IT security | 4 pillars

The level of digitalization is increasing in all industries and we are connecting more and more. As a result, the dangers of cyber attacks are becoming ever greater. Security gaps that are exploited by hackers, ransomware as a door opener or data breaches – the dangers are diverse. In order to protect themselves sustainably against the growing threats posed by cyber attacks, it is essential for companies to further develop their security concepts.

Our approach is therefore to protect you as best as possible from these dangers in advance. Our IT security concept is based on four essential pillars that support IT security: prevention, backup, protection of sensitive data and cybersecurity. All four pillars are important for a successful IT security strategy. If one of the four pillars is missing, the entire IT security becomes unstable.

PREVENTION

Better safe than sorry! In order to keep your risks as low as possible in advance, preventative protection is extremely important. This means you are prepared for cyber attacks and can react more quickly in an emergency.

The dangers here usually lie in the security gaps in the software used, inadequate security mechanisms (firewall, ransomware protection, multi-factor authentication, data encryption, backup, etc.) and employees who are not aware of the risks.

Our aim is to inform you in advance about these possible dangers, show you possible solutions and ensure the best possible protection for your IT infrastructure.

We have solutions for this such as Sophos MDR, endpoint security, awareness workshops, firewall solutions, 2-factor authentication and much more. in our portfolio.

BACKUP

Cyber ​​attacks on corporate networks can cause data to be deleted, overwritten, encrypted or stolen. That's why a successful backup strategy is extremely important. Protect your sensitive data so that you do not lose it in the event of an attack and can access data backups.

Local backups or backups in the cloud alone do not provide sufficient protection against hacker attacks. Therefore, either a media break, storage of the backups on offline data carriers or an immutable backup such as our Kutzschbach Veeam Secure Appliance is also required.

We support you with your backup strategy so that your data is backed up and can be easily restored if necessary.

ENCRYPTION

No one should be able to access your data without your permission or knowledge. With the solutions from our partners Sophos and Boxcryptor, you have full control over your data. This means that no third party can access your data. The data is encrypted directly on your device before it is transferred.

CYBERSECURITY

Communication and information technologies play an important role in the modern corporate world. More and more efficient solutions are being developed for operations in companies and all processes are automated. However, this creates high risks of cyber crime, especially in the IT sector. Companies often fall victim to cyber attacks such as hacking, phishing, data loss or encryption.

Cyber ​​liability: If there is a legitimate claim, the costs of confidentiality and data protection breaches, network security breaches and digital communications breaches and e-payments/contractual penalties will be covered.

Protection in the event of personal damage: If damage occurs to the company due to hacker attacks or data breaches, the costs will be covered for business interruption, system restoration and system improvement, cyber theft / additional telephone costs (if agreed), material damage to IT hardware, cyber extortion and fines ( if legally permissible).

Protection in the event of data breaches: Procedural legal protection is provided for official proceedings due to an information security breach and consumer redress fund obligation.
