How is the key distribution secure? I know we can see a shared key on one of the configuraiton window of VIC in case video streams are encrypted. The key has to be transmitted from the venue server to an AG client and the AG client to VIC and RAT. I suppose in both cases the key is encrypted because it is transmitted over a https connection. Is this correct? Kazuyuki Shudo Grid Technology Research Center National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST)
