Full ID | Governance

Do you know how to make your company more secure?

Over the past two years, one in three companies in Germany has had its IT systems attacked.  Protecting technologies, data and company workflows is increasingly becoming a competitive factor for companies.

Cyber attacks are now a challenge facing both companies and private ­individuals. Around one million people are affected by this every day and European Commissioner for Home Affairs, Cecilia Malmström, estimates that victims world-wide lose around €290bn each year.  As a result of increased workflow digitisation and system networking, there is a growing risk of ­falling prey to cyber crime, for instance, through digital identity theft. That's why companies today should better protect their workflows and business secrets and identify security-critical data as early as possible. Bundesdruckerei is a global leader in Secure ID and has developed the Full ID | Governance solution kit which provides companies and organisations with the technologies, services and know-how to analyse and implement secure processes, especially for use in security-critical areas. But the victims are not just companies in the private sector, public agencies are also increasingly becoming the target of cyber attacks. According to Bundesamt für Verfassungsschutz, the domestic intelligence service of the Federal Republic of Germany, an average of three cyber attacks against the IT infrastructure of federal agencies were registered every day in 2012. Solutions from Bundesdruckerei are going a long way to help establish here a culture of security.

How can I as an entrepreneur protect data, processes and technologies against external access?

First of all, you have to identify the weak points for potential threats. You have to know where your IT infrastructure could be susceptible to attack and how criminals can gain access. And, what's more, you need a fully reliable partner. ­Bundesdruckerei – one of the market leaders in Secure ID – has developed a Full ID | Governance solution kit which will allow you to create even greater security at your company, from communication to personnel management, right through to rights and access ­management.

How can I encrypt my communications and protect access to my company's servers without having to replace my entire system?

The key question today is: How do I know who I am actually dealing with? Secure communication also always means verifying identities. When it comes to protection for companies, Bundesdruckerei has a broad range of mechanisms on offer, from signatures to encryption of e-mails and files right through to securing networks and servers. The advantage of Bundesdruckerei's solutions is that the modules can be perfectly integrated into legacy infrastructures.

How can I fulfil the legal requirements in conjunction with compliance?

First of all, awareness must be generated within the company so that the rules of behaviour, laws and guidelines that apply to your company are adhered to. Secondly, the company should implement solutions, so that all employees are familiar with these rules of behaviour and guidelines. As part of Full ID | Governance, Bundesdruckerei supplies auditable solution paths, ranging from eLearning to on-site ­training.

What exactly does the service portfolio have to offer?

Bundesdruckerei can provide you with modules to protect your company that are ­tailored to your specific needs. This begins with reliable visitor and access management which ensures who can access which areas. This can be supplemented by building and infrastructure management which controls use of rooms, machines, etc. It goes without saying that all communication matters are covered, while innovative user and rights management ensures effective protection for all computers, systems and machines within the company. eLearning systems for compliance management are just as much part of the offer as are efficient document and workflow management and tools for personnel management to record working and project hours. Bundesdruckerei also naturally provides its customers with perfect system implementation and integration as well as service, maintenance and support.
