Trusted solutions for telecom leaders

Modern companies operating in the information and communication technology (ICT) sector offer a wide range of services from providing communication channels and hosting client information resources to developing end-user applications and building large-scale systems serving billions of requests. ICT players actively rely on advanced IT solutions and business automation tools since their success directly depends on the technology.

Remote work formats have been in place for more than 15 years in this sector, having become commonplace. A typical ICT company employs great numbers of IT professionals and information security (IS) specialists who are directly involved in customer services, including application development. This means that businesses in this sector tend to have a more sophisticated IT infrastructure compared to any other sector of the economy.

Yet, since ICT products exist and function as part of information systems, any system disruption or data breach may cause significant harm to both product developers and their customers.

This is why ICT players are some of the most popular targets of cyberattacks. Attackers may aim both at internal information resources and customer-facing components.

Challenges

ICT companies require large-scale distributed information systems to develop IT products and provide IT services. These information systems are much more sophisticated than their counterparts in other sectors of the economy, even in the financial sector.

We believe that all ICT players share a few common information security threats and issues.

Vulnerabilities related to remote access to critical IT resources. ICT players traditionally rely on remote (including privileged) access to IT resources and components both for addressing internal tasks and serving customers.
Violations, including intentional actions, related to management of corporate IT components and provision of IT services to customers. When it comes to infrastructure management, it is relatively easy to do something wrong and cause a system failure. That said, finding the reasons behind such failures may prove quite hard.
Broken or lost electronic signature tokens. Since ICT companies have a distributed organizational structure and need to manage their documents electronically to serve all locations, including remote ones, a broken token can lead to downtime and, hence, financial losses.

Solution

Most attacks aimed at gaining access to corporate IT infrastructure target access control systems — in particular, the subsystem responsible for identification, authentication, and access control.

Axidian solutions can help address the following tasks relevant for ICT businesses:

Protect remote access to IT components by using mandatory strong authentication tools — Axidian Access and Axidian Key
Manage password requirements and monitor password use across various target systems — Axidian Access and Axidian Privilege
Enable the use of virtual and network smart cards: hardware tokens will be no longer required for gaining access to digital certificates — Axidian CertiFlow and Axidian AirCard Enterprise
Enable privileged user control, including monitoring the activities of technical support staff and contractor representatives, to prevent unauthorized access and mitigate the impact of failure: Axidian Privilege.

Axidian offers reliable solutions to protect your business from diverse cybersecurity threats. Axidian products incorporate a wide range of tools designed to protect and safely manage user access. In addition, our solutions can save cybersecurity experts’ time and boost their efficiency.

Since approximately 5 years now I’m working with Axidian quite successfully. First as my vendor client and next as a trusted innovative software partner. Now we are re-selling Axidian software as a Distributor for the EU and beyond. Often I met Axidian CEOs, CTO, Product Management, Partner Managers and System Engineers, on the the phone and even in person in London and Munich and always my feeling was that this is are smart people, an excellent organized company, straight forward thinking and | don’t have any doubt that together we will be very successful this decade in the 2020s on everything we target.

Customers get the best of both worlds — the world-class cybersecurity products of Axidian and the experience and expertise of the local cybersecurity landscape of Pointwest.

Volkan Duman

Information Technologies General Manager at vMind

As a result of the long-term laboratory tests and studies that we conducted, we believe that Axidian products should certainly be on the Turkish market. Thanks to our partnership with Axidian, we sought to expand the access control and certificate management market, which is located in a narrow profile in the country, as well as add value by transferring technology to our country. When we compare Axidian products with similar products, we can safely say that they contain much more different features and are more inclusive.

Marko Pust

I can confidently say that Axidian CertiFlow is one of the best and technologically enhanced products for managing digital certificates and smart cards on the EU market.
