Media & Entertainment

SafeStream grew out of the need of studios and production houses to secure valuable content. Battle-tested by the likes of Hulu, ITV and BBC Worldwide, SafeStream has been engineered to fit into the most demanding media workflows with ease.

SafeStream fits into your Press Screeners, Digital Dailies, or integrates with your Media Management System for Review and Approval.

Leaks can happen anywhere in the supply chain. Use SafeStream as part of your Review and Approval workflow or in conjunction with your Media Management System. Since SafeStream was built by MediaSilo, media and entertainment’s leading secure video sharing and collaboration platform, there is also a turn-key MAM option that seamlessly integrates with your workflow.

Online Learning

With video-based online learning growing exponentially, content theft is a key concern for any publisher or author. All too often, course content is making its way to torrent sites or being illegally resold on sites like Udemy.

SafeStream provides a cost effective way to watermark content for each subscriber. For pennies per video, subscriber information, such as user ID or email address, can be burned in at intervals during playback, ensuring that each subscriber receives a unique copy -- and preventing thieves from removing your name and introduction from course content.

Avoid finding your content on torrent sites or being illegally sold on content market places. Read about how one author just went through this.
