BSI Security Certification
Accelerated Security Certification (BSZ) for LANCOM 1930EF
The LANCOM 1930EF has received the security certificate in accordance with the BSZ testing procedure (“Accelerated Security Certification”). For this purpose, the Secure SD-WAN gateway has undergone a certification process lasting several months, which proves their high level of security as well as its robustness against attacks.
This certification by the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) gives companies and public authorities the certainty that their networks are optimally protected with LANCOM products and their digital sovereignty is strengthened.
The "Accelerated Security Certification" (German: "Beschleunigte Sicherheitszertifizierung", BSZ) confirms the security pledges of manufacturers regarding their products by means of an independent certificate. Through a series of tests (evaluation), the security capability (security target) committed to by the manufacturer is tested. Subsequent conformity tests confirm whether the committed security capabilities are actually provided. The actual effectiveness of the technical security measures/security capabilities and the cryptographic functions and procedures used in the product are examined for typical errors by penetration tests. In addition, the installation instructions are checked to see if they lead to a secure system when followed correctly. Part of the BSZ certificate is also a software update policy and a commitment to respond promptly to vulnerability reports.
There is a corresponding agreement between the BSI and the French ANSSI (Agence nationale de la sécurité des systèmes d'information) for the international recognition of IT security certificates. In principle, all CSPN certificates (Certification de sécurité de premier niveau) in Germany are accepted by the BSI and all BSZ certificates in France by the ANSSI.
BSI-certified router as the benchmark for your security standards
Due to its outstanding security features, the Secure SD-WAN gateway LANCOM 1930EF is ideal for cross-location networking wherever sensitive data is processed – including public and government networks, healthcare, insurers, and financial service providers – as well as for protecting companies and facilities that are targets for manipulation, sabotage, or theft of know-how.
The BSI-certified gateway
The Secure SD-WAN gateway with multi-WAN functionality is ideally suited for site networking in medium-sized and large enterprises as well as branch infrastructures with elevated security requirements. Through the parallel use of multiple Internet connections (Load Balancing), the LANCOM 1930EF additionally ensures ideal distribution of data traffic loads, effectively reducing network utilization.
Secure SD-WAN features enable centralized cloud management with secure network segmentation and virtualization, automated provisioning of secure VPN connections (Auto-VPN), and intelligent path control. The gateway is developed and manufactured in Germany according to the highest security and data protection standards. The firmware underlying the certification, LCOS 10.80 SU8, was developed at the company headquarters near Aachen (“Engineered in Germany”).
The application of BSZ-certified devices is recommended for all areas that have the highest demands on their IT security, such as:
- Companies with high security requirements (NIS2)
- Industrial facilities
- Critical infrastructures
Important building block for more digital sovereignty
Since its foundation, LANCOM has pursued a consistent anti-backdoor policy throughout its entire product portfolio. The LANCOM 1930EF with the firmware LCOS 10.80 SU8 was developed in Germany in accordance with the highest data protection standards.
IT security made in Germany
The trust mark "IT Security made in Germany" (ITSMIG) and certification by the German Federal Office for Information Security confirm the trustworthiness and the outstanding level of security. LANCOM is committed to ensuring that its products are free of backdoors and meets the stringent requirements of the amendment to the German IT Security Act (IT-Sicherheitsgesetz) regarding the trustworthiness of central IT components in critical infrastructures. This makes the LANCOM Secure SD-WAN gateways, in particular, important building blocks for more security, resilience, and digital sovereignty in business and administration.
