Protecting Information – Ensuring Corporate Values and Business Success
Since basically everything we do in the business environment is based on information, WAGO counts information security among the most important strategic tasks. The secure handling of information protects company values and directly affects business success and further growth.
Information security's relevance is increasing due to digitalization and the rise of the networking of data, systems and machines – effective protection mechanisms are indispensable for IT security. Therefore, our value creation processes are aligned with modern security standards and consistently optimized to make them resilient.
Thinking Holistically about Information Security
We pursue the goal of protecting sensitive information of any kind: In addition to operational and business secrets and strategic data, we protect personal information and other expertise processed by WAGO – regardless of format. Information security includes physical and verbal information in addition to electronic information.
Our goal is to adequately secure all information assets against unlawful access, theft, loss, unauthorized disclosure, misuse, unwanted change and destruction. We achieve this by pursuing the three main goals of information security with our Information Security Management System: confidentiality, integrity and availability of information.
