Cyber security
Cyber security is critical to the secure digitalisation of industries. The ifm group of companies offers customised products for customer-specific digitalisation strategies - from the sensor to the cloud. Always with the security of your sensitive data in mind!
For cloud-based applications, ifm relies on a strong cloud service provider. Safety-related decisions are consistently implemented, monitored and further developed. Our security concept is based on established standards to ensure a high level of security.
