Customers worldwide rely on Rohde & Schwarz and its advanced solutions in the test and measurement, secure communications, networks and cybersecurity, and broadcast and media markets.

For Rohde & Schwarz, KeyTalk has specifically expanded its KeyTalk CKMS with highly innovative product support. Given the nature of their products and services, it is crucial for Rohde & Schwarz that internal discussions via solutions like MS Teams can take place securely. At the request of R&S, the KeyTalk CKMS is now able to issue internal authentication certificates for Linux workstations of R&S engineers, with the private key of the certificate being secured according to the ‘TPM Key Attestation‘ principle. This provides a maximum secure MS Teams session. R&S had been searching for a solution in this area for more than 2 years and, thanks to the flexibility and high expertise of the KeyTalk development team, now has an excellent solution for this requirement.
