Rohde & Schwarz Cybersecurity ensures high security and enables digital sovereignty

Cybersecurity solutions cover all areas of security in information and communication technology. Cybersecurity follows the technical development and is therefore never to be understood statically. It is precisely through networking that the scope of the term expands. Different protection goals are relevant here. The attempt is made to reduce the danger for these objectives by means of appropriate protective measures. These are basically 3 basic safety objectives (C-I-A):

• Confidentiality: protection against unauthorized access to information during transport
• Integrity: ensuring that manipulation of the information is detectable by the recipient
• Availability: Users can access a network such as the Internet and the information and communication services there at any time.

You can find more information on this in the whitepaper Powerful and secure data transmission as a core element of IT security

Of course, there are many measures that can be taken. Here are just a few of them:

• Use strong-passwords: Minimum length are 12 symbols as well as special characters
• Use a safe browser like our product R&S®Browser in the Box
• Keep you software up to date
• When working from home: be sure to be secure there. Read our eBook Home Office Security – on the security of telework
• Check out security blogs like from Bruce Schneier or Hacker News to be up to date about current security breaches

According to the German Federal Office for Information Security, these are the top 5 cyber threats:

• Ransomware campaigns
• Malware
• Phishing-Mails: Here more about this social engineering technique in our news article
