...

6 Disable security on DFSMedia pipeline (optional)

Every time an asset is displayed on a page, a security check is made. For some sites, e.g. public sites, this is not needed. Hence disabling this will increase the performance of serving media.

To disable the security check, locate the pipeline DFSMedia in DFS.Services.config and comment out the processor: <processor type="DFS.Services.Pipelines.DFSMedia.CheckSecurity, DFS.Services" /> 

Info

If you do not disable the security checks, due to them being important, then, as a minimum, the extranet\Anonymous user must be assigned role sitecore\Digizuite DAM for Sitecore Users.
