00:00:00,210 --> 00:00:01,350
‫Just a short lecture

2
00:00:01,350 --> 00:00:03,570
‫around CloudFront's geo restriction.

3
00:00:03,570 --> 00:00:06,240
‫So you can restrict who can access your distribution

4
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:08,280
‫based on the country where they try

5
00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:10,170
‫to access the distribution from.

6
00:00:10,170 --> 00:00:12,450
‫So you can set up an allow list to define

7
00:00:12,450 --> 00:00:16,920
‫a list of approved countries or you can set up a block list

8
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:19,980
‫to set up a list of banned countries.

9
00:00:19,980 --> 00:00:21,720
‫Now, the country is determined

10
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:23,790
‫by using a third party geo-IP database

11
00:00:23,790 --> 00:00:27,600
‫to match the IP of the user to the country it belongs to.

12
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:29,940
‫So the use case for using geo restriction

13
00:00:29,940 --> 00:00:33,990
‫would be copyright laws to control access to content.

14
00:00:33,990 --> 00:00:36,870
‫So if we have a look in the geographic restriction

15
00:00:36,870 --> 00:00:39,000
‫in CloudFront, you can edit them

16
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,700
‫and you can set up an allow list or a block list,

17
00:00:41,700 --> 00:00:46,410
‫and then say for example that only people from United States

18
00:00:46,410 --> 00:00:50,970
‫and then India are allowed in my distribution,

19
00:00:50,970 --> 00:00:53,790
‫and else not, and then you save the changes.

20
00:00:53,790 --> 00:00:55,020
‫So that's it for this lecture.

21
00:00:55,020 --> 00:00:57,970
‫I hope you liked it and I will see you in the next lecture.
