Technology for a user interface that supports an access control mechanism for network sharing. An example method involves providing a user interface comprising media items and media availability indicators, wherein a media availability indicator indicates one or more states of a media item; updating the media availability indicator to represent that an encrypted version of the media item and a wrapped key have been received over a connection, wherein the wrapped key was encrypted using a public key of a server; enabling the user interface to initiate the transmission of the wrapped key to the server, wherein the wrapped key comprises a cryptographic key for the encrypted version of the media item; receiving the cryptographic key that is unwrapped by the server using a private key of the server; and updating the media availability indicator of the user interface to represent the media item is available to be experienced.

User interface for access control enabled network sharing

An edge server receives a request from a client network application for a web page hosted at an origin server. The edge server transmits the requested web page in a response. The edge server accesses an edge server request log to retrieve a log entry associated with the request for the web page, where the log entry associated with the request for the web page includes information regarding the request and the response. The edge server retrieves one or more characteristics of an asset of the web page, where each characteristics has an expected value. The edge server determines whether the origin server is compromised when a value for a characteristic is not within a threshold range of the expected value for the characteristic of the asset and performs a mitigation action in response.

Determining an origin server is potentially compromised

Implementations disclose an access control mechanism for peer-to-peer sharing technology. A method includes receiving, by a processing device of a first user device, an encrypted media item and a wrapped key from a second user device, wherein the wrapped key comprises content masked from the first user device; transmitting, by the first user device, the wrapped key and a request to a media server to determine whether the first user device is authorized to play the encrypted media item; receiving, from the media server, a response indicating the first user device is authorized to play the encrypted media item, the response comprising a cryptographic key derived from the wrapped key; and decrypting the encrypted media item using the cryptographic key.

Access control technology for peer-to-peer sharing

Implementations disclose a user interface that supports an access control mechanism for peer-to-peer sharing technology. An example method includes providing for display a user interface comprising a plurality of media items and a plurality of media availability indicators, wherein a portion of the user interface represents that an encrypted version of a media item of the plurality of media items and an encryption key for the encrypted version are being received over a peer-to-peer connection; updating a media availability indicator of the media availability indicators to represent that the encrypted version of the media item and the encryption key are saved; receiving an indication that the encrypted version of the media item is decrypted; and updating the media availability indicator to represent the media item is available to be experienced.

User interface for access control enabled peer-to-peer sharing

A first server receives a request for a file from a first client device. The first server determines that the file is not fully available in a cache that is available to the first server and receives at least a portion of the file from a second server. While the file is being received, the first server writes data of the file to a temporary cache file as it is being received; streams the file to the first client device from the temporary cache file; receives a request for the file from a second client device; and streams the file to the second client device from the temporary cache file without waiting for the requested file to be fully received at the first server and without transmitting an additional request for the file to the second server.

Proxy server streaming a resource to multiple requesting client devices while the resource is being received at the proxy server

Implementations disclose an access control mechanism for peer-to-peer sharing technology. A method includes receiving, by a processing device of a first user device, an encrypted media item and a wrapped encryption key from a second user device via a peer-to-peer connection; transmitting, by the first user device, the wrapped encryption key and a request to a media server to determine whether the first user device is authorized to play the encrypted media item; receiving, from the media server, a response indicating the first user device is authorized to play the encrypted media item, the response comprising an encryption key derived from the wrapped encryption key; and decrypting the encrypted media item using the encryption key to play the media item.

A method for facilitating monetization of an embedded video configured for automated playback includes detecting, via an iframe embedded in a user interface of a third party platform, an indication of a user intent to view the video configured for automated playback. The video is hosted by a content sharing platform and embedded in the user interface of the third party platform. The method further includes providing, to a client device, video related data pertaining to the automated playback of the video in the user interface of the third party platform, and upon receiving the video-related data, validating the automated playback of the video in the user interface of the third party platform.

A system and method for enabling, on any website, a unified user login that supports login through multiple known identity providers and, if necessary, the website's legacy login are disclosed. In one example, the system comprises a login receiver module, an identity provider determination module, a legacy account module, a federated account module and a login module. The login receiver module receives a login request associated with a user identifier. The identity provider determination module determines whether the login request is associated with a known identity provider. The legacy account module performs legacy account creation and/or legacy login verification when the address is not associated with any known identity provider. Otherwise, the federated account module performs federated account creation and/or federated login verification. The login module logs the user into the account responsive to one or more of verification and account creation.
