Embed in HTML videos securely

Hi,
I'd like to check in and see how can videos be more securely embeded in an HTML. Here's what I mean with "securely".
1. All videos have a public facing URL, I know this cannot be hidden from the HTML but there may be options either obfuscate or restrict.
2. Can restrictions for IPs be added via code when you upload videos using the API?
3. I have seen other platforms use what's called a "sssion token" that is sent as part of the URL in order to play the video. If the session is lost/expires after some time the link no longer works nor the session token so even if you have the player URL you will not be able to reproduce it until you regenerate a session (reload page where the video is embeded for example)
4. Restrict videos to certain URLs for embeding and not being able to see the standalone player in a direct link. This will have an impact if I try to embed videos in my company's Mobile App (can a "domain" whitelist be added for playing/embedding in an iOS/Android App?).

I am just thinking options out loud here, I'd like to also hear what other options kaltura has for restricting playback. Also important to know if options are available at the player level or at a more general KMC level, it wold be very good to fine tune different players for different playback and security-level scenarios.
