Security Considerations for Inserted Videos

If you see the warning below when you attempt to insert a video into an HTML document, it is because you are logged in to PolicyTech using the HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) protocol, and you referenced a video using the normal HTTP, which is not a secure protocol.

Do one of the following:

(Recommended) Click No to cancel the video insertion, change the URL scheme name to https://, and then click OK again to see if the web server hosting the video supports the HTTPS protocol.

If you fully understand the possible security risks but want to proceed anyway, click Yes. What you see next depends on the browser you're using. Consult your browser's Help for further instructions.

Important:

Consult with your IT specialist before using this option.
We highly recommend that you not use this option. In addition to the security issue, the assignee's experience will be undesirable at best. When an assignee attempts to view the video, he or she will have to create an exception for accessing insecure material from within an application running on a secure server. The method for creating this exception varies widely, depending on the type and version of the assignee's browser.
