Connected V16 Beacon and Cybersecurity: How Data Is Protected in NB-IoT
Road safety is no longer just a matter of visibility, it's also a matter of data. The Hero Driver LED IoT connected and geolocated V16 beacon makes a difference thanks to its integration with NB-IoT technology. But how secure is this connection? How is the data sent by your connected beacon protected?
What is a connected V16 beacon?
The connected V16 beacon replaces the emergency triangle and ensures your safety on the road by activating it with a single gesture. This device must be approved by the DGT (Directorate-General for Traffic) and transmits your location in real time to alert you of an incident.
The Hero Driver LED IoT version incorporates NB-IoT technology to comply with new regulations and allows emergency services to receive your location even in areas without conventional cellular coverage.
What is NB-IoT and why is it secure?
NB-IoT (Narrowband Internet of Things) is a network designed specifically for IoT devices. Its advantages in terms of coverage, stability, and low power consumption make it the perfect choice for road safety systems.
📡 Its cybersecurity features include:
- 🔒 End-to-end encryption of transmitted data.
- 📶 Direct connection to the operator's network, avoiding intermediaries.
- 🛡️ Secure authentication between the device and the server.
Thanks to these measures, data transmission from the Hero Driver LED IoT beacon is highly secure, protecting both your location and your identity.
What data does your beacon transmit and what is it used for?
The connected V16 beacon only transmits the data essential to ensure your safety:
- 🧭 GPS coordinates of the incident location.
- 🕒 Date and time of the notice.
- 🔁 Device status (incident activation, incident in progress, and incident closure).
This data is sent directly to the DGT cloud, from where it informs other users through traffic dashboards and compatible applications.
At no time is personal information such as your name or license plate number collected. The entire system is designed to be anonymous, efficient, and useful only in an emergency.
