Yet another achievement: Our subsidiary Milkron has been ISO 27001 certified – which brings the Group-wide cyber security strategy another huge step forward.
The milestone was preceded by intensive preparatory work, with the project team spending months analysing the company’s processes. Wherever potential vulnerabilities were identified, the processes had to be adapted accordingly or replaced with new ones. “Fortunately, we didn’t have to do it all on our own,” explains project manager Ingo Georg. “The Corporate Cyber Security team from Krones headquarters gave us support and coaching throughout. The expert assistance they provided enabled us to meet this huge challenge.”
It doesn’t end with the audit
The team also completed the two-day audit, which was conducted by TÜV SÜD in February, in partnership. “I am very proud of just how much passion everyone involved put into the project,” explains Milkron Managing Director Ernst Wagemann. “At the same time, we can’t rest on our laurels. The audit is not a one-off event. That’s why we in Cyber Security need to continue to be vigilant and to actually practise and adhere to the processes we have introduced.”
