By integrating Pilot Sign-On, newsrooms can add another layer of security to protect their digital assets and maintain operational efficiency.
Vizrt has launched Pilot Sign-On, a new security feature for its Viz Pilot Edge HTML-based newsroom graphics platform.
With cyber-attacks occurring every 39 seconds, modern newsrooms face significant security threats, making advanced authentication mechanisms essential. Pilot Sign-On is designed specifically for newsroom environments to provide robust security measures, ensuring that only authorised personnel can access sensitive information, editorial tools and reports. This feature significantly reduces the risk of unauthorised access and data breaches.
Ionut ‘Johnny’ Pogacean, Senior Product Manager, Vizrt, said: “Journalists routinely handle highly confidential information and need reliable and secure systems. Pilot Sign-On addresses these concerns by providing a simple, yet secure authentication process that enhances the integrity of newsroom activities. This system not only protects sensitive information but also streamlines access for journalists and designers, ensuring they continue to work in a safe and secure manner.”
Incorporating Pilot Sign-On, newsrooms can enhance their security, protect digital assets, and maintain operational efficiency. This feature also simplifies the audit process for internal IT teams.
Additionally, Vizrt has overhauled Template Builder, used to create Viz Pilot Edge templates, with modern web technology for improved security and speed. This update enhances startup time, and UI responsiveness, and ensures a consistent look and behavior once templates are loaded in Pilot Edge. These improvements are aimed at making newsroom workflows more efficient and future-proof.
