Gunnebo Safe Storage is preparing to showcase its expertise at Security Essen, emphasizing the growing intersection of secure storage, connected locking systems, and cyber resilience, which are key to the evolution of physical security.

Attendees of the Euro Defense Expo, located at Stand 3A65 in Hall 3, can explore TransitGuard—a mobile vault solution by Gunnebo designed to safeguard cash, valuables, and other high-value assets during transit or special missions. This focus comes as organizations increasingly assess how assets are protected across the supply chain, with emphasis on the transit of valuables between different locations.

Expanding Security Applications

In addition to TransitGuard, Gunnebo will present its Gunnebo Encry high-security electronic locks. These locks demonstrate how electronic locking technologies enhance control, audit capabilities, and flexibility across various security contexts.

Viktoria Lövberg, Director Strategic Key Distributors and Defense at Gunnebo Safe Storage Europe, highlighted the integration of physical security and cybersecurity. She noted, "Customers are no longer evaluating these areas separately but looking for solutions to protect assets and support the resilience of the wider connected systems. Security Essen provides an excellent opportunity to discuss these challenges and share knowledge with customers, partners, and industry professionals."

Cyber resilience and the European Regulatory Framework

Stephan Seifert from Gunnebo will delve into technical progressions in safe storage design

A pivotal theme at Security Essen will be the European Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and its effect on connected security products. Olof Sandberg from Tecnosicurezza will speak about the development of dedicated locking systems conforming to the CRA through secure system architecture, access management, and lifecycle security. 

Additionally, Stephan Seifert from Gunnebo will delve into technical progressions in safe storage design. His presentation, 'Minimizing Risk: Combining Core Drill Protection and Integrated Alarm in One – Safes and Strong Rooms with Planar Protection,' will explore planar protection technologies that merge core drilling resistance with integrated alarm features.

Viktoria Lövberg emphasized the interconnected nature of physical security, connectivity, and compliance, stating, "We want visitors to leave Security Essen and our stand with a clearer understanding of how physical security, connectivity and compliance requirements are becoming increasingly interconnected." The company aims to share its knowledge to assist organizations in evaluating the security, operational, and regulatory aspects that will influence future security strategies and investment choices.
