Mandatory Interface Encryption

Mandatory Interface Encryption

As a trading venue operator, Deutsche Börse needs to adhere to requirements regarding encryption of data during transfer via networks on public ground and the encryption of credentials during transfer via networks on non-public ground (Critical Infrastructure KRITIS regulation).

Deutsche Börse has implemented mandatory changes regarding data transmission via the T7 trading interfaces. These changes have been made to improve the security of information transmitted via communication networks to further reduce the risk of unauthorized interception, manipulation, or misuse.

To support Trading Participants with the implementation of their security requirements, Deutsche Börse now offers additional connectivity options to implement Transport Layer Security (TLS) for sensitive data in critical business areas.
