Security
Reliable IT operations thanks to robust security architecture and high standards for access protection and encryption
IT security is of existential importance – and at the same time a prerequisite for successful digitization
IT security is essential for digital transformation. According to Bitkom, cyberattacks caused a total loss of 266 billion euros to the German economy in 2024. Companies need a resilient IT security architecture to protect themselves. Many topics are relevant in this context, including data and intellectual property security, compliance requirements, verification obligations for product liability or the mapping of role and permission rights in user management. CONTACT Elements allows you to fulfil these requirements. Proven security concepts and powerful software solutions enable secure end-to-end digitalization of your business processes.

Robust IT security architecture for reliable operation
CONTACT Element’s security architecture is based on current standards and preconfigurations. These ensure secure system operation and provide protection against cyberattacks. Our reliable incident management process allows fast responses to security incidents. With its component architecture and transparent configuration and software change processes, Elements also helps organizations to meet IT security requirements and document changes. Event logging and monitoring interfaces assist with integration into an existing information security management system (ISMS).

Reliable encryption for secure data transmission
Users and the system communicate via the tap-proof HTTPS protocol. Similarly, data exchange between system components is also protected by HTTPS transport encryption. CONTACT Elements uses the proven Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption protocol to secure data during transmission. The platform utilizes the current TLS 1.3 standard with Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) and the Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data (AEAD) method. AES-GCM encryption is used for this. It guarantees the confidentiality, authenticity and integrity of the data. The HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) mechanism protects your company from threats such as downgrade attacks or session hijacking.
