About us

Security. Global. Innovative.

viamon is a specialized technology company with a clear goal: to protect critical infrastructure through intelligent, GPS-based security solutions. Since 2008, we have been fundamentally changing how theft detection works: faster, smarter and more reliable than conventional systems. The impetus came from the founding duo Christina and Oliver Strecke, who recognized the weaknesses of conventional security measures in the solar industry early on. With in-depth expertise in internet and connectivity technologies, they developed a new approach to security. Where conventional means such as cameras or fences reach their limits, our technology comes into play: with the help of patented sensors, real-time notifications and global positioning, viamon enables the immediate detection and localization of stolen assets, from solar modules to inverters, worldwide. This basic system has been consistently developed further in recent years. New sensor technologies such as infrared sensors and jamming detectors have been added, as well as the integration of supplementary solutions such as cameras. The result is TRAPS – an innovative overall system that has been taking the economical and technologically advanced protection of photovoltaic systems to a new level since 2019.

Our technology is no longer only used in the field of photovoltaics. Wherever there is a need to protect assets and critical infrastructure, whether in energy supply, logistics, industrial environments or mobile assets, viamon ensures security and transparency. viamon is a company based in Kaiserslautern, Germany, with regional roots and an international focus. With customers and projects in numerous countries, we help to ensure that infrastructure and investments remain reliably protected.

Our mission: Security. Global. Innovative.

With a team of 25 experts, we combine in-depth technical know-how with a practical and accessible corporate culture. We work in an agile, collaborative and committed manner, always close to the needs of our customers.
