Vizrt Launches Pilot Sign-On

Vizrt has launched Pilot Sign-On for its Viz Pilot Edge HTML-based newsroom graphics platform.

Security authentication is critical to the modern newsrooms’ operational integrity. With a new cyber-attack happening every 39 seconds, the threat of rogue agents targeting media organisations is very real, making it essential to implement advanced authentication mechanisms.

Designed specifically for newsroom environments, Pilot Sign-On offers robust security measures to safeguard sensitive journalist workflows. Ensuring only authorised personnel can access sensitive information, and crucial editorial tools, or investigate reports, Pilot Sign-On protects against unauthorised access and reduces the risk of a data breach.

"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," explained Ionut 'Johnny' Pogacean, Senior Product Manager, Vizrt.

By integrating Pilot Sign-On, newsrooms can add another layer of security to confidently protect their digital assets and maintain operational efficiency. Additionally, it simplifies any audit process for internal IT teams.

Additionally, Template Builder, which is used to build the Viz Pilot Edge templates, has been completely overhauled and rewritten in modern web technology for not just added security, but also speed. This action offers improved startup time, makes the UI faster and will ensure a similar look and behaviour once the template is loaded in Pilot Edge, as well as many other quality-of-life improvements that will make newsroom workflows more efficient and futureproof.
