Streaming media service user authentication method based on rtmp protocol

Abstract

The invention discloses a streaming media service user authentication method based on the RTMP protocol. Before providing video services, a video server first verifies the legitimacy of the user's identity through the authentication server, and then verifies the user's access authority. Only those with sufficient access authority Users provide video services and reject illegal or insufficient user requests; finally, encrypt and transmit video stream data to prevent users from obtaining video content through downloading and disseminating it. Through the above methods, it can ensure that streaming media resources can only be used by legal user groups, reject illegal video requests, ensure that video resources are used reasonably, and reduce the processing pressure of video servers. The invention can realize the reliability and confidentiality of streaming media on-demand and live broadcast certification, can significantly improve the security of network streaming media management, and has very important practical significance for the development of network streaming media security technology.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of streaming media services, and in particular relates to a streaming media service based on the RTMP protocol, including user authentication methods for online live broadcast and online on-demand broadcast. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of Internet technology, more and more services appear on the Internet, and online video service is one of them. The RTMP protocol is a transmission protocol specially designed for online video. It has very good real-time performance and has been widely used in online video-on-demand or live broadcast. Since the RTMP protocol itself does not have a link for security authentication of user identities, by default, the video server will accept connection requests from any party without distinction and provide video services. In the field of confidential or commercial media, only relying on the service of the standard RTMP protocol has...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] 1. Commercial video resources are only available for registered users to browse. If a registered user discloses the URL address information used to request video resources, then unregistered user groups can browse the corresponding video resources normally, which is not conducive to copyright protection.

[0004] 2. Due to the openness of the RTMP protocol, competitors can design customized video request clients, and can pretend to be legitimate users to request video resources in batches from the server and do further theft, backup, etc., resulting in commercially valuable video resources or important Data is leaked or disseminated, infringing the copyright of the streaming content

[0005] 3. Competitors send a large number of connection requests to the video server through program means. Due to the indiscriminate processing method of the RTMP protocol, the server cannot distinguish between valid and invalid connection requests, which will easily lead to excessive pressure on the server and downtime, which will eventually affect the availability of the entire system.
