title: fileupload control in C# for videos
body: <p>I am designing a website that will upload video files in ASP.NET. The question I have is: video files can get very huge (i.e. 3GB) and I read that increasing the <code>maxRequestLength</code> in the webconfig file will give the chance for hackers to attack the server with large requests. </p>
  
  <p>I already know about client validation to protect from malicious files that are not the intended files, so that's not a concern at the moment. My question is if the file-upload method is the right approach to upload video files? If not, is there a better approach?</p>
