Prevent cyber attacks and data theft with reliable encryption and 2-factor authentication. HiCrypt and SmartLogon ensure more simplicity in implementation.

The number of cyber attacks on German companies has increased dramatically in recent years. Studies show that data theft, sabotage or espionage affect the entire economy and the damage runs into billions. And the trend towards home offices since the beginning of the pandemic means additional IT security challenges, says Matthias Kirchhoff, Managing Director of digitronic computersysteme gmbh. The IT service provider offers solutions for the reliable encryption of sensitive data as well as 2-factor authentication that leaves no back door open and with which users can log in securely and conveniently.

Encryption - the basis for secure data

There is confidential data in every company. Yet often enough is not done to protect them. Conventional password protection for data and folders and common Windows tools for encryption are not sufficient to protect them from hackers or unauthorized persons. “There is no avoiding the use of additional tools to adequately protect sensitive information.” The award-winning HiCrypt ™ encryption solution from digitronic encrypts data on network drives and ensures that only authorized persons can view confidential data, regardless of the Windows user profile.

2-factor authentication offers secure access

Strong passwords protect, but they are complex to manage and difficult to use. With SmartLogon ™ digitronic offers a secure and convenient 2-factor authentication solution for SMEs, industry, administrations and authorities or health facilities. The user login is implemented here with a short PIN and a security token. Different tokens are supported. All-in-one compliance packages combine the security solutions offered with an individual advisory service in order to prevent attacks comprehensively and in accordance with audits.
