fundamentally copying it, even if only to temporary memory.
All the solutions I come up with end up seeming like a false sense of security. Ideally we wouldn't give them the content at all. But we think it's important that they have it. While we trust them, I personally know how the likes of a pen drive can get around town which is why hosting it on the internet with a dedicated link is probably a better idea. But the internet makes sharing the content easier again.
Does anyone know something that I don't or haven't considered?
Cheers!
