Problem about the absence of encryption methods/standards for 3D objects

[Francesco Roberto Dani (FRD93)]

Hello everybody,

Our research group at university is trying to define a project about securing 3D assets for 3D web platforms (mainly, .OBJ files). To motivate our proposal, we need to find out some either formal or informal bibliography/sitography that states the current problem about the absence of encryption methods/standards. Does anybody of you have some links to documents or web pages? I found only academic papers that try to solve the problem, but nothing about “the problem” itself.

Thanks in advance. Best,

FD

You can convert the file to some internal representation and then work with this representation. I did things like that. Loads many times faster and the source file is not available. Although full-fledged encryption on the webgl is impossible.

You will always end up creating unencrypted buffers with vertex data and textures to be used by GPU no matter how you encrypt source data.
