Security
smart2i works with professional, certified, GDPR-compliant cloud solutions.
Protection against data theft or loss
- Cloud providers are always technically up to date
- Data is stored in highly professional data processing centres. Access is secured via multiple authentication types
- Scans for weak points and security updates are regularly carried out
- Strict security practices and the use of security certificates prevent third-party access
- Data is transmitted in encrypted form, thus making unauthorised recording impossible
- Multiple redundant and extremely quick internet connections prevent downtimes
Secure legal situation and regulations
- Cloud providers ensure maximum legal compliance – providers cannot allow anything less
- Companies should rely on cloud services that operate their data processing centres in Germany (or Europe) due to legal certainty
- If the servers are operated in Europe, they are subject to the European Data Protection Regulation
- Thus your customised Industry Intelligence solution smart2i is also GDPR-compliant
Safeguarding against failure
- Backups prevent the loss of data
- Backup storage space within the cloud is connected very quickly
- Storage space is available in virtually any size
- Individual system hardware failures have no effect on the security of the data
- Distribution to several server locations with very good network connection
Compatibility of cloud and company IT
- A user does not have to leave their usual portfolio to be able to use cloud as well as on-premise services
- Different systems are integrated by cloud operators and fulfil the highest security standards
- Cloud data centres are usually at a much higher level than most companies can build in their own server rooms
- Storage space and performance can be quickly adapted to changing requirements
- The server architecture administration is largely dropped or taken over by the cloud service
- 24/7 support is guaranteed by the service provider
