TRiSOR Provides Comprehensive Security Coverage

This comprehensive security concept is unique in 2022 and offers customers the highest level of security for all stored valuables. TRiSOR's security concept includes the following elements:

• Burglary-proof safe system
• Protection against cyber-attacks
• Emergency power supply

Burglary-proof Safe System

When it comes to safe security, testing standards immediately come into play, allowing for a comparison of security measures. Our safe room is ECB-S certified and consists of a combination of reinforced concrete with special diamond drilling protection. This security standard is otherwise only occasionally found in the most modern bank safe deposit boxes. Our safe deposit box systems are produced by leading European suppliers in Germany.

To help you as our customer better understand these certifications, we break down the various standards and other designations below.

Testing Standards EN 14450 and EN 1143-1

The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is responsible for all European technical standards (EN), with the exception of telecommunications and electrical engineering. In the area of security cabinets, safes, vaults, and vault doors, the currently valid standards are:

• EN 14450, security cabinets level S1 and level S2. The VdS 2862 test certificate is considered equivalent. These safes are mainly used in the private sector. This purpose is also recognized in the insurance classification by property insurers. The coverage limit is between 5,000 euros and 20,000 euros. Insurers are unwilling to take on higher risks at these security levels.
• EN 1143-1, safes grade N/0 to grade VI, as well as vaults and vault doors up to resistance grade XIII. Insurers have set coverage limits from €10,000 to over €1 million.

And how is Security Tested?

The EN 14450 burglary protection test distinguishes between levels S1 and S2. For S1, a minimum of 2 SU and 40 TP must be achieved, and for level S2, at least 5 SU and 60 TP. SU stands for Security Units, and TP stands for Tool Points. SU is calculated from the working time and the tool coefficient. TP is calculated from the points of the tools used. The test also includes the lock quality test (EN 1300) and the extraction force test of the anchorage.

The EN 1143-1 uses the following designations. For each resistance and security class, a resistance value (RU) is defined, calculated from the type of tool and the duration of its application. The test includes at least one attack test for partial access and another for full access. The higher the resistance value, the higher the burglary protection. The higher the burglary protection, the higher the value that insurance companies are willing to cover in such a safe. The insurers' term for this value is the coverage limit.

Who Tests and What Do VdS and ECB-S Mean?

The Association of Property Insurers (predecessor of VdS Schadenverhütung) established the VdS 2450 guidelines. VdS is the most experienced in testing safes. Most German tests are conducted on-site at VdS in Cologne.

FuP / ESSA – ECB-S:

Since 2006, the former FuP has been operating under ESSA e. V. FuP (Research and Testing Community for Safes) introduced its testing body ECB-S in 2002. Tests can be conducted by several accredited testing centers in Europe. The ECB-S test label ensures that even tests outside the VdS testing center have comparable safety ratings. Safes with ECB-S and VdS test labels are recognized by all insurers. Additionally, there are other accredited testing centers. Almost every EU country has at least one testing center.

Fireproof Safe – Protection Against Fire Threats

Following the adage "misfortune rarely comes alone," there are also safes certified for fire resistance to protect documents, data, and data carriers from fire. Whether as a private individual or a business, important papers and files belong in a fireproof safe. The same applies to your data, be it irreplaceable video and photo recordings in the private sector or daily data backups in your business. For a company, saved data can be crucial for survival, enabling you to restart after a fire without a catastrophe.

When is a Safe Fireproof?

In Germany, VdS and ECB-S test and certify safes with the label "fireproof" or fire protection. The standards EN 15659 and EN 1047-1 are the basis for fireproof safe tests, conducted using the so-called Braunschweig test. This fireproof safe test consists of two parts: the fire resistance test and the fire shock and drop test.

Braunschweig Test

The Braunschweig test, developed by the University of Braunschweig, is a standardized quality testing procedure for safes. The test demonstrates that safes can withstand fire, explosions, earthquakes, floods, or strong magnetic fields (important for data carriers, hard wallets). The Braunschweig test consists of two load tests that may vary slightly depending on the safe's quality class. First, the fire resistance of the safe is tested by exposing it to 1090°C for one or two hours, during which the internal temperature must not exceed a permissible limit. The test also includes a drop test, where the heated safe is dropped from 9.15 meters onto a gravel bed and then reheated to 840°C for 30 minutes. If the safe's deformation is within defined tolerance limits, it passes the Braunschweig test and receives a certification seal, such as ECB-S, providing customers with a reliable guide for safe purchases. Many insurers insist that their customers use safes that have passed the Braunschweig test.

Double Security - Fireproof Safe with Theft Protection

There are also safes that protect against both theft and fire, providing double security for stored valuables. Fireproof safes (LFS) according to EN 15659 offer certified fire protection for 30 or 60 minutes, requiring a body made of high-quality fire protection material that also protects against burglars and theft. This high level of security comes at a price, so it is essential to weigh the necessary protection for your valuables.

Fire Protection Certificate for Private and Commercial Use

In the private sector, safes do not need a fire protection certificate for reimbursement by home insurance. Here, the focus is on protecting the contents. Therefore, everyone must decide for themselves what they want to protect from fire. A candle can quickly catch fire, or the Christmas tree can go up in flames.

A good safe can withstand flames for a few minutes until the fire brigade arrives. However, after the fire is extinguished, the safe remains in the smoldering remnants for some time, which can damage the contents, especially paper or data carriers.

The situation is different in the commercial sector, where important documents and data carriers are stored in safes. Here, insurance companies require fire protection certificates.

As a professional operator of safe facilities with numerous secure deposit boxes at each TRiSOR location, you, as a customer, can rely on all certification being in place. More about the ECB-S and VdS labels can be found here.

Even though safes and safe systems are secured like a fortress, another modern threat exists: cybercrime. Let's discuss cybercrime.

Cybercrime is a Widespread Threat. TRiSOR Locations are Protected Against Hacker Attacks.

Cybercrime - What is it?

Cybercrime is one of the fastest-evolving criminal phenomena today. Offenders adapt flexibly to technological and social developments, operate globally, and target financially lucrative opportunities. The Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) annually publishes information on cybercrime in the Federal Situation Report. Cybercrime has become a professional business, with numerous marketplaces on the Internet, especially the dark web, offering illegal products like drugs, weapons, stolen data, identities, and services for committing cybercrimes – known as Cybercrime-as-a-Service. The police distinguish between "cybercrime in the narrow sense" (crimes against the internet, data networks, IT systems, or their data) and "cybercrime in the broader sense" (crimes committed using IT).

Cybercrime in the broader sense includes crimes that could also be committed in the analog world, such as drug trafficking. Cybercrime in the narrow sense involves high-tech crimes requiring advanced technical investigations by the police or other authorities like the BKA. The internet becomes both the crime scene and the investigation space. Common computer crimes include DDoS attacks, phishing (e.g., tricking email addresses and other personal data), and locking PCs and entire IT infrastructures with trojans that render the system unusable. The perpetrators then demand ransom for the data. Without the internet, these crimes would not be possible.

How Does TRiSOR Defend Against Cybercrime Attacks?

For security reasons, we cannot provide comprehensive details or disclose security-relevant information. However, TRiSOR ensures the secure operation of all locations through multiple protected and encrypted networks. TRiSOR networks and information technology operate independently of any internet connection.

Without Power, Everything is Nothing

Critics may argue that all safe systems require continuous power to operate, questioning whether power supply is a security issue. TRiSOR has considered this and operates a mobile generator as part of the comprehensive security concept

TRiSOR's Emergency Power Transporter Ensures Access to the Safe Deposit Box Even During a Blackout

Autonomous access to your valuables in the safe deposit box around the clock is our customer promise, even when the power grid reaches its limits in autumn and winter. All TRiSOR safe deposit box systems already have an internal emergency power supply to ensure the security of valuables in the event of a blackout. To enable uninterrupted regional operation, we now provide a mobile, high-performance emergency generator. This ensures that even in the extreme case of a blackout, the digitally controlled safe systems continue to operate, allowing customers access to their safe deposit boxes.

"Whether in Berlin, Munich, or other locations, our employees are quickly on-site with our emergency power transporter if the power supply could fail," emphasizes Justus Westerburg, Managing Director of TRiSOR. "It ensures regional supply for many days, if not weeks."

Valuables triple protected

This triple protection deters perpetrators and successfully ensures that TRiSOR locations do not appear in any police crime statistics. Whether criminals show up with blowtorches, start DDoS attacks, or launch other attacks from the world of cybercrime or the virtual space, your valuables are safe at TRiSOR.
