Safety investigators · Involved parties · Accredited representatives

Send draft reports for comment, and play recordings without handing them over.

Transport safety investigators send draft reports to operators, manufacturers and crews for comment before publication, and work with accredited representatives from overseas. On-board recordings are restricted by law, so they're played in the browser rather than sent.

Why investigation drafts need control

Draft reports go to the people and organizations involved so they can comment before publication. A leaked draft can harm the investigation, and on-board recordings can't be shared like ordinary files.

Questions

Can involved parties download the draft?

Not with View only. They read it in the browser, and their access ends on the date you set.

Can recordings be downloaded?

Not with View only. Recordings play in DekkoCORE's media player, which has no download button.

Is playback encrypted in the same way as storage?

No. While a recording plays, the media service that plays it needs the file's key. Ask us where that service runs for your region.

Do overseas representatives need an account?

Yes. They sign in as external members, which lets DekkoCORE record each view against a person.

Can View only stop someone filming the screen?

No software can fully stop a screen being filmed. DekkoCORE records exactly who viewed each file and when.

Where is the data stored?

DekkoCORE is hosted in-country, in Australia, the United States or Canada.
