In the previous chapter, we looked at how we can use MediaDrop to publish our
content. Now, we are going to discuss security, which is another important aspect
of everyday life. You don't just ask the BeagleBone server to provide your content,
but you also ask it to share this content the way you want. Here, you will see how
security roles can ease administration tasks and how MediaDrop provides such a
mechanism in the administrator console. To be as practical as possible, we will go
through two scenarios and analyze them in a concrete manner: home and professional.
The
home
scenario will be a good representation of the use cases that are encountered
in everyday life, whereas the
professional
scenario
will deal with use cases from a
company where employees need to share media and access e-learning videos.
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
• Introducing the security role
• An everyday use case—a house in Springfield
• Second use case—media management in a company
