Euralarm: The Next Step in Cybersecurity for Connected Alarm Systems

Alarm systems are essential for the economic success of almost all sectors of European markets.

​​​​​​​Since the corona pandemic introduced the world to the concept of "the new normal," nothing is normal anymore. A simple incident can be disastrous for something as vital as the supply chain as we have seen with the blockage of the Suez Canal. The essence of that chain is to give companies the certainty that raw materials and components are available in order to produce the finished goods.
