At HECHT, the motto is:
Data security is a top management priority but a team effort.
At HECHT, we continuously invest in three things: in our employees to constantly sharpen their skills in dealing with sensitive data, in clear, audited processes that make reliability measurable, and in our technology to always stay up-to-date with the latest security standards.
Because for us, one thing is certain: Data protection is the foundation of trust. Only when the security and confidentiality of your data are guaranteed at all times can we implement the complex, successful projects you expect from us – today and in the future.
Employees as the First Line of Defense
Every employee at HECHT is part of the “human firewall.” All colleagues have taken part in training sessions from Perseus Security – with topics such as:
- Recognizing Phishing & Social Engineering
Handling information in everyday work
How to react correctly in an emergency
Data protection according to GDPR
Security in the use of AI
The result: Everyone is sensitized and knows how to act in an emergency.
Our Promise: Your data is safe at HECHT - because we do more than the minimum
The threat from cyberattacks is real and omnipresent. A single successful hacker attack can shake an entire company to its core: Support requests remain unresolved, violating service level agreements; production chains come to a standstill, resulting in immense financial losses and delivery bottlenecks; and the trust of customers and partners erodes, often meaning irreparable damage to the company’s image. These are precisely the catastrophic scenarios we at HECHT want to prevent at all costs. That is why IT security is not just a technical necessity or a secondary issue for us, but an integral and fundamental component of our entire corporate strategy – rooted in every process and every decision.
Technology Always Up-to-Date
In addition to trained employees, we rely on modern hardware and secure systems:
Servers and work devices with current security patches
Firewalls, monitoring, and access rights for our networks
A new telephone system that improves communication and security.
This is how we ensure that we remain operational at all times – and that you, as a customer, are reliably supported.
