History

1992

In October 1992, the Confidential Information Protection Association was created. The company's activities are aimed at developing an integrated approach to solving customer problems, at developing competencies in the field of consulting and integration of information security solutions.

1993

The Information Protection Association "Confidential" becomes the first non-state organization in Russia to receive a state license for activities in the field of information protection.

The first developments of the Association for Information Protection "Confidential" are being created - software and hardware systems for protecting information from unauthorized access, copying, screen reading, Dallas Lock and Cerber Lock viruses, supplemented by Minuet access control systems.

1994-2003

The company's own magazine "Information Protection. The Confident. "

1994

In the structure of the company, Technical Management is added to the Information Security Office, within the framework of which in-house production of the full cycle is created.

1997

The Association has more than three dozen developments in the field of information protection. "Confident" becomes a leading Russian developer and manufacturer in the field of information security.

A subsidiary of the Scientific and Information Center for Security Problems is engaged in additional professional training of Russian specialists in the field of information security.

1998

In the company "Confidential" the direction for protection of facilities (Engineering systems) is formed and fixed.

A new direction is being opened - certification of informatization objects, within the framework of which in subsequent years more than 800 objects from the city to the federal levels were examined.

The Company creates the City Housing Safety Center, whose customers are served in the Service Center (Technical Department).

early 2000s

An intelligent complex for controlling access to the ARMor-201KS facility is being developed, designed for large enterprises located on large areas and having a complex system of production facilities.

2003

The process of restructuring the company is completed. As a result, a structure of 7 centers is created: the SOBIS Design and Implementation Center (hereinafter the Engineering Systems PVC), the Information Protection Center (DPI), the Service Center, the Certification Center, the Housing Safety Center, the Training Center and the Editorial Office of the magazine - under the control of a single Corporate Center.

The active development of the partner network of the company for the sale of Dallas Lock products throughout Russia begins .

The Confidential Information Protection Center appeared as a result of the company's structural transformation in 2003. The specialists of the Center believe that this was what gave a significant impetus to a new round in the development of the IT direction, which in the early 2000s was going through hard times.

After being able to conduct an independent sales policy and concentration of performing resources, the Center conducted a thorough analysis of the market status in order to identify the most promising segments.

First of all, the successful promotion in the market was facilitated by the emergence in 2003-2004 of a new generation of the company's flagship product - the Dallas Lock information protection system (versions 6.0 and 7.0). Version 6.0 was fully developed from scratch, but taking into account the accumulated experience and changed requirements for security systems. It became the first new generation system on the Russian market, where they abandoned the use of hardware in the form of an expansion board. This made it possible to simplify implementation, reduce the cost and likelihood of hardware conflicts with equipment.

"Pure software," at that time, was a breakthrough in the market, especially considering that the next version of system 7.0 was already developed under the latest versions of Windows 2000 and XP operating systems and had a sufficient class of protection to work with documents labeled "secret."

2004

The company carries out design work not only on low-current systems, but also on the entire complex of engineering systems.

2006

By 2006-2007, two rather independent areas were formed at the Information Protection Center - product and integration. Dallas Lock's own product line was promoted through a partner network and large federal sales programs aimed at holding structures. A new version of the Dallas Lock 7.5 product appeared and was certified. Traditionally, the solution has become unique, for the first time on the market offering the protection of information of the "top secret" category with a fully software implementation.

But after the adoption of the 152-FZ, the average customer no longer needed unique methods for analyzing and managing information risks, comprehensive consulting, certification according to international ISO standards. Most needed to bring personal data information systems in line with the law.

However, the most mature customers still needed a comprehensive approach that showed real security and provided advanced tools to information security management.

2007

The service center of the company "Confidence" goes to service large facilities.

2007-2012

The activities of the group of companies "Confidence" are marked by the annual professional prize in the field of commercial real estate Commercial Real Estate Awards Federal and SPb.

2010

The Center for Information Protection of the company "Confidence" is awarded the gold medal of the National Industry Prize "For Strengthening the Security of Russia."

2011

There is a final separation of the product and integration areas and the creation of two independent divisions in the structure of the Confidential group of companies - the Information Security Center and LLC Confidential-Integration.

Since both sales models and execution tasks for the partner network and end customers were very different, and both areas of information security were experiencing a stage of rapid growth, in 2011 the company made the final decision to separate them into two independent divisions. The Information Security Center took over the functions of a vendor and distributor for its own products, as well as the regulation of the promotion channel - the partner network. Comprehensive projects for the construction of information protection systems for end customers have become the area of ​ ​ responsibility of "Confidential-Integration."

2012 - to present

The main areas of the company's activity are four: design and installation of building engineering systems (Engineering systems), provision of integrated information security (LLC "Confidential-Integration"), development and production of certified information protection tools (Information Protection Center), operation and maintenance of engineering systems (Service Center).
