Anti-download technology to protect your center’s course materials

With the explosion of the internet and how easy it is to share data, anti-download technology for documents from MONA is an ideal security solution. It protects the interests of education centers against copyright abuse and intellectual property violations. Let's look at the details in this article.

How centers lose their documents and information today

Education centers use many kinds of documents today, such as video, PDF and images,… But these formats cannot block downloads, and even when a provider's anti-download service is used, it still is not airtight because:

• Someone can read a PDF and retype the text
• Images can be photographed or scanned
• A phone can be used to record the video

So putting several measures in place to stop ordinary video downloads only slows others down from getting the documents. It does not fully solve the problem.

So online teaching software What anti-download method does MONA's software use to solve this?

MONA's anti-download technology for documents

PDFs and images are hard to protect completely against downloads. Video, however, is something MONA can handle easily. Specifically, MONA's software has 2 anti-download solutions:

• Watermarks on video
• Streaming integrated into the download flow

Using watermarks on video in anti-download technology

With MONA's video anti-download service, we place a watermark on every video. Each video shows the learner's name (for student videos) or the employee ID (for internal training videos). So if a video leaks, the center can tell exactly who leaked it.

Streaming the student ID into the video stream

If a center's video already has the student ID streamed into it, and a technically skilled person downloads the video, the downloaded copy will still show the student's stream ID. The center can then easily identify who leaked the material.

If the center does not use the video anti-download service, content is uploaded directly to the software, and students must wait for the whole video to download before they can watch it.

Video download streaming means downloading a video from the internet through streams. It lets users access and use the material while it is still downloading, instead of waiting for the download to finish. This saves time and improves the learner's experience when fetching material from the internet.

To picture video streaming more easily, take YouTube as an example. Videos on YouTube are delivered in streams, so you can watch a stretch of video even when your internet connection is weak.

Above is the 2 anti-download technology solutions that MONA applies to its management software. A center's documents matter a great deal, because they are its expertise and its brand's copyright. So avoid leaks by using the technologies MONA describes above.
