 Cybersecurity

Automatic updates deliver the latest features, security patches, and AI enhancements, ensuring peak performance and protection without the need for manual intervention. VORTEX secures organizations with encrypted devices, cloud storage, role-based access control, Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), Single Sign-On (SSO), global compliance, and continuous monitoring for trusted and resilient protection. It integrates with third-party solutions, enabling intelligent automation and data processing for more efficient operations and informed decision-making.

 Device and Cloud Security

TLS 1.2 and AES-256 encryption, local data storage in the U.S., Japan, Germany, and Australia, automatic updates, and the elimination of port forwarding ensure robust cloud data security. Meanwhile, encrypted SD cards, secure system boot, signed firmware, unauthorized access prevention, and automatic updates provide top-tier device protection and performance.

Additionally, role-based access control (RBAC) and detailed audit logs enable precisely defined permissions, data security, and operational integrity. Furthermore, VORTEX ensures strong data protection by adhering to industry standards (NDAA, TAA) and maintaining GDPR compliance.

Single Sign-On (SSO) simplifies access, while Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) ensures strong protection for sensitive data and networks. Thanks to plug & play functionality, users can connect the VIVOTEK Network Video Recorder (NVR) by simply scanning a QR code, eliminating the need for manually entering an IP address, user account, or password.
