Case Study
System and security engineering for the certification of a critical IS
Industry
- Aerospace & Defence
Context
- We were integrated into a project to secure an isolated IS for the "Defence & Security" domain.
Challenge
The aim was to support a team in charge of maintaining security conditions and involved:
