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 maxRequestLength in the webconfig file will give the chance for hackers to attack the server with large requests.
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?

The two controls used to upload files to a web server are: HtmlInputFile - an HTML server control. File Upload - an ASP.NET server control.
The HasFile property gets a value indicating whether the FileUpload control contains a file to upload. Use this property to verify that a file to upload exists before performing operations on the file.
The FileUpload. AllowMultiple property in . NET 4.5 and higher will allow you the control to select multiple files.
For upload big file in asp.net,I used "Brettle.Web.NeatUpload"

I hope it is useful for you.
