Datasheet: Security & Compliance AES-256 Encryption By default, the media streams passing through the OpenTok platform are encrypted using AES 128-bit encryption. For enhanced security, the OpenTok platform also supports the AES-256 level of encryption on media streams. When a client is connecting to an OpenTok media server or another client, the cipher to use will be negotiated. If the client supports AES-256 then this will be the cipher negotiated for the media traffic. If the client does not support it, then AES-128 will be used. In the case of Relayed sessions, both clients must support AES-256, otherwise they will fall back to AES-128.

It’s a movement.” -Tsahi Levent-Levi 3 Abstract WebRTC is a project that was released by Google in 2011 to allow browser- to-browser communication. It includes voice, video and data without the use of plugins. The mission of WebRTC according to Google is to enable rich, high quality, RTC applications to be developed for the browser, mobile platforms, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and allow them all to communicate via a common set of protocols. In this thesis we employ the capabilities of the WebRTC APIs to implement a platform for synchronous online collaboration, screen casting and simultaneous multimedia communication by utilizing the WebRTC data and media streams. Collaborative software is defined as “a software that supports intentional group processes”. Collaborative solutions include a wide range of tools. On the Web these tools can be part of what is known as a “Client-Portal” and can include discussions, white boards, media and file exchanging etc.

  • Measurement of Video Conferencing Libraries Using a Test Framework Based on Profiling
    Computer Engineering 2013 Mekelweg 4, 2628 CD Delft The Netherlands http://ce.et.tudelft.nl/ MSc THESIS Measurement of Video Conferencing Libraries using a Test Framework based on Profiling Maulik Prabhudesai Abstract Video Conferencing systems have become highly popular with the explosion of bandwidth and computing power. This has made high quality video conference possible on embedded hand held devices. This has created an ecosystem of companies developing applications which are powered by video conferencing libraries and a parallel ecosystem of companies who make those video conferencing libraries. An application developer has to design his system in a way that the video conferencing library (which is the backbone of the applica- tion) is efficiently integrated and is performing optimally. In order to do that, the developer must be acutely aware of features such CE-MS-2013-18 as platform compatibility, resource usage, performance boundaries and bottlenecks of the library in order to make an informed deci- sion. Hence the developer needs a test-bench which can evaluate the above mentioned features. This thesis mainly discusses the need to arrive at one such test framework followed by the framework itself. The framework designed in this thesis consists of a network emulator which is combined with a popular network protocol analyser. It pro- files the library and monitors variables essential to Quality of Service (QoS) like bandwidth usage, frame rates, frame/packet sizes and au- dio/video delay under varying network conditions. By observing the change in these variables, the QoS offered by the library can be determined. This information can also be extrapolated to understand the challenges in guaranteeing a minimum quality of experience (QoE).

Presidente: Vocal: Vocal: Vocal: Secretario: Suplente: Suplente: Realizado el acto de defensa y lectura de la Tesis el día 6 de mayo de 2013 en Madrid, habiendo obtenido la calificación de El presidente, El secretario, Los vocales, ABSTRACT Multi-user videoconferencing systems offer communication between more than two users, who are able to interact through their webcams, microphones and other components. The use of these systems has been increased recently due to, on the one hand, improvements in Internet access, networks of companies, universities and houses, whose available bandwidth has been increased whilst the delay in sending and receiving packets has decreased. On the other hand, the advent of Rich Internet Applications (RIA) means that a large part of web application logic and control has started to be implemented on the web browsers. This has allowed developers to create web applications with a level of complexity comparable to traditional desktop applications, running on top of the Operating Systems. More recently the use of Cloud Computing systems has improved application scalability and involves a reduction in the price of backend systems.
