Confidentiality by Default

Confidentiality by Default

Every tester signs a binding NDA, and every session is tied to device metadata for full accountability.

Controlled Asset Access

Controlled Asset Access

All builds, recordings, and study assets remain access-restricted and fully encrypted throughout their lifecycle.

Where Authentic Player Experience
Meets Uncompromised

Build Protection

Lysto locks down every layer of your playtest - infrastructure, panel, permissions, and distribution, so your teams can run research at speed without exposing your build or compromising insight quality.

Kill Switch
(Remote Build Deactivation)

Build access ends the moment the test concludes, remotely and automatically. The build cannot be opened outside the Lysto app and becomes completely inaccessible after the session.

auto_delete

Auto-Deletion After Session End

All gameplay recordings are automatically deleted from the player's device once the session concludes.

Secure Build Distribution

Builds are encrypted end-to-end and accessible only to verified testers who have cleared NDA consent and identity checks.

Strict NDA Gatekeeping

Players cannot access your build until they have signed a legally enforceable NDA.

tamper_detection_off

Screenshot Protection

Unauthorized capture attempts are detected, traced to the tester's identity, and instantly flagged by us.

Role-Based Access (Studio Control)

Once submitted, submissions are only accessible to authorized studio personnel. You decide who sees builds, who sees insights, and who gets access, down to the permission level.

Activity Trail and Access Logging

Every event from NDA sign-in to gameplay submission is logged, timestamped, and completely auditable, and can be shared with studios on request.

Global Players

A Secure, Screened, Global Player Panel You Can Depend On

From NDA enforcement to identity checks and behavioural monitoring, the curated global player panel upholds the level of authenticity, reliability, and control your research requires.

Frequently Asked Questions

Lysto implements multiple layers of security to protect unreleased builds throughout the playtesting process.

Players cannot access your build until they have signed a legally enforceable NDA. Builds are encrypted end-to-end and accessible only to verified testers who have cleared NDA consent and identity checks. Build access ends automatically through a remote kill switch the moment the test concludes. The build cannot be opened outside the Lysto app and becomes completely inaccessible after the session.

Unauthorized screenshot or capture attempts are detected, traced to the tester's identity, and instantly flagged. All gameplay recordings are automatically deleted from the player's device once the session ends. Role-based access controls ensure submissions are only accessible to authorized studio personnel, allowing you to decide who sees builds, insights, and data down to the permission level.

Every event from NDA sign-in to gameplay submission is logged, timestamped, and auditable. These activity trails can be shared with studios on request.

No. Build access ends automatically the moment the playtest session concludes.

Lysto uses a remote kill switch that deactivates the build immediately after the playtest ends. The build cannot be opened outside the Lysto app and becomes completely inaccessible to the player. This ensures that once the playtest is complete, players have no way to return to, share, or interact with your build.

All gameplay recordings are also automatically deleted from the player's device after the session, ensuring no trace of the build remains on their hardware.

Lysto's screenshot protection system detects unauthorized capture attempts in real time.

If a player tries to record or screenshot the build, the attempt is detected, traced to the tester's identity, and instantly flagged by our system. This allows studios to identify which specific playtester attempted unauthorized capture and take appropriate action if needed.

This protection layer works alongside NDA enforcement and build access controls to ensure your unreleased content remains secure throughout the playtesting process.

Players cannot access your build until they have signed a legally enforceable NDA.

Before any gameplay begins, playtesters must agree to confidentiality terms that prohibit sharing, distributing, or discussing the game outside of the playtest. This includes restrictions on screenshots, recordings, streaming, or any form of public disclosure about the build or its content.

Each NDA is tied to the playtester's verified identity, and the sign-in event is logged and timestamped for audit purposes. If a playtester violates confidentiality terms, their actions are traceable through Lysto's activity logging system, providing studios with a clear record of who accessed the build and when.

This strict NDA gatekeeping ensures that only players who have legally agreed to protect your game's confidentiality can participate in playtests.

Lysto takes data privacy seriously and handles all personal information in compliance with applicable data protection regulations.

Playtester personal information, including identity verification data and contact details, is stored securely and used only for recruitment, verification, and session management purposes. Gameplay recordings, feedback, and session data collected during playtests are accessible only to authorized studio personnel through role-based access controls.

Studios decide who within their team can access playtest data, builds, and insights, down to the permission level. All activity within the platform is logged and auditable, ensuring transparency around who accessed what information and when.

Player data is not shared with third parties outside of the playtesting relationship between the studio and Lysto. For more detailed information about data handling practices, studios can contact their Games Partnership Manager or reach out to us directly at contact@lysto.io.
