According to IPACSO, a prime example of this is G DATA's technological response to the Bad-USB threat scenario. The German IT security company was the only provider worldwide to immediately develop an effective security tool: USB Keyboard Guard. The European Commission supports and promotes IPACSO's activities.
"We have made it our mission to provide companies and end users with the best technologies for fending off cyber attacks," says Walter Schumann, CSO of G DATA CyberDefense AG. "In the fight against online criminals it is absolutely essential to quickly and flexibly respond to new attack scenarios, and that is what distinguishes G DATA as an IT security provider. We are therefore extremely pleased to have won the IPACSO award, which recognises our company's innovativeness."
