Systems and methods for verifying the rendering of video content on information resources are provided herein. A server can transmit a video content element having a first bit stream corresponding to a predesignated frame to a client device. The client device can identify the first bit stream as corresponding to the predesignated frame. The client device can decode the first bit stream corresponding to the predesignated frame of the video content element to generate a second bit stream. The client device can transmit, to the server, a tracking message including the second bit stream. The server can compare the second bit stream included in the tracking message from the client device with a third bit stream maintained at a database. The server can determine that the video content element is rendered at the client device responsive to the second bit stream matching the third bit stream.

A processor may manage media modification within a participant network. A processor may generate the participant network having a participant. The participant may be associated with one or more media data. A processor may enforce one or more rules on the participant network using an artificial intelligence (AI) based governance system. The one or more rules may manage the modification of the one or more media data by the participant. A processor may restrict the participant from modifying the one or more media data based, at least in part, on the AI based governance system.

Methods, computer-readable media, and devices for tracking an accessing of a media content via a watermark embedded by a network node are disclosed. For example, a processing system including at least one processor may receive, from a first network node, a first copy of a watermark that is embedded by the first network node in a media content. The processing system may further receive a notification comprising a second copy of the watermark and an identification of a first endpoint device, the notification associated with an accessing of the media content by the first endpoint device, and record the accessing of the media content by the first endpoint device.

Systems and methods for performing adaptive bitrate streaming using alternative streams of protected content in accordance with embodiments of the invention are described. One embodiment of the invention includes a processor, and memory containing a client application. In addition, the client application configures the processor to: request a top level index file identifying a plurality of alternative streams of protected content, where each of the alternative streams of protected content are encrypted using common cryptographic information; obtain the common cryptographic information; request portions of content from at least the plurality of alternative streams of protected content; access the protected content using the common cryptographic information; and playback the content.

A method for verifying a digital signature in a video data segment generated by a video delivery chain comprises: obtaining the video data segment comprising encoded image frames and a plurality of node device datasets associated with respective labels; wherein one or more node device datasets include respective digital signatures; wherein the one or more node device datasets comprises a first node device dataset which includes a first digital signature generated by a first node device based on a first number of node device datasets that have been last added to the video data segment before the first node device dataset; locating the labels; identifying , using the labels, the first number of node device datasets; and verifying the first digital signature. The application also discloses a method of adding a digital signature to a video data segment.

A number of variations may include providing a computer system for networked video management, the computer system may include at least one computer having non-transitory memory for storing machine instructions that are to be executed by the computer, the machine instructions when executed by the computer implement the following web service proxy protocol: opening at least one first network connection from at least one video gateway device to at least one web service proxy application and opening at least one second network connection from the at least one video gateway device to at least one network camera on a server network; performing a scan for network cameras on the server network via the at least one gateway device and transmitting the results of the scan to the web service proxy application; and establishing at least one tunnel between the at least one network camera and the web service proxy application.

A method of processing a video transport stream includes receiving a video transport stream and identifying at least one portion of the video transport stream that is not to undergo modification when processed by a rate shaping device. An indicator is inserted into the video transport stream. The indicator is used to signal the statistical multiplexer that the at least one portion of the video transport stream is not to be modified when the video transport stream is processed by the rate shaping device.

Systems and methods for implementing a Transport I/O system are described. Network encrypted content may be received by a device. The device may provide the network encrypted content to a secure processor, such as, for example, a smart card. The secure processor obtains a network control word that may be used to decrypt the network encrypted content. The secure processor may decrypt the network encrypted content to produce clear content. In embodiments, the secure processor may then use a local control word to generate locally encrypted content specific to the device. The device may then receive the locally encrypted content from the secure processor and proceed to decrypt the locally encrypted content using a shared local encryption key. The Transport I/O system ensures the protection of the network control word by maintaining the network control word on the secure processor.

An authentication module for a time series of sensor data, is provided that comprises at least one data interface which can be connected to at least one sensor. An authentication interface and an authentication logic are provided which is coupled to the data interface and the authentication interface. The authentication logic is configured to receive at least one data set (21a-24a) via the at least one data interface from at least one sensor, form one or more compressed products (21b-24b) from one or more received data sets, create an authentication which contains the compressed products and respectively contains a reference to the associated data set, or at least a part of the associated data set, and output the authentication via the authentication interface.
