15.08.2024, Lucerne – Sunrise Business, a leading provider of complete communication and integrated ICT solutions, has joined the SCION Association as its newest member. The Sunrise Business team has been at the forefront of the Internet revolution, being one of the first to offer SCION as a cybersecurity solution to today’s business needs and building the infrastructure for the Secure Swiss Finance Network (SSFN), a communication infrastructure initiated by the Swiss National Bank and SIX. Furthermore, Sunrise Business is actively participating in the Secure Swiss Healthcare Network operated by HIN.

Today, Sunrise Business continues to advocate for SCION, positioning the technology as an effective solution to cyber threats thanks to its security and resilience. 

The SCION Association, a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing the global adoption of SCION, joins forces with Sunrise Business to pave the way for the advancement of SCION technology in the areas of standardization, open source, and community engagement. One example for such initiatives is the SCION Day 2024, where Sunrise Business is a Gold Sponsor.

Robert Redeleanu, Chief Business Officer of Sunrise states: “With the rise of cyberattacks worldwide, innovative methods to defend our customers are necessary; and SCION is one of the technologies focused on doing so at the foundational level. We’re therefore proud to be one of the first ISPs in the world to have introduced and deployed SCION-based services for our customers, and it’s an honour to join forces with the SCION Association to advance the adoption of this technology in Switzerland.”

Nicola Rustignoli, co-CEO of the SCION Association says “We’re excited to welcome Sunrise Business in our community. As long-standing supporters of SCION, the team at Sunrise Business is made up of skilled experts who know the technology and can help us understand the market’s needs and advance the technology to fill the gaps.”
