Does SIP work with adaptive bitrate pipelines?

Stream Identity Protocol (SIP) for verifiable media trust

Define identity, rights, authorization, and moderation attestations at the bitstream layer so trust survives delivery path changes.

Container metadata alone often breaks across repackaging and multi-CDN workflows.

Moderation and rights decisions are frequently detached from cryptographic provenance.

Teams lack a shared verification language between legal, trust, and platform engineering.

Unverifiable source claims in high-risk distribution paths.

Rights disputes without deterministic evidence history.

Inconsistent enforcement across players and partner channels.

A transport-resilient identity and attestation foundation.

Independent authority lanes for identity, ratings, and rights.

Reliable trust signals for downstream policy engines.

Use deterministic, signed SIP frame structures that can be parsed and verified consistently.

Apply bitstream, perceptual, and structural content binding for stronger tamper detection.

Require distinct attestations for publisher identity, ratings, rights, and viewer authorization.

Works across HLS, DASH, WebRTC, RTP, and progressive flows.

Deterministic CBOR encoding with Ed25519 signatures and replay-resistant frame sequencing.

Supports full-frame, delta, and heartbeat verification for real-time operations.

SIP defines explicit threat models for impersonation, rights forgery, and downgrade attacks.

Protocol design separates open SIP Core from operational SIP Platform implementations.

No. SIP complements DRM by adding verifiable identity, rights, and authorization context.

Yes. Teams can start with SIP Core verification and phase in platform workflows later.

Yes. SIP frame design and binding model are built for ABR and repackaging scenarios.
