Abstract
In some implementations, a system is capable of managing keys for encrypting media streams over UDP communications between a media source and an associated server. A key is initially generated for encrypting a media stream captured by a media source device associated with a monitoring system of a property. A first instruction is provided to the media source device and over a secure communication channel. The first instruction causes the media source device to encrypt the media stream using the key when received by the media source device. A second instruction is generated for decrypting the encrypted media stream. The second instruction is provided to a computing device associated with the property. The second instruction causes the computing device to decrypt the encrypted media stream when received by the computing device.
