Rekor Introduces Go-Secure.Video: Proof That Video Is Real
COLUMBIA, Md., June 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rekor Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: REKR), which builds trusted-data, privacy, and security solutions for real-world video and sensor networks, today introduced Go-Secure.Video, a media authentication technology that answers a question courts, insurers, and law enforcement agencies are increasingly being forced to confront: Can this video be proven authentic?
Rekor's patent-pending technology cryptographically authenticates video content at the exact moment of capture, creating a tamper-evident, cryptographically verifiable record tied to the originating device, date/time/location, and bound into the bitstream; if anyone alters a single pixel, frame, or element after recording. Go-Secure.Video precisely identifies where and when the alteration occurred. The system does not analyze probability. It does not flag suspicious content. It delivers a binary, evidence-admissible determination: the video is authentic, or it has been tampered with. No estimates. No guesswork. Just irrefutable proof.
Go-Secure.Video can be used through the Go-Secure.Video mobile app, embedded into recording devices through a software development kit, or integrated directly into OEM platforms, public safety systems, insurance workflows, media systems, enterprise video environments, and other visual-recording ecosystems. The Go-Secure video app is currently available for evaluation on iOS via Apple's TestFlight platform, and Rekor is in discussions with several potential launch partner OEMs regarding broader device and platform integrations.
The scale of the problem is difficult to overstate. More than one billion surveillance and security cameras are operating worldwide, with an estimated 100 million network cameras shipped annually. Add to that more than one billion smartphones shipped each year, nearly all capable of high-quality video capture, plus body cameras, dash cameras, drones, professional cameras, and enterprise video systems, and the volume of visual media being produced globally is without precedent. A growing share of that footage will eventually need to be verified, challenged, preserved, or proven. The tools to do that reliably do not yet exist at scale. Go-Secure.Video was built to change that.
Built to Answer a Question the Justice System Could No Longer Ignore
Go-Secure.Video was founded in 2024 after multiple public safety customers asked Rekor a direct question: can video evidence captured by Rekor Scout® be faked? Prosecutors and defense attorneys were using that footage in criminal proceedings and needed assurance that authenticity challenges could be answered with certainty, not probability.
Rekor responded by developing and filing patents for a chain-of-evidence framework for video and still images. The result is Go-Secure.Video, developed by Rekor Labs.
How Go-Secure.Video Works
Go-Secure.Video authenticates media in real time, not after the fact. The video is cryptographically signed at the point of capture/creation, directly on the recording, embedding a cryptographic V-Chain through signed SEI headers and hardware attestation (using Rekor Labs' patent-pending session-anchored, multi-layer, multimodal, change-hashing architecture). The resulting signature is permanent and independently verifiable by authorized parties without moving content outside the user's infrastructure.
The Validation Portal accepts any submitted video and returns detailed deterministic verdicts.
Evidence grade determination. No probabilistic scoring. No AI confidence intervals.
Compliant With Industry Standards. Built to Go Further.
Go-Secure.Video is compliant with both C2PA (Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity) and ONVIF media signing standards. It exceeds both by operating deterministically at the clip level rather than the file level, maintaining internal context, Device and Situational Binding, and by embedding provenance within the bitstream itself at the hardware layer rather than applying it as a post-capture wrapper.
Existing AI-based video tampering detection tools are probabilistic and can operate on an extracted clip, but cannot provide the cryptographic certainty needed. Go-Secure.Video solves the problem they cannot: cryptographically prove authentication, completeness, and/or edit locality (down to the frame level) within a clip extracted from a broader file, such as a GoSecure-signed file.
The Market Could Not Be More Urgent
Deepfake technology is no longer the domain of sophisticated actors. It is widely accessible, and its impact on the credibility of surveillance video is documented and accelerating. Leading trade publications covering the physical security industry have reported extensively on the rapid expansion of AI-generated video and the growing threat it poses to evidence integrity across public safety, insurance, and commercial sectors.
When a law enforcement agency submits footage as evidence, when an insurer evaluates a claim, or when a court determines whether video is admissible, the question is always the same: can this be proven? Until Go-Secure.Video, there was no definitive answer. There is now.
Leadership Statement
"Go-Secure.Video is what happens when you take a real problem from real customers and build all the way to a definitive solution. This is not a detection tool. It is a proof system. That distinction matters enormously in the markets we serve. We built Go-Secure.Video because we were asked to testify as an expert witness on video evidence and discovered there was no reliable way to prove authenticity at the clip and frame level. That gap was unacceptable. We closed it."
