IT Security is the protection of information from unauthorized use, disclosure, modification, or destruction, while ensuring that the information can still be accessible by authorized users.

BTS' IT Security specialists involve three components:

Confidentiality

BTS specialists prevent the disclosure of information to unauthorized individuals or systems. BTS works with the client to protect against information disclosure that should have been kept private.

Integrity

BTS specialists ensure that data will not be modified without proper authorization. This includes data being modified while being transmitted from one source to another.
