The development of information and communication technologies is a key driver of the EWO Infinite Group’s business.
All technical solutions used by EWO Infinite Group—to provide learning programs and technological tools to its clients—are secured to protect its operations. Antonia Muller, Head of IT, is responsible for ensuring this.
What exactly is IT?
IT stands for Information Technology. A company’s IT resources are defined as all of its computer-based tools: software applications and databases, licenses, desktop and mobile workstations, peripherals, etc.
I am responsible—among other things—for ensuring the proper use of all these information processing procedures and resources, in compliance with the various regulations and laws in effect. For example, laws on the protection of personal data, including the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (LPD) and its implementing ordinance (OLPD), as well as the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The law aims to protect the privacy and fundamental rights of individuals whose data is being processed.
In addition to ensuring the safety of EWO Infinite’s operations, what major initiatives have you implemented for the company?
Various projects are currently underway at EWO Infinite, but the priority is the launch of the E-Store, which will be one of our key drivers for international expansion. At the same time, we are exploring a project related to cybersecurity. This project will be based on the three pillars of confidentiality, integrity, and availability (CIA). We are incorporating elements of the ISO 27001 and 27005 standards, as well as GDPR regulations, into this project.
We are also working on continuous improvements by implementing support tools such as dashboards, data analytics, etc.
Can you tell us about Single Sign On?
SSO stands for Single Sign-On. The service authenticates the end user across all applications for which the user has been granted access rights and eliminates the need for future password requests for individual applications during the same session.
This solution is designed to make it easier to access all of our services and tools. It will be integrated into the ecosystem set up for the E-store.
