OpenTAS’ security-first approach

In the digitalized and networked world, holistic protection of systems and data is indispensable. Since cybersecurity emerges as the number one priority in terminal management globally, organizations face the complex challenge of meeting increasing regulatory requirements, countering cyber risks, and optimizing process efficiency simultaneously.

OpenTAS lives and breathes security, recognizing its fundamental importance to the industry. Through comprehensive security measures, companies can achieve compliance and protect their mission-critical business processes from ever-evolving cyber threats.

Securing your digital transformation

As terminals embrace automation and digitalization to enhance efficiency, their exposure to cyber threats increases exponentially. Our security-first approach transforms these challenges into opportunities, protecting your environment while enabling innovation.

Drawing on over 40 years of terminal automation expertise and our leadership in cloud transformation, we deliver security knowledge that is precisely tailored to your requirements. By combining our pioneering work in autonomous terminals with cutting-edge cybersecurity expertise, we ensure your terminal operations remain both secure and future-ready. Partner with us to navigate current and future security challenges with confidence.

OpenTAS ISO 27001 certified:

OpenTAS has achieved ISO 27001 certification, demonstrating its commitment to robust information security management through comprehensive controls across access management, risk assessment, data protection, and security monitoring – validating its adherence to international standards for protecting sensitive information.

Innovation – Protection – Resilience

Our security advisory service and guidance with the focus on Governance, Risk and Compliance are designed to protect highly sensitive data and business processes, meet regulatory requirements, and strengthen organizational resilience. With a clear focus on developing and optimizing internal security strategies, we support the building of a solid foundation for sustainable security.

Our approach:

  • OpenTAS context and strategy
    Building on our extensive background in the oil, gas, and chemical sector, as well as our in-depth knowledge of our OpenTAS system, we analyze the specific requirements and security objectives.
  • Tailored security concepts
    Taking into account relevant regulatory requirements, best practices and the unique demands of terminal management, we propose security strategies that align with the organization and market such as custody transfer and digital data exchange.
  • Risk mitigation through proven processes
    We strive to mitigate risks through proven processes and policies. From secure handling of transactional and operational data to implementing holistic risk management for terminal logistics, we apply proven methods to minimize vulnerabilities. This ensures continuous operations, helps meet compliance obligations, and protects both IT and OT environments.
  • Strengthening security via process management (iBPA)
    By integrating our iBPA solution into the security approach, we ensure that critical policies and procedures are clearly defined, systematically managed, and continuously improved. This holistic process management helps maintain consistency, measure outcomes, and adapt to evolving security demands.

Practical benefits for the organization:

By ensuring that all dimensions of information security remain up to date, our consultative thinking emphasizes clear accountability and effective security processes that integrate seamlessly into everyday operations.

Through this strategic approach, security measures are implemented sustainably, enabling long-term protection without unnecessary complexity.

Put your security architecture to the test

With our PROsecure approach, we systematically analyze the existing security landscape. We identify improvements, assess the current threats, and show how to optimize the security posture with a sustainable approach.

Our main focuses:

  • Risk analysis:
    Identification of sensitive data and processes that are particularly important for the company. We assess the impact security incidents would have on the business.
  • Vulnerability management:
    We review internal and external risks that could arise from inadequate policies, lack of training, or unsafe work practices.
  • Regulatory requirements:
    We analyze the extent to which the processes meet the requirements of regulations and show the gaps.

The advantage:
A comprehensive overview and roadmap for the cybersecurity strategy with clearly prioritized recommendations for action, based on proven standards, best practices and our many years of experience.

See our vision:

From an automated to an autonomous Terminal

opentas-autonomous-terminal-header

In an autonomous terminal, all processes operate independently and seamlessly adapt to real-time data inputs. With advanced automation, predictive analytics, and AI-driven decision-making, these facilities can proactively respond to shifts in the supply chain, optimize resource allocation, and enhance operational efficiency. As integral parts of the value chain, autonomous tank storage facilities will enable rapid adjustments to supply and demand fluctuations, reduce human intervention to essential oversight, and ensure continuous optimization by digitalizing and interconnecting every workflow at the site. This transformation not only enhances safety and reliability but also paves the way for a resilient, future-ready terminal operation.
