In response to a growing demand for IT security solutions, G&D held an “in-house” Forum to set up cooperative ventures with innovative starts-ups.
Giesecke & Devrient (G&D) teamed up with Munich Network, a business network of technology enterprises to set up the 1st Security Software Forum. 15 start-up companies were invited to present their ideas and solutions in IT security technology to an audience of investors and G&D managers. The rationale the Forum is not only to provide the young entrepreneurs with a platform where they can talk with potential partners, but also to investigate potential synergies with G&D. The applications presented included digital identification technologies and systems for the management of access and user rights (baimos technologies), analysis programs for identifying security gaps in Web applications (art of defense), cryptography programs to prevent data leakage in portable storage media (Splitstreem) and technologies to protect companies against unauthorized access to confidential documents, even beyond company boundaries (Brainloop). Security in mobile communications, especially in the field of mobile payment systems, was a further focus of interest.
