Flam Home Solutions Success Stories Technology We are connecting data worlds. The global volume of data is doubling every year. Due to cloud and mobile computing, the next IT revolution is already in full swing. Still, encrypting large amounts of uncompressed data is tremendously costly in terms of time and money. But above all, Big Data also poses new challenges to IT security, particularly in highly sensitive industries. More than ever companies need a protecting wall for their critical data, one that will also protect them against exploding costs. A digital limit. Since 1985, limes datentechnik gmbh has been an authority in the fields of cryptography and data compression – and the FLAM product family an internationally accepted standard for efficient, safe, and sustainable handling of data. For decades, end-to-end security has been our yardstick. That is why banks, stock exchanges, tax authorities, as well as industrial and telecommunications companies put their trust in us. Our customers benefit in two ways: from a solid grown structure and openness at the same time. For FLAM can communicate with all open standards, mediates between different file formats, and features, of course, full network capability.. We are connecting data worlds. limes®: efficiency at the limit of possibility. Support Contact Imprint Trademarks

Flam Home Solutions Success Stories Technology Compress and encrypt Archive and search Convert and migrate Unmatched efficiency. Simultaneous converting, compressing, and encrypting is the basic principle on which FLAM operates. Since it uses a single pass and touches every byte just once, processor time and therefore cost are kept extremely low. Moreover, FLAM can control this process in a way making it look as if the respective application encrypts the data it creates und decrypts the data it processes without being aware of it. This allows meeting many security standards (like PCI DSS) ) without changes to the applications. This is particularly true with stored data basing on formats with high redundacy such as XML. They can be compressed by a factor of 10 or more and kept accessible but protected against manipulations, while this fact is entirely transparent to the application. Progam run times are thereby reduced proportionally, since our algorithms use less CPU time than the extra time it would take to write the uncompressed data to storage. By means of the FLIES componens of FLAM the compressed and encrypted stored data can be managed in a simple manner. They can be rekeyed periodically, they can be searched, and combinations of results can be composed as needed. All this does not require access to the actual data contents. This allows building secure archives which can be operated by a third party without any risk. Support Contact Imprint Trademarks
