\u201cRetarus\u2019 vision is to create the perfect network for the global economy. Therein, Retarus manages the safe and efficient flow of information for enterprises around the world.\u201d But how is this actually done in the real world?<\/p>\n
Taking a closer look at Retarus\u2019 comprehensive portfolio<\/a>, it doesn\u2019t take long to notice that a whole raft of communication channels are on offer for the flow of essential information: the full range from email<\/a>, SMS<\/a> or EDI<\/a> all the way through to fax<\/a> or SAP systems<\/a>. At the end of the day, it is actually not the medium itself that occupies center stage. A look at the history of the company shows that the innovative developments over the years have generally kept a close eye on the business processes of customers – regardless of which channel is finally employed to meet the customer\u2019s needs.<\/p>\n A short history of innovation at Retarus:<\/strong><\/p>\n 1992 – Retarus is established by Martin Hager 1993 – Corporate fax services<\/em> 1994 – Email security as a service<\/em> 1997 – Retarus encrypts emails<\/em> 2000 – Retarus Faxolution is certified by SAP<\/em> 2005 – Retarus eSign provides digital signatures<\/em> 2008 – EDI as a managed service<\/em> 2014 – Retarus awarded with PCI DSS certification<\/em> Today Retarus supports customers around the globe with businesses processes that could not be more diverse.
