Problem
Organizations and households increasingly rely on connected devices—cameras, smart speakers, robots, and IoT sensors—that continuously transmit data to manufacturer servers by default. This uncontrolled outbound traffic creates privacy risks, makes compliance with regulations such as GDPR, NIS2, AI Act, CRA, and the Cyber Resilience Act difficult, and leaves networks vulnerable to malicious activity.
Solution
Clear Intelligence provides an inline network gateway that sits between every device and the internet, automatically discovering and cataloguing each connected endpoint, including manufacturer, model, and firmware version. The platform enforces a default‑deny outbound policy, allowing traffic only through per‑device rules defined by the administrator. It monitors encrypted traffic patterns without decryption, establishing behavioral baselines and flagging anomalies in real time. Comprehensive audit‑ready logs and data‑minimization controls help organizations meet regulatory obligations across GDPR, NIS2, AI Act, CRA, and the Cyber Resilience Act. The solution is offered for both enterprise environments and residential settings, giving users granular control over data leaving their networks.
Target Audience
Primary customers are enterprises managing large IoT fleets and privacy‑focused households that need to control data exfiltration from smart devices and ensure regulatory compliance.
