SecureTrack: Kiwa SCM-certified vehicle security in collaboration with Teltonika
June 29, 2026
Building Kiwa SCM-compliant vehicle security solutions with Teltonika
In today’s telematics and vehicle security landscape, compliance is no longer optional. It is both a market requirement and an important sign of trust. Compliance demonstrates that hardware, software and installation processes meet strict, independently verified standards for reliability, security and performance.
For Conneqtech, these standards form the foundation of SecureTrack: a complete Kiwa SCM-certified vehicle security and recovery solution, developed in collaboration with technology partner Teltonika.
Security backed by recognised standards
Across Europe, vehicle theft remains a serious challenge. As a result, insurers, fleet operators, dealers and vehicle owners are placing increasingly strict requirements on vehicle security systems and stolen vehicle recovery processes.
Several recognised certification standards are used across Europe, including Kiwa SCM in the Netherlands, Thatcham Research in the United Kingdom and Forsikring & Pension in Denmark. These standards help ensure that a complete solution meets strict certification criteria and offers a high level of vehicle protection.
Meeting these requirements takes more than installing a GPS tracker. Hardware manufacturers, software providers, service organisations, certified installers and alarm receiving centres must work together to create a reliable end-to-end solution. That includes certified hardware, stable connectivity, secure software, correct installation and a clearly defined recovery process.
Key components of Kiwa SCM compliance
To achieve Kiwa SCM certification, the complete solution must meet the stated requirements. This applies to both the hardware and the surrounding software and operational processes. A tracking device must, among other things:
- operate autonomously for a specified period;
- have a durable housing;
- support relevant anti-theft scenarios;
- continue communicating reliably under demanding conditions.
The Teltonika hardware used within SecureTrack can operate for up to eight days without external power. Its IP67-rated housing protects the device against dust and water, making it suitable for demanding vehicle security applications.
However, hardware is only one part of the solution. The operational process must also ensure that alerts are handled quickly and that the vehicle, its owner, the certified alarm receiving centre and, where necessary, the police are connected through a clear recovery process.
SecureTrack: a Kiwa SCM-certified solution from Conneqtech
SecureTrack combines the Teltonika hardware with Conneqtech’s connectivity, software platform, mobile app, integration capabilities, service and support.
Together, these elements form one complete Kiwa SCM-certified vehicle security solution. SecureTrack supports essential anti-theft functions such as:
- real-time vehicle location;
- ignition detection;
- automatic geofencing;
- immobilisation scenarios;
- connection to a certified alarm receiving centre;
- a structured recovery process.
Simply having these functions available in a GPS tracker is not enough. The real value lies in ensuring that all components work together reliably when a vehicle is stolen.
“We build solutions in which data becomes workable in daily operations. We do not believe in data sitting in a separate platform without context,” says Tommie Bogaers, Proposition & Business Developer at Conneqtech.
“The difference is that a certified recovery solution is purpose-built for security and theft recovery, whereas standard telematics is usually built primarily for visibility and operational insight.”
More than a tracking device
A certified vehicle recovery solution depends on the complete chain.
- The device must send the correct information.
- The connection must remain stable.
- The software must recognise and process an alert.
- The alarm receiving centre must be informed.
- And the recovery procedure must be clear before an incident occurs.
That is why Conneqtech combines technology with service, certified installation and professional follow-up. SecureTrack is therefore not simply a GPS tracker. It is a complete security ecosystem designed to protect valuable vehicles and support rapid action after theft.
Technology that develops with changing requirements
Vehicle security standards and market requirements continue to evolve. Teltonika is therefore continuing to develop its hardware portfolio. It’s hardware remains a widely adopted solution for current compliance requirements, while new devices based on Teltonika’s FT platform are being developed to offer lower power consumption, longer autonomous operation and more durable housings.
For Conneqtech, this ongoing development is important. It enables SecureTrack to continue evolving alongside new security requirements, technologies and customer needs.
Building a certified vehicle security solution
Developing a Kiwa SCM-compliant solution requires more than selecting the right hardware.
It requires cooperation between technology providers, software specialists, certified installers, alarm receiving centres and service organisations. Through SecureTrack, Conneqtech brings these components together into one certified and professionally supported solution.
