What our partners have said about Lucid
Lucid Serves a variety of companies, across
a broad spectrum of use cases
Edge Intelligent Software for Networking, Connectivity, and Security
CyberLucent provides a lightweight software platform called Lucid, that is easily embedded into a variety of consumer and business routers by device manufacturers and ISPs. Lucid provides a unique and powerful way to identify, isolate, and connect users, devices, and applications to both legacy and greenfield networks — for maximum simplicity, security, and performance.
The Lucid platform consists of a containerized system, existing on the edge, with control from a centralized and policy-rules based control engine
CyberLucent's Insights evaluates traffic on a per stream or even packet basis delivering unique awareness to packet flow
Lucid drives a number of unmatched capabilities with the network
Lucid already is used as a white-labeled product and sold as a Value Added service, by a number of leading device manufacturers and internet service providers (ISPs)
Example use cases:
Lucid software provides network security that is critical for small businesses. The software allows a small business to easily connect sites and isolate critical devices, such as POS systems, from other users. It is cost-effective, simple to set up, and easy to manage – we call it “a CIO in a box”. Lucid eliminates the need for using complex VPNs or agents on employee devices and provides substantial reduced total cost of ownership, all while reducing complexity and providing better security than legacy solutions.
Lucid software runs on the gateways that IoT and critical infrastructure devices use to connect to the Internet. By residing on the gateway rather than on the device itself, Lucid is compatible with any type of Internet connected device. Lucid isolates every IoT device connected to a Lucid-enabled gateway, only permitting authorized traffic protocols and connection to authorized destinations. This provides a highly scalable way to manage security and connectivity across a fleet consisting of various types of IoT devices. Lucid’s patented, device-class assignment provides rulesets and controls for similar types of devices, allowing for rapid scaling and provisioning of IoT devices across the network in seconds with rule-based access and AI anomaly detection.
Lucid software runs on a variety of home gateway(s). It allows consumers to control and monitor all devices on their home network, without requiring complex VPNs or agents. Critical devices, such as a work-from-home laptop can be isolated from TVs, smart refrigerators, and other connected devices. All devices on a home network can be monitored (e.g. AI automated parental controls) and set to connect only to what they need to be connected, all while maintaining user privacy by never decrypting confidential information (in contrast to other legacy security solutions).
Lucid software operates as essentially an advanced, containerized, software-based router inside the network. It can work within both green field and legacy security networks. A useful attribute is that it intelligently directs packets based on advanced routing rules and application priorities. This capability is particularly useful for businesses that want to prioritize traffic and access. Lucid goes even further for networks that have an existing internet connection, by allowing an additional Internet connection to serve as a fail-over for those cases where connectivity is critical and to share in the workload of carrying data traffic. Lucid software then routes the packets (data traffic) in the most efficient fashion, maximizing available bandwidth and determines when fail-over is necessary.
Lucid can be installed throughout an ISP network, preferably at the edge, to inspect, manage, and route every packet on a user or IoT device basis for a cost-effective approach to security, connectivity, and network insights
