IT Security Guideline

Executive Management of computeruniverse (A brand of Cyberport SE) authored the IT security guideline below with the aim of protecting confidential company and customer information as well as of ensuring the permanent availability of all data and data processing systems.

The IT security guideline defines the intended IT security level needed to help the company fulfil its tasks. The IT security guideline summarises the company´s IT security objectives and the IT security strategies applied. It therefore is both a claim to and a confirmation of the fact that the required IT security level will be achieved at all strata of the business organisation.

• Compliance with statutory regulations and requirements
• Securing the continuity of the company´s internal processes
