The KAEMI Year 2023: A Look Back at Milestones and Projects
The time has come: 2023 is drawing to a close. Join us for a look back at KAEMI's past year:
IT security reached new technological milestones, and with the help of the solution developed by Cloudflare , KAEMI decisively countered "Rapid Reset" and implemented the fix for customers. New team members are bringing fresh energy into our company.
You may also have met us at IT-SA together with Cloudflare, or kept your calendar free for our summer party to discuss the latest developments in the IT industry with experts.
If you missed anything, join us now for our KAEMI year in review.
IT security is stronger than ever thanks to state-of-the-art
security concepts
IT security was never better than in 2023. That is nothing new to you if you already benefit from the most modern security concepts for your networks. If not, here is a short summary of what changed:
In 2023, KAEMI was able to decisively improve the network security of our business partners through the use of Zero Trust concepts.
No connection attempt is trusted naively. Requiring every user to be identified, combined with clear rules for sharing data, massively increases your connection and data security.
Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) has changed corporate network security, and with it our approach to ensuring secure access to business applications.
Taken together, these advances mean our partners' companies are better protected against attacks than ever before.
The so-called "Rapid Reset" incident this past year proved that clearly.
Fast & effective action against the DDoS attack that made the rounds in the media
Numerous media outlets reported on the so-called "Rapid Reset" incident. Countless corporate networks in the DACH region were paralyzed by thousands of requests per second, and websites were overloaded.
Our partner Cloudflare quickly found a way to close the vulnerability in the HTTP2 protocol responsible for it.
"Rapid Reset" was meant to make servers unreachable through a massive flood of requests, but after an intervention of just 30 minutes by our team, combined with Cloudflare's solutions, our customers were on the safe side.
Were you part of it?
This year, too, we had the most fun in personal exchanges with you. Protecting networks successfully is one thing; networking in person is quite another.
Perhaps you remember meeting us at IT SA? Together with Cloudflare, we had countless interesting conversations at our booth.
… or you joined our summer party as a valued business partner or simply as a friend of the company, and listened to fascinating talks on IT security with us and our team.
The KAEMI team keeps on growing
This year, we are especially pleased that our KAEMI team has continued to grow. Every new team member has already moved our company forward enormously and enriched our culture with fresh energy, new perspectives, and another voice.
That is why, internally, we can hardly wait to take on new challenges together in 2024 and to make sure, together, that our partners are set up for the future.
Heading into the future together in 2024
We thank everyone for a productive, exciting, and successful 2023 and wish you a good start to the new year.
The course for the future is already set, and we hope to carry out exciting projects with you again next year, keep up the productive exchange, and further improve IT security.
After all, you cannot implement a guardian angel — but you can implement a secure network.
