URL Signing
Discover how URL signing enhances content security by providing temporary, secure access through seamlessly integrated signed URLs.
What is URL Signing?
URL signing is a security enhancement that restricts access to private content such as images, videos, or audio files. Instead of making content publicly accessible, signed URLs allow temporary, secure access by appending a signature to the URL. This ensures that only authorized users can view or download the content during a specified time window.
Benefits of URL Signing
Enhanced Security: Protect sensitive content from unauthorized access.
Temporary Access: Define how long the URL remains valid, limiting exposure.
Flexible Integration: Supports multiple cloud storage providers, including AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage, and Azure Blob Storage.
Transparent Process: Lasso seamlessly handles the signing process for your content, ensuring that secure URLs are automatically generated when needed.
How URL Signing Works
Detection: When content is sent to Lasso, the platform checks if it originates from a domain requiring signatures.
Signing: If signing is required, Lasso generates a signed URL using the credentials provided in your integration settings.
Usage: The signed URL is used to analyze the content and display it securely in the dashboard.
Regeneration: Signed URLs are not stored and are regenerated upon expiration, ensuring ongoing security.
