There are a couple of different approaches you could explore.
A number of organisations provide DRM extensions for joomla - these are designed to allow you protect your video content and are presumably well integrated with Joomla (I have not used them myself). Some may require browser plugins, which is a disadvantage as users often are reluctant to download and install new plugins:
- http://extensions.joomla.org/browse/new/extension/multimedia/multimedia-players/vdocipher-protect-video
- http://www.drm-x.com/DRM_Joomla_Plugin.aspx
Alternatively, you can host your videos on a service that provides DRM protection and integrate this into your site. One example which does integrate with Joomla and which should avoid plugins as much as possible is:
- https://support.brightcove.com/en/video-cloud/docs/content-protection-drm & http://support.brightcove.com/en/video-cloud/docs/publishing-video-cloud-players-joomla
You will need to look at costs, any issues with plugins etc to choose which is bets for your application.
