Hanwha Techwin Europe has been certified as compliant with the UK government-backed Cyber Essentials scheme.
In gaining the certification, the video surveillance brand has proven that it has procedures in place to minimise the threat of a successful attack on the company’s IT infrastructure and laptops used by employees working remotely.
The Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy set up the scheme to help organisations protect themselves against the most common types of cyber-attacks.
“We are constantly evaluating and updating our IT security in order to negate the risk of any disruption to our business or our business partners,” said Bob (H.Y.) Hwang Ph.D., Managing Director, Hanwha Techwin Europe. “Our cybersecurity programme is a key element of our ‘WE MOVE with trust’ philosophy and reflects the proactive stance we are taking to protect confidential data.
“Beyond the scope of the Cyber Essentials scheme, we remain vigilant to ensure our Wisenet cameras, recording devices and software entrusted to protect property, people and assets are equipped to minimise the threat from cyber attacks.
“We have a sustained testing and monitoring programme designed to identify evolving new threats to the integrity of our solutions. We are determined to be open and honest with our customers when new cybersecurity threats are identified and will move quickly to develop further advanced versions of our firmware to combat them.”
