CEO Statement

Which sentence best describes the company’s mindset?
Compromises on data security are strictly unacceptable.

 

What do you think is the source of innovation and good teamwork?
Imagine, how incredibly fulfilling it would be, if you reach a big goal by creating something complex and sophisticated. Something challenging and revolutionary new that you can be really proud of! And all of this together with friends or good colleagues that support and appreciate you. In my opinion, this is something everybody should experience and is a main source for innovation and good teamwork.

 

How does the company handle mistakes that are quite common in innovative work processes?
It is clear that humans make mistakes, especially in processes of growth and learning.  So I think that’s a necessary element of the overall goal.

 

The end in itself submits to the goal.

ASDS is well equipped with all tools and facilities for realising complex projects in our highly specialised field of application. The toolchain for requirement-based engineering and development is customised for every project in order to meet the project-specific needs. Visualisation is key: The development of complex crypto systems requires a stringent top-down engineering approach. We have optimised our development flow and the according toolchains, in order to visualise all crucial architectures. This is essential for establishing a common understanding – within the ASDS project team and together with the customer.

Quality

Over the years, Aerospace Data Security GmbH (formerly DSI Datensicherheit GmbH) has developed a Quality Management System (QMS) which is specifically adapted to our main areas of activity in aerospace and information security. The QMS permeates all aspects of ASDS’s management structure and core project life cycle processes ranging from pre-development and requirements analysis to design, implementation, verification and supporting processes, as well as of course quality assurance.

Thanks to the ISO 9001:2015 certified QMS a high level of organisational clarity and effective project control is achieved.
