cannot prevent people from sharing credentials or hijacking and rebroadcasting the streams. This drives the content provider’s bandwidth costs through the roof and turns an otherwise profitable show into a financial disaster. StreamGuard’s technology prevents credential sharing, stream hacking and middle-man attacks. Our tech guarantees an artist or producer that each “view” is paid for and that they are only billed for bandwidth that is generated from those paying customers. Further, preventing pirates from enacting middle-man attacks and stream hacking protects the servers from crashing & overloading.
