About Us
deviceTRUST provides the central contextual platform for enterprises, enabling users to work with their digital workspace from any location, with any device, over any network and at any time, giving IT departments all the information and control they need to meet all security, compliance and regulatory requirements.
Our Mission
Our mission is to enable companies to provide their employees with secure digital workspaces that meet the requirements of a hybrid work environment with continuously evaluated and data-driven security.
In doing so, we assess the context of the device, such as security state, location, network connections, and other elements as a Contextual Security factor for authorization.
We achieve this by creating a secure central platform in which the context is always available, using it in all technology platforms for conditional access.
Leadership Team
deviceTRUST was founded in 2016 in Darmstadt / Germany by three experienced veterans in the IT and virtualization market to innovatively enable the ever-growing needs for secure and flexible digital workspaces.

The importance of IT security has grown particularly with the increase in mobile work. deviceTRUST recognized the relevance of contextuality in this field very early on.
I see high growth potential in the highly dynamic market for digital workplaces in which deviceTRUST operates with its solution.
