Pimloc, the AI video privacy and analytics company, announces it has partnered with Marlowe Fire & Security, a UK supplier of fire and security solutions.

Video surveillance

The new partnership sees Pimloc’s SaaS video redaction solution, Secure Redact, added to Marlowe’s portfolio of security solutions, enabling end users to automate the anonymisation of personally identifying information (PII) captured in video surveillance.

Video surveillance is a top choice for enterprises looking for robust security systems and as technology continues to develop, video systems including CCTV and body-worn cameras have become a cornerstone of the modern security solution.

Need for an automated redaction solution

Organisations must manage personal data and protect individuals’ privacy by anonymising sensitive data

However, under the UK’s General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), organisations must safely manage personal data and protect individuals’ privacy by anonymising faces, objects, number plates, and other personal or sensitive data captured on camera.

Without an automated redaction solution, it is a complex and time-intensive task at risk of human error.

Secure Redact

Award-winning Secure Redact from Pimloc allows enterprises to automatically redact video making the process nearly 300 times faster than with traditional video editing solutions, saving valuable time and resources.

Its offered alongside Marlowe’s tailor-made body-worn camera and CCTV security systems, these complementary services allow end users to protect employees, customers, and assets while guaranteeing personal data privacy and compliance.

With Marlowe’s technology used in over 63,000 locations by more than 7,500 customers, Pimloc scales and strengthens its position as the UK’s pioneer in video data privacy platform.

He adds, "The addition of Secure Redact to Marlowe’s services portfolio is a game changer for end-users, eliminating the need for costly, complex, and time-consuming manual redaction."
