KVH and GOST will launch exclusive packages for security, access control, and video surveillance for superyachts at the Palm Beach International Boat Show
Middletown, RI –– KVH Industries, Inc., a leading provider of maritime connectivity and satellite TV systems, and GOST™ (Global Ocean Security Technologies), a yacht security, tracking, monitoring, and video surveillance systems supplier, will launch exclusive Superyacht Security Packages at the 2024 Palm Beach International Boat Show, March 21-24, 2024. The packages will combine the GOST Apparition and GOST Watch HD with the KVH CommBox™ Edge Communications Gateway to provide a security, access control, and video surveillance platform.
The combination of award-winning security technology with world-class network and bandwidth management offers a versatile and powerful solution for yacht owners and crews, explains Jim George, Vice President of Global Leisure Sales at KVH. “KVH is excited to partner with GOST to bring these exclusive Superyacht Security Packages to vessels around the globe. Our new CommBox Edge Communications Gateway delivers seamless integration and control, consolidating GOST’s proprietary security technology with all external and local communication networks on the vessel. Together, they help ensure that yacht owners will enjoy a heightened sense of security on their vessels.”
“Now more than ever, our joint clients are in need of defending the yacht, providing video evidence of activity aboard, isolating critical areas for specific owner/crew access, and ensuring the safety of guests aboard or ashore,” says Brian Kane, Chief Technology Officer of GOST. “The new GOST Superyacht Security Packages include everything needed to remotely monitor all activities on board the vessel from anywhere in the world via computer or smartphone.”
Owners, captains, and crew can watch live video of the yacht as it leaves the harbor or view activities in the salon, staterooms, or engine room via the GOST iPhone and Android apps. Cameras can be set to record clips on motion detection. The security system will send push notices globally via KVH communication channels. At the same time, the CommBox Edge Cloud Portal and mobile application offer real-time control and reporting on yacht data usage, network activity, and status of connectivity.
