A couple of points to consider when you want to keep your videos more secure.
1. If your account is currently not configured for FMS delivery (i.e. all your videos are delivered via HTTP), you may want to consider requesting our customer support team to switch you to FMS. Brightcove's FMS integration with the Limelight CDN provides some extra content protection schemes than vanilla HTTP. A TTL (time to lived token) is attached to each URL which helps prevent deep linking. With HTTP delivery one can easily download the file if they know the URL.
2. You should configure your players so Domain Restriction is turned on and the player's publishing code can't be placed on other websites. You can configure your player so it will only load on your domain.
"Restrict to your web domain: Enter a complete URL (such as http://example.com) to restrict your player's availability to this particular domain. Leave out the "www" in the URL for more flexible restriction. Be sure to include either http:// or https://. "
3. You can also disable viral sharing for your important videos, or remove the "get code" function from your player completely. Then one can't republish the video on another website.
You can learn more about these settings in this Help Center document.

After you've got this covered your can simply place the relevant players behind your own authentication system, requiring special user authorization to access the players!
I hope this helps! If you have more questions during this project don't hesitate to post back!
