BSI-Approved Combination for Secure Access to Data up to Classification Level German VS-NfD
The combination of ECOS Secure Boot Stick [SX/ZX] and the BSI-approved genuscreen appliance enables secure access to data up to classification level German VS-NfD. The ECOS Secure Boot Stick can be used with any computer, even with a private computer in a remote work environment. In turn, the Firewall & VPN Appliance genuscreen uses strongly encrypted VPNs to ensure extremely secure data communication via public networks. At the same time, the firewall function of genuscreen reliably filters the data traffic at the interfaces so that impermissible or unwanted connections are blocked.
"As a result of the sales partnership with genua as one of the leading IT security companies in Germany, our customers will be able to acquire perfectly matched solutions and services from a single source in order to implement a wide variety of different application scenarios for high-security remote access," says Paul Marx, Managing Director of ECOS Technology GmbH. "This can range from connecting personnel working in the field, at home, and hybrid working, right up to application cases where, for example, federal authorities or companies with an obligation to secrecy access sensitive, classified information."
"For years, we have valued ECOS Technology as a competent specialist for high-security remote access," remarks Matthias Ochs, Managing Director of genua GmbH. "The sales partnership means that, depending on their specific requirements, customers now also have the possibility of acquiring our high-security solution genuscreen directly from ECOS and using it with any PC, e.g., at home or for bring-your-own-device concepts. We look forward to continuing our partnership to meet the growing demand for reliable remote access solutions even more effectively and together to make working from home or on the move even more secure."
