Viking Media Announces Secure Web Casting
System
Viking Media introduces the new WebStreamer S-1 turnkey
web streaming system, a security-enhanced version of the
feature-packed product line that allows users to broadcast media
rich events live over the Internet
San Jose CA, July 10th, 2002 – Viking Media
(www.vikingmedia.com), a provider of web casting hardware and
streaming media software tools, is announcing the WebStreamer S-1, a
security enhanced version of its WebStreamer series of turnkey
systems.
The WebStreamer product line features multi-format
encoding hardware, presentation software and web hosting services
packaged into a true turnkey solution. WebStreamer allows the user
to web cast live or on-demand multimedia events to a global audience
via the Internet. The product is targeted towards corporate needs
including marketing, training and financial
communications.
The WebStreamer S-1 has a number of
improvements that increase security from intrusion, unauthorized
viewing and power failure. The addition of a firewall allows for a
secure networking environment, rejecting unwanted requests from
possible attackers. The firewall protects the encoders and local
web/media servers and works transparently with most Content Delivery
Network providers.
An Uninterruptible Power Supply module has
been added to the WebStreamer S-1. The UPS protects the hardware
from power spikes and fluctuations that can be detrimental to
computer equipment. In addition to supplying continuous power during
a temporary outage, it allows the user to save all data and settings
and safely shut down the system.
WebStreamer S-1 ships with
Webocaster Enterprise authoring software from Eonware
(www.webocaster.com). The Enterprise Edition features security
enhancements with Challenge/Response technology and individual
viewer logging, allowing only authorized viewers participate in the
web cast.
This web based authoring tool allows the user to
set up and manage live and on-demand multimedia presentations from
anywhere. The software, which comes with a broad selection of
layouts, allows for branding and customization without the need for
programming. Built-in Photoshop templates offers the producer
maximum freedom of design without the hassle of HTML
coding.
