    Introducing the 'Innovation Showcase' Series: First Up… Configurability for Privacy and Security

    We're excited to launch our new 'Innovation Showcase' series, where we'll spotlight one of the latest advancements from Lytx®. Kicking off this series, we're diving into how our configurability features empower safety and flexibility.

    At Lytx, our mission is clear: To protect our customers' most valuable assets in motion. Their people. Their equipment. Their reputation. In today's world, where safety and efficiency technologies are rapidly adopted, the need for configurable privacy and security is critical. Lytx rises to this challenge, providing organizations the tools to tailor solutions to their unique requirements.

    25+ years of video safety innovation

    Since 1998, Lytx has been a leader in video safety innovations. We’ve developed a deep understanding of the complexities associated with data security and privacy. This expertise allows us to proactively address potential risks effectively, delivering unparalleled protection and peace of mind to our customers.

    Configurable privacy: a key differentiator

    We recognize that every fleet has unique and evolving needs. That’s why we offer a variety of privacy options. This flexibility enables our customers to implement the highest levels of data security and privacy, customized to their unique requirements - now and in the future.

    Q3 Innovation Showcase Fireside Chat:

     

    Our “configurable privacy by design” approach is the demonstration of our sophisticated product design, and our commitment to anticipating and meeting customer needs. This approach includes innovative features such as:

    • Dynamic Adjust for Illinois Restrictions: Precision Through Geofencing
      Our DriveCam® solution offers Dynamic Adjust for Illinois Restrictions, which is a powerful feature that, when enabled, creates a custom geofence around the borders of Illinois that dynamically controls the in-cab Machine Vision + Artificial intelligence (MV+AI). When the vehicle crosses into the Illinois geofence, the in-cab MV+AI functionality along with the visual and audio alerts, events and continual data are disabled. This adaptability provides an additional configuration option for fleets driving in Illinois. This innovation underscores our commitment to delivering products that empower clients to use our products to meet their evolving needs.
    • Conceal Service: Protecting Identities with Blurring Technology
      In an era where every detail matters, the ability to protect sensitive information within video footage is crucial. Lytx's Conceal Service offered in our Surfsight® solution in Europe, employs advanced blurring technology to obscure faces and license plates, automatically. This feature is particularly valuable for organizations operating in regions with rigorous privacy laws or those handling sensitive operations where minimizing access to personal data is key. By concealing personally identifiable information, Lytx helps our customers focus on their operations with the confidence that personal data is protected, aligning with our mission to safeguard what matters most.

    • Risk ID Without Recording: Balancing Safety and Privacy Provide Business Options
      Safety is at the heart of Lytx’s solutions, but so is supporting our customers in addressing driver privacy concerns . Risk ID Without Recording (available on our DriveCam solution) is a feature that embodies this balance, enabling the detection and alerting of risky behaviors without the need for continuous video recording. This feature allows organizations to maintain high safety standards while addressing the privacy concerns of those being monitored. It is another way Lytx helps protect reputations, so our customers can uphold their values while keeping their people and assets secure. Learn more here.

    Why do data security and privacy matter?

    to protect sensitive information…

    Data security at Lytx is more than a technical requirement; it is a fundamental aspect of our business integrity. It demands protective measures for sensitive data—whether personal information or business-critical data—from unauthorized access. At the same time, data privacy emphasizes the responsible and transparent storage, access, and retention of this data.

    to build trust within organizations…

    We believe that trust is earned through transparency and robust security practices. By demonstrating our commitment to data security and privacy, we not only protect our customers' information but also build the confidence that comes from knowing their data is in safe hands.

    to maintain compliance…

    Our solutions enable our customers to maintain compliance with the most stringent regulations. This dedication to compliance is just one more way we make sure our customers can trust us with their most sensitive information.

    to respect the needs of drivers...

    Organizations have unique needs, but drivers’ needs are universal. Their job is exhausting and the environment they work in can be fraught with danger. Above all, they need safety solutions that can be tuned to optimize between the business need for visibility and the driver need for respect.


    What is our commitment to data privacy and security?

    SOC2 Certification

    Security is at the core of our product offerings, including our Surfsight and DriveCam solutions, which are both SOC2 certified. This certification reflects our adherence to stringent standards that govern the security of customer data and is a significant marker of our commitment to maintaining robust security practices.

    We leverage secure technologies

    Our platform’s use of Amazon Web Services (AWS) services provides a secure and compliant environment that enhances our data privacy and security measures. AWS’s advanced encryption, access control, and comprehensive monitoring capabilities reinforces our commitment to excellence in data security.

    We continue to raise our standards

    We are proud to meet the strict data security and privacy standards of some of the world’s largest and most well-known companies. Their rigorous requirements challenge us to continually enhance our security practices, contributing to our position as a leader in data protection within our industry.


    Flexibility is at the center of everything we do at Lytx

    The configurability of Lytx’s privacy and security features reflects our deep understanding that no two businesses are alike and that business needs will change over time.

    Every organization has unique needs, and our solutions are designed to be as adaptable as the challenges they face. Whether it is adjusting recording settings based on location, concealing sensitive data, or detecting risks without recording, Lytx empowers its customers with the tools to tailor their safety solutions to their specific needs.

    With 25 years of video safety leadership and a customer base of some of the world’s largest fleets, Lytx will always remain committed to continuous innovation that protects our customers’ reputations.
