Dear IoT Customer,

earlier this week, it was brought to our attention that one of our suppliers for Cloud of Things, Software AG, suffered a hack of their internal systems. Although based on the information that was provided to us by Software AG we do not have any actual evidence or indication that our Cloud of Things platform was compromised. We nevertheless found it appropriate to enforce several measures to set restrictions for all Software AG system-administrative roles, ensuring integrity of the Cloud of Things platform and shield it from any unauthorized access.

Currently Deutsche Telekom are closely collaborating with Software AG to monitor the situation in order to pre-emptively ensure that services offered via the Cloud of Things platform remain secure and will not be subject to disruption. In parallel Deutsche Telekom IoT is working on a thorough review of the incident together with Software AG.

Any relevant news will be communicated to you via Deutsche Telekom IoT’s corporate communication channels.

Further information pertaining to the breach at Software AG can be found on the Software AG website.
