How Municipal Fleet & Asset IoT Monitor protects data and supports your compliance obligations.
Security controls
Single sign-on
Staff sign in through your identity provider, so your password and multi-factor policies apply.
Role-based access
What each person can see follows their role and department; police and other sensitive vehicles can be hidden from everyone outside the owning department.
Public map safeguards
Only the services and vehicle classes you choose appear publicly, after a delay you set, and never with driver names.
Encryption and keys
Client data is encrypted, with keys Moraph staff cannot use without explicit, time-bound authorization.
Complete audit trail
Every view of location history, export and change is logged with the person and time, and cannot be edited.
US-only hosting
Data for US government clients is hosted in the United States region only, and every release passes security testing gates with a software bill of materials kept for the product.
Requirements it supports
- FBI CJIS Security Policy, where police vehicle data is involved
- Uniform Guidance on equipment (2 CFR 200.313) for federally funded vehicles
- GASB Statement No. 34 capital asset reporting
- 49 CFR Part 396 inspection, repair and maintenance, where your state applies it to government vehicles
- State public records laws governing vehicle location data
The product supports these requirements; meeting them remains your organization's responsibility.
Where it runs
- Moraph cloud (US): Hosted and operated by Moraph in the United States region.
- Dedicated environment: A single-tenant environment for cities whose policies require isolation, for example where police vehicle data is included, scoped in the proposal.
- With a managed service: Optionally run alongside a Moraph managed service for telematics integration support and platform administration.
Limitations
- It does not supply telematics hardware or connectivity. Devices and data plans come from your telematics providers, and data quality depends on them.
- Equipment sensor data such as plow and spreader status is only available where vehicles are fitted to report it.
- The public map shows where vehicles have passed with equipment active; it is not a guarantee of road condition or that a street is clear.
- What appears on the public map, and when, is your city's decision. The Monitor applies those settings.
- It is not a full fleet maintenance or parts inventory system. It works with your existing maintenance system or handles basic work orders only.
- It is not a computer-aided dispatch system and does not dispatch police, fire or EMS vehicles.
- Driver behavior data may be subject to labor agreements and records laws; how it is used is your city's decision.
- Location history is kept for the retention period you set, and is subject to your state's public records law.
Company-wide controls, independent audits (SOC 2 Type II and ISO/IEC 27001) and data residency are described in the Moraph Trust Center, where you can request the evidence pack.
