'The fact that Cubbit's technology allows us to tell our customers that their data is everywhere but nowhere at the same time is a guarantee that we were not seeing in any technology we are currently using. There can never be a cyber-attack, catastrophic event, political scenario, or anything else allowing data to be stolen or made inaccessible.’
Samuele Sassi — CIO & IT Manager, Poggipolini
Poggipolini is a company specializing in ultra-high precision mechanical machining and design. It develops critical components and structural fastening systems for the aerospace, automotive, and racing industries.
Founded in 1950, Poggipolini has a yearly turnover of €22 million in 2022 and deals with international customers (e.g., Leonardo, BOEING, and Ferrari), increasingly concerned about privacy and data protection from localized disasters and ransomware.
'With this ever-changing geo-political scenario, the challenges are far from trivial,' says Samuele Sassi (CIO and IT Manager, Poggipolini). 'On the one hand, we want to ensure that our's and our customer's data is constantly available, regardless of the increasing number of hacker attacks and catastrophic events that may occur. On the other hand, with traditional cloud storage, I can replicate the data to ensure its constant availability. Yet, the risk is that it will be backed up on the data center of a nation now an ally but might change faction due to geo-political situations.'
And in these cases, someone else pries into data for their own self-interest or for the sovereignty/security of their own country. 'The risk is that our client's critical data will be used to satisfy third parties' purposes. It is no longer a surprise if someone can look into confidential data stored in a data center.'
And Poggipolini's goal is to ensure its customers' highest level of privacy and security with the latest technology available.
Poggipolini's customers know nothing is more precious than their digital sovereignty. Yet, the customer unpleasantly knows that their data is stored somewhere in the world in some mysterious data center.
'Adopting Cubbit has allowed us to guarantee to our customers the confidentiality and geo-redundancy of data.' explains Samuele Sassi (CIO and IT Manager, Poggipolini), 'The fact that Cubbit's technology allows us to tell our customers that their data is everywhere but nowhere at the same time is a guarantee that we were not seeing in any technology we are currently using. There can never be a cyber-attack, catastrophic event, political scenario, or anything else allowing data to be stolen or made inaccessible. Beyond our good sense of using the proper rule of thumb in protecting access and saving the data correctly.'
