Do you use Amazon S3 service to host your files (pdf, images, videos, audios, podcasts etc etc.)? Do you know that there may be hundreds or thousands of people sharing your Amazon S3 files all over the Internet and thus, stealing away your hard work and costly S3 bandwidth?
In order to make a file accessible over the internet, we have to set the permissions as READ for EVERYONE. And this is a major security loophole. Now anyone who knows this URL can access this file.
Let’s suppose you run a private membership site and someone submit your file(s) link to all over the Internet? Or let’s suppose that you post videos on your blog and someone distributes the links of all your videos (hosted on S3) in forums or discussion boards.
With S3Vault, now you can SECURE all your S3 files instantly.
