Austin, Texas – May 1, 2025
Prometheus Security Group Global (PSG), a pioneer in Zero Trust physical security, announces the issuance of two U.S. patents protecting its revolutionary Scene Authentication technology, a component of its Zero TrustUnified Solution. This industry-first solution verifies the authenticity of video streams using encrypted lightpulses embedded into the monitored environment.
The awarded patents are:
- U.S. Patent No. 9,432,390-B2 – Methods for embedding encrypted light into a scene to verify video
authenticity. - U.S. Patent No. 2015/0188938-A1 – Enhancements for multi-device sync and continuous authentication,
even during network disruptions.
Prometheus’s Scene Authentication solution introduces a new layer of defense in video surveillance by
embedding encrypted light into the physical environment itself, enabling each frame to be cryptographically validated in real time. This approach defends against tampering, spoofing, and other attacks that traditional camera-based architectures cannot detect.
“Prometheus’s Scene Authentication solution ensures video integrity at a level the industry
has never seen before,” said Jeremy Freeze-Skret, CSEIP, VP of Engineering at PSG.
The technology was born out of field work at sensitive government sites, where PSG engineers demonstratedhow easily surveillance video could be looped and spoofed—even with the cameras powered off.
“With just Wireshark and a few lines of code, we replayed footage that fooled experienced
operators,” said Freeze-Skret. “It became clear that we needed to authenticate not just the video
stream, but the scene itself.”
As generative AI and deepfake technologies advance, demand for verifiable visual data has grown
exponentially. Unlike conventional methods that secure only the camera, Prometheus’s Scene Authentication solution embeds integrity directly into the environment—making it ideal for high-stakes applications across financial institutions, critical infrastructure, and government environments. Additional potential use cases include legal evidence, treaty verification, and content authentication on social media and political platforms.
The technology ensures that video data is continuously verified and authenticated, supporting end-to-end Zero Trust Architecture and aligning with cybersecurity mandates including Executive Order 14028.
