Cybersecurity and Information Security

At KARL STORZ, we always focus on the well-being of the patient and the best possible support for the doctor. As soon as this goes hand in hand with information processing, it is also associated with security risks that can occur in our products and services as well as in connected information infrastructures despite all due care. Transparency creates trust here.

KARL STORZ maintains a global network of product security officers who design, develop and deploy state-of-the-art security and privacy capabilities for our products and services, and handle security incidents in a risk-oriented manner.
