Information security at Swiss Post: The same principle that has long since applied to physical postal items also plays a key role in digital data processing at Swiss Post, namely ensuring the highest possible level of security and discretion when handling customer data.

Both technological developments and cyber threats are analyzed on an ongoing basis. The detection of vulnerabilities at an early stage allows a response to be made quickly, before a risk to the stored data arises. Moreover, Swiss Post Group is also a pioneer for bug bounty hunting since 2020.
