How to protect video from downloading
Video is stored on the platform and played through a protected player, and access can be restricted by domain, IP address, password, link lifetime and viewer sessions.
It is impossible to rule out every way of copying: a viewer can always try to record the screen. That is why effective protection is layered — encryption against downloading, watermarks against screen recording, session control, expiring links and password-restricted access.
How it works
01
Video Download Protection
To prevent video courses and lessons from downloading, we encrypt the data before delivering to the viewer. As a result, download tools and plugins either do not see the file or download an encrypted version. Playback is possible only with our player, as you need a unique key created for the viewer. This key is transferred automatically.
We use AES-128 and Sample-AES technologies to protect your videos.
02
Screen record protection
We understand that nothing can safeguard your content from screen recording tools like mobile or video camera. But we know, that displaying the user’s information like email, name and IP over the video deters from further distributing over the internet. Dynamic or static watermark will appear at random spots of player every 1-60 seconds. It is semi-transparent and does not disturb the viewer.
If an online thieve tries to delete watermark, the player will reload.
03
Domain name restrictions
Videos will play only on whitelisted domains. We check every player request. If content pirate copies the player code, he will be unable to play this video due to «Access denied» error. Restrictions also work with streams and webinars.
04
Password protection
We create password for each viewer with the following parameters: start of access, access period, end of access, number of password activations, restriction of simultaneous viewing from multiple devices. Upon the first launch of the player, the service will remember the viewer's parameters and will automatically compare them with the data in the database. If the data differs, then re-entering the password for activation will be required. This way, you limit the possibility of transferring the password to third parties.
05
Controlling viewer sessions
The platform records any player launch for every unique viewer. We fix time, device, browser and IP address and display it in your personal account. You can set up notifications, then we will indicate about the viewers who used password activations. There is also an option that blocks simultaneous viewing of the media with one password from different devices. Also, you can restrict access to media from certain devices or browsers.
06
Protection by IP address
To enable it, you should generate a md5 hash and provide it to us. The result will be a unique video link for a viewer. It will play only from the specified IP address.
07
Geo-Blocking
We use CDN for your content to be available in any destination. And you can manage your media to play or not in specific countries.
08
Temporary links
To enable it, you should generate a md5 hash and provide it to us. The links created this way will be active for the period specified in the settings. Upon expire, the viewer will no longer be able to watch the content.
Reviews
We switched to Boomstream to improve the quality of lesson recordings and save on the development and maintenance of our own solution. Overall, the quality of the services provided is satisfactory and meets our needs. We use the video content storage service, its streaming on our platform, and the video player for these streams.

After YouTube demonetization, we started looking for alternative platforms to earn from published materials. Among many platforms we analyzed, Boomstream turned out to be the most suitable. The service offers Full HD quality, a user-friendly interface, affordable file storage, detailed sales analytics, technical support, and a download-blocking feature. Access to live streams can be restricted by an individual or group password, which can be obtained after payment through the built-in payment system. Selling videos with this platform is very convenient. We highly recommend it.

Our plugin helps creators using Tilda to bring any design or effects to life. Boomstream became a great tool for publishing videos on clients' websites through the video constructor and Zero block. All you need to do is upload the video and get an mp4 link without any technical hassle.

You need to protectyour content if you are
An online school
If you sell recorded training or run courses with restricted access, video lessons become one of the main assets of the business. Without protection, students can pass links around, download materials or share recordings publicly.
Video protection helps you limit access to paying users only, prevent lessons from spreading at scale and reduce the risk of a course leaking to third-party sites, Telegram channels and file-sharing services.
A course author
or expert
If you create training videos, lectures, masterclasses or private materials yourself, it matters to protect not only the file but your intellectual property.
Protected video hosting lets you publish video for viewing only, limit access by time, add watermarks carrying viewer data and see who was given access to the materials.
Corporate training
When a company trains employees, partners or dealers, the video materials often contain internal policies, instructions, commercial information or proprietary methods.
Video protection helps keep training clips available only inside the company perimeter or to a specific group of users. Viewing can be limited by IP address, domain, password, link lifetime or number of sessions.
An LMS platform
If you run an LMS or an educational platform, users expect convenient video playback while course owners expect solid protection against downloading and redistribution.
Integrating a protected video player lets you manage access and use encryption, watermarks, expiring links and control of simultaneous views. That makes the platform more valuable to schools and course authors.
A site owner on Tilda, WordPress, Joomla or another CMS
If you publish valuable video on your site, do not use an MP4 file. A user can obtain a direct link to the file, download it or pass it on.
A protected video player lets you embed video into a page without serving the source file directly. On top of that you can allow playback on your domain only and enable watermarks, temporary access and download protection.
A developer of client portals and private platforms
For your convenience we built an extensive section with documentation, a sandbox and integration examples.
Through the API and the protected player you can embed video into the product interface, grant access to specific users, create expiring links, limit the number of sessions and enable personalized watermarks. That protects the content without complicating the user experience.
