323 - Would categorizing a video as "Unlisted" within YouTube be adequate access control for HCP branded or unbranded content provided the link to the video were only given to people who were known to possess proper credentials?
-
As a general answer (not specific to any platform such as YouTube), when a link is distributed in a controlled manner limited to HCPs and it is the only way to access the file, then file access control is adequate by definition. I am assuming the link would not be simple for a consumer to guess. Feel free to give me a call to discuss whether this is possible to accomplish on YouTube. The ease of video sharing and posting on websites/blogs may make this challenging on YouTube.
