How IT Services secure your data and optimize connectivity

Their challenge was clear: ensure continuous access to operational data, even during internet outages, and safeguard sensitive information against cyber threats. For me and my team, this was about combining reliability with security—no compromises.

Here’s how we delivered

I started by optimizing data transmission with buffer servers. This prevented bottlenecks and ensured that data kept flowing smoothly. Even when the internet connection dropped, the data acquisition didn’t stop. Our 24/7 Operational Control Center (OCC) was alerted immediately, and locally stored data was pushed to the cloud as soon as the connection was restored. Not a single piece of data was lost.

To guarantee confidentiality and integrity, we implemented Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) and firewalls, both local and cloud-based. By strictly following NIS2 regulations, we ensured every bit of information was protected against unauthorized access.

We didn’t stop there. Each asset was registered in our Information Security Management System (ISMS), where we performed a thorough risk assessment. Every day, I reviewed updates from the German Cyber Security Authorities (BSI) and technical reports to stay ahead of new vulnerabilities. If something critical appeared, our Information Security Officer (ISO) was ready to act immediately, following pre-established protocols to resolve the issue fast.

The results: uninterrupted and secure operations

By combining expertise and proactive monitoring, we achieved exactly what the client needed:

• Uninterrupted operations: Even during outages, data acquisition continued seamlessly.
• Enhanced security: VPNs and firewalls ensured data was safe and fully compliant with NIS2 regulations.
• Proven compliance: Our success during the 2024 audit demonstrated the robustness of our cybersecurity approach.
