nginx - How to prevent hotlinking of streaming content? -


I have a directory with my media files and I do not have to show them on other sites. The server does not support .htaccess, because it uses nginx.

How do I enable hotline protection for my files ?? Thank you.

The HTTP request will be the easiest way for the header. Actually if this header does not have a URL from your site, then this can be hot linking.

The following issues are:

  • Referrer header can be forged -> Hot linking
  • Not all user agents necessarily send referrer headers - > The legitimate user probably can not get the content

You can browse user cookies, and check the existence of the cookie when the user is reaching streaming content.
