Built out of industry-grade protection schemes that ships on billions of devices — we repurposed these for business and personal use and added event-gated key release with a policy engine.
Widevine, PlayReady, and FairPlay already ship on billions of devices. Modern cameras can run apps and encrypt encoded video on-device. LockedStream composes these proven components — the same ones that protect Netflix, the Apple App Store, and Amazon Kindle — and applies them to surveillance footage in a way that makes sense for business and personal use cases.
Footage is sealed the moment it's captured and only ever decrypted for an authorized recipient, on a verified event.
Video is sealed on the device that captures it. There is no window where plaintext sits unprotected on a network or disk.
Even a partial compromise exposes only seconds of footage. There is no master key that unlocks everything.
The policy engine holds keys back until an AI-verified event or explicit policy match — then releases only the relevant clips.
Keys are handled in a trusted execution environment via Widevine, PlayReady, or FairPlay — not exposed to application code.
Every release is cryptographically signed with chain-of-custody metadata — exportable evidence that stands up in court.
Built on MPEG-CENC and mainstream DRM, so it interoperates instead of locking you into one vendor.
LockedStream is built on the work Scenera has done since 2018 — the company behind the NICE Alliance specification for intelligent camera interoperability, funded by the sensor makers who power cameras worldwide.
The event-gated, policy-based approach to sensor data is protected by three granted U.S. patents:
The entire protection stack already exists. We're composing it and pointing it at the content that actually matters — so privacy can be the default, not an upgrade.
We'll walk your security and engineering teams through the architecture and a live deployment.
