Glossar

IT security refers to the measures and technologies used to protect IT systems, networks, applications, and data against unauthorized access, manipulation, loss, or disruption. It includes technical and organizational measures designed to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information and systems.

Practical example:
In logistics and automated data capture, IT security helps protect measurement data, master data, and system interfaces against unauthorized access or manipulation. Secure authentication, access controls, encrypted data transmission, and regular software updates can help ensure that data is reliably transferred between measurement systems, warehouse management systems, and other connected applications.
