\n\t\tDIVIS places high priority on safety in video systems for transshipment warehouse monitoring and embedded systems\n\t<\/h1>\n\t\t\t\t\"cyber-security-en\"\n\t

Protective measures, for example in the form of firewalls, against external hacker attacks on company IT systems are known and common. On the other hand, the need for security of internal connections to the outside is often underestimated. We want to inform you today about what DIVIS is doing for the “internal security” of your systems.<\/strong><\/p>\n\t

The problem<\/h3>\nWith digitalization and networking, technical evolution is opening up ever-widening possibilities and breaking down limitations in many areas, including video security technology.
\nUsers benefit from this in the form of extensive features in our video research software CargoVIS<\/a> and ParcelVIS<\/a>.\n

The development of new technologies has led to the widespread replacement of analogue solutions (formerly “CCTV systems<\/a>“) with IP-based video surveillance cameras. The new technology generally allows worldwide access to these systems and their data. In the field of video surveillance, this is a security weak spot that makes such a system vulnerable from the outside. To ensure safe operation, the networked IP cameras must therefore be protected against external access (= closed video system).<\/p>\nBut even within such a closed system there is still reason for caution.
\nSo-called Embedded Systems*, integrated and necessary for the operation of the used hardware of the installation, offer interfaces to other systems of the enterprise.
\nAccess is often barely or not regulated at all, which means there is virtually no internal protection against manipulation or misuse.\n

Especially in the sensitive area of \u200b\u200bvideo surveillance, this protection is extremely important, not only because the monitoring must comply with legal requirements.<\/p>\n

For cost reasons, data security in the selection of embedded systems is usually a secondary criterion behind price and functionality. Potential future attacks and thus weak spots are sometimes not known or not clear at the time of planning and design of the installation. The fact that virtually every internal system with external connections is subject to security risks often only starts playing a role once problems arise.<\/p>\n\t

*An Embedded System handles complex control and data processing tasks in a hardware device. Among other things, the embedded software is responsible for sensitive tasks such as data handling in the devices, control, monitoring, updating and remote maintenance.<\/em><\/p>\n

\n\t\tSolutions from DIVIS\n\t<\/h3>\n\tDIVIS places a strong emphasis on video security to enable the safe operation of your cameras in the corporate environment.<\/strong>
\nWe offer a variety of security solutions, from which a security concept suitable for your needs is set up already during the planning stage of a video system.<\/strong>\n

Physically separated video networks<\/h3>\n

For our video system solutions, the DIVIS technicians set up a separate camera network<\/a> in addition to the customer’s operational network.<\/p>\n

Each of the recorders we use has at least two network cards, each responsible for different networks (one of which is physically located in the customer network). Although the network cards are installed in the same recorder, so the networks are physically separated.<\/p>\n

At first glance, this separation may seem unnecessary. From a technical standpoint, however, this step is very important for the security of your own customer network.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n
