Open Source Security Solutions Protecting Employees and Data in Public Institutions
Introduction
The aim of our research was to achieve a higher level of data security and availability, while reducing effort. To this end, the feasibility and possible implementation of a centralized security layer was examined based on our experience with intensive computing, anti-virus and encryption. The result is a layer which controls, verifies, and encrypts any and all communication that takes place on client devices (USB sticks, laptops, etc.). OpenSecurity is provided under a license that allows both public verification and customization within heterogeneous ICT-system landscapes. Achievements of the research activities:
- Advanced safety and safety awareness of citizen
- Protecting of employees from unintentional disclosure of sensitive data
- Preventing uncontrolled data exchange
