Description: Varnish Module (VMOD) to support use of the SecureHD Policy service provided by Akamai Media Services
.
Applications of the VMOD include:
Defining policies for access to media content:
Policy type TOKEN: token authorization required, with a TTL (time-to-live) limiting the duration of authorized access, and possibly with a shared secret used for keyed-hash message authentication codes (HMACs) that are required for authorization
Policy type OPEN: access permitted without authorization
Policy type DENY: access denied
Assigning policies to hosts, either globally for a host, or for sets of paths defined for the host
Determining which policy holds for a given host and path
