The issue of cybersecurity is more relevant today than ever before. The number of attacks on companies is growing every day. The statistics say that in 2021, 46 percent of companies in Germany were hit by a cyberattack. This makes protecting computer systems and networks more important than ever. That is why we are giving the highest priority to this issue. Working in a development partnership with LANCOM Systems , we have developed a new type of VPN solution, one that is unique in the marketplace.
Optima service technicians can remotely access your machines in a secure and direct way across the firewalls, using encrypted VPN tunnels. This allows configurations to be changed and error messages to be verified. Through the use of SSL Inspection and Deep Packet Inspection Pace, scanning, filtering and application detection can be applied to encrypted data packets, and security specifications can be successfully implemented. Simultaneously, all data traffic from Optima to your networks is logged via the LANCOM Management Cloud, thereby enabling detailed monitoring. As a result, VPN remote maintenance is reliably and securely monitored.
On site, the firewall becomes the "gatekeeper" for the machine network. It regulates and reduces communication with the systems. The machine network is subdivided into several network segments. When the individual segments are accessed, the firewall verifies the authorization each time. In the same way as an entrance control, "access" into the corresponding area is either denied or approved. This means that your machine network is optimally protected against unauthorized access. In addition, you can connect or disconnect the VPN tunnel at any time, using an external access control in the form of a physical key switch.

What we have developed together is a solution that is entirely unique in the marketplace. Currently, such a high level of security for machines and systems can only be obtained with Optima and LANCOM Systems.
In collaboration with cybersecurity specialist LANCOM Systems, we have developed a new type of VPN solution for machines and systems. As a result, it is now possible to establish an even more secure connection with the systems installed on your site, and to maintain them remotely. The solution, which is the only one of its kind on the market, allows for VPN connections monitoring, protects the machine network at the customer's site with a firewall, and is particularly user-friendly.
