Security & digital sovereignty

Your data. Your processes.
Your control.

ADAM combines secure operations with digital sovereignty – through controlled data flows, flexible deployment models and clear rules for data, AI and future development.

Security is the foundation

Security is not enough when dependency remains.

Many enterprise applications protect data well from a technical perspective. Yet dependencies can still emerge that make a future change or independent development unnecessarily difficult.

Data remains hard to move

Exports, formats and handovers are not considered from the beginning.

Processes become proprietary

Critical workflows remain permanently tied to individual features or providers.

Change becomes expensive

Adjustments and system changes become technically and commercially difficult.

Our understanding

For us, digital sovereignty means that you can digitize quickly without giving up control of your data, processes and future development.

Four pillars

Control is not a single feature.

It is created through clear decisions about data, operations, technical safeguards and the responsible use of AI.

01

Data sovereignty

Storage location, access and handover are considered transparently from the start.

  • Clear data and system boundaries
  • Traceable access paths
  • Export and handover by design
02

Controlled operations

Operations, responsibilities and system boundaries follow your requirements.

  • Flexible deployment models
  • Defined responsibilities
  • Integration with existing systems
03

Security by design

Identities, permissions and data flows are considered in the architecture.

  • Roles & permissions
  • Logging & traceability
  • Backup, updates & recovery
04

AI under control

Data sources, models, permissions and human approvals are defined intentionally.

  • Defined data sources
  • Human approvals
  • Configurable models & providers

Technical security fields

Security becomes verifiable.

The security concept addresses the technical and organizational fields that are relevant to your specific deployment.

Identity & Access

Roles, permissions and responsibilities

Auditability

Traceability of relevant system activities

Data Protection

Protection and control along data flows

Resilience

Backup and recovery processes

AI Governance

Rules for access to models and data

Operations

Aligned update and operating processes

The specific measures depend on the selected deployment model and use case.

Deployment models

As much control as your organization needs.

Not every organization needs the same setup. We align operations, isolation and extensibility with your IT and governance requirements.

01

Start efficiently

Managed

For a fast start without operating the infrastructure yourself.
02

Increase isolation

Private

For higher requirements regarding isolation and infrastructure.
03

Integrate individually

Enterprise

For extensive control over operations and future development.

The specific setup and service boundaries are defined together during the architecture review.

Exit readiness

What happens if our paths diverge?

Digital sovereignty proves itself when requirements, partners or strategies change – not when a contract is signed. That is why we clarify early how data, interfaces, operations and future development remain manageable.

Data export

How do you receive your data back in usable formats?

Documented interfaces

How do connected systems remain transparent and manageable?

Continued operation

What options exist when operating requirements change?

Future development

How are changes, rights and responsibilities defined?

Specific rights and options are documented transparently in the respective contract and deployment model.

Integration, not another silo

Existing systems remain systems of record.

ADAM is embedded into existing system landscapes. Leading systems remain in place where it makes sense. ADAM connects information, knowledge and workflows – reducing context switching, duplicate maintenance and shadow solutions.

Systems of record remain in place. ADAM connects knowledge and processes. People and AI share one point of access.
