Backblaze Chief Product Officer David Ngo on the benefits of Scalable Application Keys for Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage.

Organizations managing feeds from large networks of cameras and devices can leverage Scalable Application Keys to upload data into B2 Cloud Storage with higher security and more easily. The feature allows media and security professionals to generate and refresh up to 10,000 unique data access keys per minute—enabling every camera, drone, IoT device, or endpoint that’s generating content to be provisioned with its own short-lived access keys.

“Scalable Application Keys extend Backblaze’s commitment to workflow security,” said Backblaze Chief Product Officer David Ngo. “Media teams often require interoperable, multi-platform workflows, device management protocols, and compliance requirements for footage retention. Scalable Application Keys allow for a 150x increase in the number of keys that can be generated and refreshed, enabling flexible and secure processes.”

As a result of technology advancement and market demand, organizations are deploying more cameras than ever before and holding on to that footage for longer, and with security threats and compliance requirements on the rise, there is a large focus on protecting original data. Early adopters of Backblaze B2 leveraging Scalable Application Keys include video surveillance platforms managing tens of thousands of cameras and privacy-focused photo and video applications.
