Security for Your Business.
Outstanding industry solutions are created from long-standing industry competence. T-Systems has proven its innovative strength and technical competence in a wide range of projects. Our solutions are precisely tailored to the individual requirements and business processes of your industry. This is good for your business. T-Systems has more than 20 years of experience as a consulting and solutions provider in the area of Information and Telecommunications Security (ICT security). As complex and multifaceted as industries, business processes, and organizations can be, ICT security always needs to meet these needs. Many methods, solutions, measures, and mechanisms used in ICT security have been devel-oped for a cross-section of businesses in a single industry. Others represent solutions to specific
requirements, which can then be transferred to other sectors. And yet security is more than just an interdisciplinary topic.
IT security represents a cross-sectoral challenge. Suitable IT and TC solutions necessitate suitable forms of security. These range from an applica-tion-specific selection through the customized organization of methods and solutions used in an adaptation to the new development of security methods and solutions for the primary tasks of your business. T-Systems security consultants are optimally prepared to take on these assign-ments. Take advantage of our services. We know what really matters.
Information and
telecommunications security.
Only those who know their customers
can develop the optimal solution.
Examples of IT security in selected industries.
Telecom services
and networks.
The Internet is becoming mobile through hotspots and wireless networks. The areas of TV/radio, Internet, and telephone are all merging into triple play. And the growing variety of services, accesses, and end devices requires a continual integration of new security measures. Voice over IP is only the first step. Networks are now being replaced in the background: fundamentally new architec-ture and the standard use of the Internet Protocol (IP) means that services and networks are being decoupled. This has important consequences for the required security measures, as a range of services and providers are now working on single platforms and need to be separated. Access con-trol and billing no longer occur at the network access, but within the services. The protection of networks, including the observation of regulations under the corresponding telecommunications law, requires new security concepts and measures. T-Systems, as a subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom AG and service provider on the external market, can help shape these.
Identity and Access
Management (IAM).
Reductions in the depth of added value, stan- dards, and flexibility are characteristics of industri- alization, which has progressed at an advanced rate in the automotive industry. Development and production are shifting from the automobile manufacturers to the suppliers. What were once linear value-added chains are developing into complex, deeply interlaced industrial structures. At the same time, the growing use of information technology can be seen in development, produc-tion, and sales, as well as marketing and service. Partially project-based and rapidly expanding access to IT systems and applications places high requirements on Identity and Access Manage-ment (IAM) – both inside a company and beyond. T-Systems projects include consulting and inte-gration services for IAM in the automotive area.

Intellectual property
protection.
Internationalization and the growing network structures of development and production pro-cesses bring new challenges to IT security. This affects the network connections of partners, suppliers, and joint ventures, as well as the pro-tection of computer centers abroad, for example. Research and development are keys to business success, e.g. in the pharmaceutical industry. From research to production, confidential information must always be specially protected. Modern detector and filter solutions monitor and control
the data flow via individual information channels or in complete systems. Digital Rights Manage-ment (DRM) is increasingly expanding beyond communications security, preventing unauthor-ized information transmission by assigning rights for accessing documents. It also integrates mecha-nisms directly within the application environment. T-Systems offers customized services from a single source, ranging from conceptual design to authentication solutions.
Corporate and
e-business processes.
Banks and insurance companies work at organ-izing processes as flexibly and efficiently as possible. Yet a considerable portion of commu-nication is still carried out by mailed letters. The processing and archiving of documents is com-plex and involves numerous changes in media formats. Digitalizing documents and electronic archives can optimize processes and lower costs. Electronic signatures with smart cards create security and ensure legal protection. In addition to innovative products, success is frequently determined by market development and effective customer service. Therefore, Inter-net portal solutions and offers for mobile end de-vices are already being implemented. Effectively preventing theft of customer data and misuse of systems necessitates comprehensive security measures. T-Systems designs and integrates security components in corporate applications, as well as overall workflow, providing security services – also in Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA), for example.
E-government and
critical infrastructures.
Public administrative departments are facing major challenges. These need to be transformed into efficient service companies that view citi-zens as customers. At the same time, costs must be drastically lowered in the public area. In the process, IT solutions, ranging from workflow and document management to archiving, must meet special security requirements. Mixed networks for data information are being merged. But information and telecommunication tech-nologies are not only finding their way into ad-ministrative departments – they are the lifeblood of industrial nations. Public authorities carry special responsibility for the protection of the economy and public life as a whole. T-Systems has advised public agencies in a highly diverse range of projects, designing and implementing solutions for the execution of sovereign functions.
Dynamics of the markets
and the working world.
Your partner for security.
Dispersed locations and high mobility – in today’s world, information exchange is already complex within a single company. Communication with customers and suppliers only adds to this com-plexity. T-Systems designs and implements the required solutions.
Frequently, however, this involves merging, dis-solving, and redesigning entire IT structures and processes. Mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures often lead to large-scale reorganization and re-structuring. An Information Security Management System (ISMS) offers the suitable framework
for setting up effective and uniform security pro-cesses, while implementing the necessary tech-nology and organization measures. This enables certification that demonstrates reliability – a feature that is increasingly important in the age of dynamic markets. T-Systems offers security with a system. Contact us.
