- What is "SECMPEG" ?
- ===================
-
- SECMPEG is first a newly defined stream, that ensures the service
- of confidentiality and integrity for a MPEG-I-video-stream. 'Cause
- of the amount of multimedia-data it is NOT possible to use the same
- crypto- or checking-techniques for multimedia-data then for normal
- files or streams.
-
- Therefore we defined a new stream, containing additional security
- information. We tested and filtered the MPEG-I-stream to ensure that
- only important and relevant data is encrypted or checked. The newly
- desinged methods are not proofed but quite good tested. We can't be
- sure so far, if these method really do what they are designed for.
-
- It is second a tool, that can insert and delete the confidentiality
- and integrity data into/from a MPEG-I-stream.
-
- If you get any results to proof our methods, we hope to here from you !
-
- There is additional information (PostScript-Format) in English or German
- about the secmpeg-stream definitions and the programming process available
- from the authors.
-
-
- How does it compile ?
- =====================
-
- Well, there is a Makefile. Edit it to your needs, and type 'make'.
- The program already compiles under
-
- - SunOS 4.1.x using cc or gcc
- - SunOS 5.0 using cc or gcc
- - Solaris 2.1 using cc or gcc
- - INTERACTIVE Unix 2.2.1 using cc or gcc
- - Linux using gcc
- - MS-DOS using gcc or Borland C 2.0 (tcc)
-
- You need a compiler, that understands ANSI-C so far, but the rest is
- straight forward C, so it should compile nearly everywhere.
-
-
- What can you do ?
