We did it again! Continuous quality at Promataconfirmed once again through a successful audit.

15.08.2024

Since the founding of Promata 43 years ago, it has been our highest goal to consistently deliver products and services that meet or even exceed customer requirements.

We are also proud that since our initial certification according to DIN EN ISO 9001 in 2001, we have received confirmation every year that our processes and company performance at all levels comply with legal and regulatory requirements.

This year, too, we have successfully passed our annual audit and are pleased to announce: We have once again met all requirements without any deviations!

The audit, which is conducted annually by an independent, accredited certification body, examines the effectiveness and efficiency of our internal processes and their continuous improvement. The successful certification confirms our commitment to the highest quality and customer satisfaction.

Quality management is an ongoing process. Every successfully completed audit is not only proof of our high standards but also a motivation to persist in working on our improvement. Our customers and business partners can continue to rely on Promata to uphold the highest quality standards in the future. We look forward to another year of strengthening and expanding these standards.

See you in 2025!

 

PS:

An essential area to consider in a company is data protection. Therefore, we train our Promata team in handling personal data and security regulations on a regular basis. Here are a few tips that can help improve data protection and better protect personal and sensitive data, both privately and in business:

General Tips

      1. Use strong passwords:

    • Create complex passwords consisting of a mix of letters, numbers, and special characters.
    • Use a unique password for each service.
    • Use a password manager to securely store and generate passwords.

      2. Two-factor authentication (2FA):

    • Enable 2FA for all accounts that support it to add an extra layer of security.

      3. Keep software and devices up to date:

    • Always keep operating systems, applications, and security software up to date to close security gaps.

      4. Be cautious with public Wi-Fi networks:

    • Avoid conducting sensitive transactions over public Wi-Fi.
    • Use a VPN (Virtual Private Network) to encrypt your data when accessing public networks.


Tips for handling personal data

      1. Principle of minimal disclosure:

    • Only disclose the most necessary personal information.
    • Ask yourself if the data entry is really necessary in each case.

      2. Data encryption:

    • Encrypt sensitive files and emails to protect them from unauthorized access.
    • Use tools like VeraCrypt to encrypt files and folders.

      3. Data backup:

    • Regularly back up important data and store it securely, separate from the main device.

      4. Review privacy settings:

    • Check and adjust privacy settings on social networks and other online services.
    • Limit the visibility of your personal information to only trusted contacts.


Tips for companies

      1. Training and awareness:

    • Regularly train your employees in handling personal data and security regulations.
    • Raise awareness among your team about phishing and other social engineering attacks.

      2. Create privacy policies:

    • Develop clear privacy policies and procedures.
    • Ensure that all employees are aware of and comply with these policies.

      3. Access restrictions:

    • Implement a role-based access control system to ensure that employees only access the data necessary for their work.

      4. Regular security reviews:

    • Conduct regular audits and penetration tests to identify and address security vulnerabilities.

      5. Review contracts with service providers:

    • Ensure that your service providers also comply with data protection laws and take appropriate security measures.
