Highest security standards
MB connect line has adopted a broad approach by certifying the entire organisation
MB connect line has adopted a broad approach by certifying the entire organisation. The ISMS spans all business facets, including the development and manufacture of routers, portal solution operations, and sales support.
According to Timo Bednarek, "ISO/IEC 27001 not only means data protection for our customers, but above all greater availability of our systems and solutions." The organisation systematically identifies risks, reduces potential failure points, and ensures operational stability through established incident and emergency processes.
Cloud-based applications
The certification benefits customers by offering secure and dependable solutions for industrial communication, including secure remote access, and cloud-based applications.
Beyond ISO/IEC 27001, MB connect line holds other certifications that affirm its commitment to quality and security, as confirmed by TÜV Nord. This structured development process prioritises cybersecurity from the start, building robust solutions designed to protect industrial control systems.
Electronic communication components
Certified by TÜV SÜD, MB connect line's adherence to ISO 9001 supports a quality management system for developing, manufacturing, and distributing electronic communication components for industrial applications. This certification enhances transparency in operations, reduces errors, improves customer satisfaction, and aids in continually optimising workflows.
Even with the ISO 27001 certification now achieved, MB connect line continues advancing its security strategy. Current efforts include the certification of their new router product generation according to IEC 62443-4-2. This step is part of preparations for upcoming Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) requirements in 2027, set to introduce new EU security standards for connected products. Through ISO 27001 and additional certifications, MB connect line conveys a strong commitment to innovation, quality, and reliable information security.
MB connect line is pleased to announce that its Information Security Management System (ISMS) is now certified according to ISO/IEC 27001:2022, the internationally recognised standard for information security.
The certification, conducted by the renowned certification body TÜV SÜD, marks a significant milestone for their company and highlights their ongoing commitment to protecting sensitive data and ensuring the highest security standards.
Secure data communication
“The ISO 27001 certification is more than just a compliance requirement for us. It demonstrates that information security is an integral part of our corporate culture at MB connect line,” says Timo Bednarek, Managing Director of MB connect line.
For their customers, this certification means one thing above all: integrity, confidentiality, and availability of their data – whether in secure data communication, remote access of machines, or Industrial IoT applications.
The responsible handling of information and systems is a top priority for MB connect line. Therefore, their company is also registered as an “important entity” in the NIS-2 portal of the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) – further proof of their consistent commitment to cyber and information security.
Strategic and critical suppliers
At MB connect line, information security is an integral part of all business processes. Their ISMS ensures that risks are identified early, evaluated carefully, and consistently minimised. The ISO 27001 certification confirms that we implement the highest standards in key areas of information security, including:
- Risk management and security controls
- Well-designed and proven backup concepts for all critical systems
- Access protection for sensitive data and systems
- Employee training and awareness programs for information security
- Security commitments from strategic and critical suppliers
- Continuous improvement of the security processes
Highest security standards
When defining the scope of the certification, they deliberately chose a comprehensive approach: the entire organisation has been certified. This means the ISMS covers all business areas – from development and manufacturing of their routers to the operation of their portal solutions, as well as sales and support.
“ISO/IEC 27001 not only means data protection for our customers, but above all greater availability of our systems and solutions,” explains Managing Director Timo Bednarek. “We systematically identify risks, minimise potential causes of failure, and ensure that our services remain stable even in the event of disruptions through clearly defined incident and emergency processes.”
Cloud-based applications
Their customers therefore benefit from secure and reliable solutions for industrial communication. Whether secure remote access, connected machines, or cloud-based applications – MB connect line ensures that data is protected at all times and that the highest security standards are maintained.
In addition to ISO/IEC 27001, MB connect line is proud of several other important certifications that underline their commitment to quality and security. This certification by TÜV Nord confirms their structured development process in which cybersecurity plays a central role from the very beginning. Security requirements are systematically integrated into the development of their products, forming the basis for robust and trustworthy solutions designed to protect industrial control systems.
Electronic communication components
Certified by TÜV SÜD, this standard confirms their established quality management system for the development, manufacturing, and distribution of electronic communication components for industrial applications. ISO 9001 increases transparency in operational processes, reduces error rates, improves customer satisfaction, and supports the continuous optimisation of our workflows.
Even after achieving ISO 27001 certification, they continue to further develop their security strategy. They are already working on their next certification project: upcoming router product generation will be certified according to IEC 62443-4-2.
This represents an important step in preparation for the upcoming requirements of the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), which will introduce new security standards for connected products in the EU starting in 2027. With ISO 27001 and their additional certifications, they are sending a clear message: MB connect line stands for innovation, quality, and trustworthy information security.
