Flock Device Security
Endpoint Encryption
Footage is encrypted at the point of collection and transmitted with transport encryption to backend cloud infrastructure where it is stored with advanced encryption.
Secure Installation
Products are assembled within our factories by trained technicians and access is controlled through secure policy configurations that restrict the amount of interaction with devices deployed within the field.
Asset Management
Devices that are connected to Flock’s network and infrastructure are tracked centrally that validate the deployment of protection mechanisms and identify unauthorized assets.

Access Control

  • Role Based Access Control
  • Account Management
  • Privileged Access Management

Access Control
Role Based Access Control
The platform provides customer’s role based access control to organizations with account administrators that can manage and control individual users’ access to features such as video, pan-tilt-zoom (“PTZ”) capabilities, logs, search, and sharing.
Account Management
Every customer is provided access to their devices and the ability to monitor and manage associated content. Device sharing is limited to specific entities and users, protecting unauthorized users from gaining control over devices and mitigating risks of misuse.
Privileged Access Management
Hardware tokens are required for administrator access to sensitive technology resources and soft tokens are required by users to access sensitive personal data.

Infrastructure and Network
Threat Monitoring
Threat detection services provided through AWS continuously protect and monitor for malicious network activity against essential cloud services.
Secure Configuration
Flock uses both AWS Government and Commercial services to provide a secure cloud configuration with solutions and tools for identity and access management, encryption, auditing, and compliance monitoring. Flock also configures cloud computing resources to industry benchmarks from the Center for Internet Security (CIS). Technology deployed on cloud resources continuously scan for misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and non-compliance issue.
Encryption
Customers accessing data are using the latest TLS protocols to provide confidentiality and integrity of communication over the internet and data at rest is encrypted using AES 256. Key Management uses he latest technologies offered by AWS.

Incident Detection and Response
Activity Logging
Auditing is established to capture details of user activities including user, organization, devices access, timestamps, filters utilize and associated case numbers to provide a transparent and detailed record of each action performed within the system.
Event Monitoring
System activity logging provides customers transparency and accountability needed to conduct reviews of compliance to standard operating procedures, legal protocols, and ethical guidelines and can be used to detect unauthorized associations for investigation of noncompliance with data protection and privacy regulations.
Incident Containment and Response
Operating procedures are designed to investigate and react to events that could impact Flock’s security objectives.These procedures are routinely assessed with synthetic incidents to ensure roles and responsibilities throughout the organization are understood and procedures for containment and response are effective in the event of an actual security incident.
