General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

The GDPR is an EU-wide law that governs the protection of personal data. It sets out how personal data must be collected, processed, stored, and protected.

As a German IT security provider specializing in network solutions, we develop our products in accordance with Germany’s highest data protection standards and guarantee that our software and hardware are free of backdoors. Naturally, all of our servers are located in Germany under our sole control and are GDPR-compliant.

We are holders of the TeleTrusT “IT Security made in Germany” trust mark. This quality mark gives OctoGate’s partners and customers the assurance that they are choosing IT security products that comply with strict German data protection guidelines and offer reliability.

No Backdoors Policy

Since the founding of OctoGate IT-Security Systems GmbH, we have complied with the government’s “No Backdoors Policy” and “No Spy” decree. We thereby guarantee that all our products and solutions have been developed in-house in Germany and are 100% free of security vulnerabilities or backdoors that could be used for manipulation, eavesdropping, or sabotage. We consider it our duty to protect the confidentiality and security interests of our clients and ensure that our hardware and software are free of functions that could compromise the integrity, confidentiality of data, and availability of the hardware and software by unauthorized third parties. In doing so, we also comply with all new supplementary contractual conditions for hardware procurement (EVB-IT), which were adopted by the German IT Planning Council of the Federal Government and the States.

NIS 2 Directive

The NIS 2 Directive requires certain entities across various sectors to implement network security measures, as they are classified as critical infrastructure (KRITIS). As a result, these entities must, among other things, conduct risk analyses and implement appropriate measures to minimize risk. The goal is to select proportionate technical and organizational measures to prevent disruptions and minimize or even prevent the impact of security incidents.

The illustration shows an example of a company with an OctoGate firewall installed. It is located centrally between physically separated networks and monitors all data traffic. Thanks to its compact size, the OctoGate Firewall Desk is the ideal quiet and energy-efficient desktop device; in this example, it secures the company’s branch office.

A VPN allows different locations to be connected, enabling employees to work from anywhere, such as from home. The solution also includes Wi-Fi access points that provide secure internet access for your employees. All access points are centrally controlled, configured, and monitored by the firewall.

OctoVPN

Easy to use – Strong encryption

Access your company’s data securely from anywhere with OctoVPN. With support for industry-leading VPN protocols—OpenVPN, WireGuard, and IPSec—it offers your company a flexible and reliable way to encrypt its internet connection and protect its online activities.

Expand your corporate network with the latest encryption technologies and enable your employees to collaborate seamlessly. Our VPN client management solution is designed for ease of use. With an intuitive interface, you can easily select servers, establish connections, and monitor your VPN status. Clients can be generated, downloaded, and installed via the menu.

OctoVPN is available as an optional module for our firewall solution.

OctoGate FileCloud

Working from Home Made Easy

OctoGate FileCloud is an integrated solution that enables your employees to store and manage files in a user-friendly way. Users can access their files via various platforms, such as the web GUI, mobile app, and Windows client. Additionally, synchronization between the local file system and the OctoGate Firewall is possible. With support for the SCP, SFTP, SSH, and WebDAV transfer protocols, as well as seamless integration into task management, it facilitates efficient collaboration within your organization.

The OctoGate FileCloud offers a distinct advantage, especially for remote work, as users can access their files from anywhere without needing to be physically connected to the corporate network. Files can be stored directly on the OctoGate firewall or a downstream file server, providing flexible storage and scalability based on your needs. In addition, the OctoGate FileCloud is easy to use and supports all file formats, further simplifying seamless collaboration and information sharing within your organization.

OctoGate FileCloud is available as an optional module for our firewall solution.

The UTM firewall continuously analyzes all network traffic and is designed to detect and block attack patterns and suspicious activity. Thanks to numerous security features, comprehensive network security is ensured. Updates are applied automatically while the system is running, ensuring you are always protected against the latest threats. Our firewall can also be operated virtually on Proxmox, Microsoft Hyper-V, or in the Telekom Cloud. Upon request, we can also supply the necessary hardware.

The OctoGate Desk stands out for its performance in a compact design. Our hardware—including a total of 4 ports, an SSD, and RAM—is densely packed into the available space. Not only is the OctoGate Desk compact, but it’s also affordable. This means even small businesses don’t have to compromise on security. The Desk Solution offers secure protection for 2, 5, or up to 10 users.

Our PoE switches are divided into Layer 2 Plus and Layer 3 PoE switches and offer you a wide range of options. A versatile port configuration via Gigabit RJ45 ports enables automatic detection of IEEE 802.3af PoE or IEEE 802.3at PoE+. Dynamic PoE power allocation and intelligent power management enable flexible power distribution across all ports. Additional switches in various models are available upon request from our sales team.

With the AX Access Point, you can avoid complicated cabling. It features two network ports that can be configured as a switch. One of them supports both PoE and the new 2.5 Gbps standard. Servers, PCs, and access points can thus be connected to each other quickly and easily. Once connected to the internal network, the access points automatically connect to the optionally available OctoGate firewall as well.
