Germany to deploy QGroup’s security solution
QGroup, a partner of General Dynamics Mission Systems, has been contracted by the German armed forces to deploy and maintain QTrust Server security appliances for their IT networks, General Dynamics announced on 15 February.
QGroup’s QTrust Server is based on General Dynamics’ PitBull operating system. The contract will see QGroup and General Dynamics provide capabilities to improve the security of the German armed forces' infrastructure.
PitBull provides multi-level security from internal and external threats by providing access and integrity controls required to protect information at multiple levels. The system's compartmentalisation ensures the integrity and control of data is maintained, while data spillage is contained in the event of a breach.
Thomas Blumenthal, chief executive officer, QGroup, said: ‘Our strong partnership with General Dynamics Mission Systems enables us to create highly secure products for the needs of our customers which provide a perfect balance of security and functionality in simple to administer products.
‘Their knowledge and experience combined with our expertise enable us to support our long lasting customer Bundeswehr to reach a new level of security inside their infrastructure. We are convinced that this is only the first step to be used as blueprint for future projects.’
