MPAA partners, particular those tasked with handling digital data, are bound by security guidelines that bans certain types of clothing, calls for random searches and include detailed background checks into all employees and contractors.
Amazon, one of the partners, has published a web page detailing the MPAA's comprehensive security best practices guidelines, and it reveals how security obsessed the MPAA is when it comes to protecting their digital data.
The guidelines, most of which Amazon have implemented, include detailed background checks on all employees and third party contractors. It also forces employees to sign annual non-disclosure agreements.
Naturally, digital recording devices are banned from entering Amazon premises, and there are intrusive guidelines to ensure these devices are not sneaked in or out of the premises. These include random personal searches, pat downs, emptying of pockets and scanning with metal detectors, all in an effort to stop content thieves and leakers. Even food containers bought into the facility must be transparent, as to allow security guards to visually inspect them for suspected devices.
Even the worker's dress code is closely scrutinized by the MPAA, with a complete ban on baggy clothing, or clothing that can otherwise be used to conceal content carrying devices.
The security guards in charge of handling these procedures themselves are also subject to "active" monitoring.
And it goes without saying that employees with computer and Internet access are subject to further restrictions, which include comprehensive logging of all activities.
But despite these precautions, pre-release content from MPAA studios do still get leaked with great frequency, including almost all Oscar nominated moviesback at the start of the year.

Pirates have apparently broken the copy protection employed to protect Netflix 4K streams, and have uploaded a copy of the 2160p stream in torrent form.
The first episode of hit TV series Breaking Bad, in 4K resolution, has been uploaded to private trackers by the piracy group iON. Coming in at a massive 17GB, comments for the file indicate it was ripped from Netflix's UHD stream via HDMI using a "lossless capture card".
This signals the first time Netflix's UHD stream has been ripped, which up until this point has been effectively protected by a series of copy protection mechanisms. Primarily, these streams are protected by from HDMI ripping by HDCP 2.2, which before this release was not known to be broken. The streams also features identifying watermarks which supposedly allows rights-holders to locate the user whose Netflix account was used to rip the stream (it is unknown whether pirates have successfully removed the watermarking information).
Thanks to these copy protection mechanism, commercial 4K content still isn't particularly prevalent on torrent networks. If piracy groups have indeed found a way to capture 4K streams via HDMI, then this could mean bad news for rights-holders, particularly with 4K movies being released on Ultra HD Blu-ray discs later this year.
Torrent news website TorrentFreak contacted Netflix and asked if the company was aware of the leak.
"Piracy is a global problem. We, like others content providers, are actively working on ways to protect content featured on our site," a Netflix spokesperson told TF.

The latest rumors suggests Microsoft may soon announce a brand new version of the Xbox One that comes without a Blu-ray drive.
The all digital video game console will only be able to play digitally downloaded games, but without a Blu-ray drive that currently occupies as much as a third of the space in the existing Xbox One console, the new console, dubbed the Xbox One Mini, will be much smaller in size.
The removal of the Blu-ray drive, along with successful efforts by AMD to shrink the console's APU from 28nm to a cheaper and more power efficient 20nm process, will also make the Xbox One Mini much cheaper, yet still capable of playing all Xbox One games.
The new console, if the rumors prove to be true, will also retain Xbox 360 backwards compatibility for digital games.
According to the rumor, the new Xbox One, along with new Surface Pro and Lumia devices, will be unveiled at a Microsoft hardware event in October.
