Deutsche Telekom offers wiretapping protection for companies
Deutsche Telekom announced that it is helping companies to protect sensitive information with specialist technicians screening offices and conference rooms for eavesdropping technology and weak spots. X-rays of harmless-looking objects such as coffee pots, telephones and PC mouses are taken. The system examines USB sticks, electrical sockets and wires, scan hollow spaces with telescopic and endoscopic cameras and measure radio frequencies to find hidden transmitters. They can even detect unsecured DECT equipment. Deutsche Telekom’s wiretapping protection service is aimed at both DAX 30 companies and medium-sized enterprises that wish to protect confidential business information, for example when corporate acquisitions are being negotiated or bids for auctions are being prepared. Once the scan has been completed, the Deutsche Telekom experts provide customers with a report detailing the results. They also show companies how they can improve information and eavesdropping protection and draw up individual security concepts with them. Deutsche Telekom also offers training on how to handle top-secret company information and develop an awareness of attack strategies, in addition to providing advice during construction projects and building work.
