CYBERSECURITY IS TEAMSPORT.
DEFEND
WHAT'S IMPORTANT TO YOU.
What's important to you should be defended. Whether it's your own family, your own goal or the Achilles' heel of every company: the digital infrastructure.
We are an official cybersecurity partner of Borussia Mönchengladbach. Defense is in our DNA. We ensure that digital infrastructures withstand every attack, regardless of industry, country or framework conditions.
The Key?
Early Detection.
Just as in football, it's about anticipating attacks before they even happen. At this sensitive point, we make the right decisions and prevent damage before it occurs.
As part of our campaign “Defend what's important to you,” we talked to players from Borussia Mönchengladbach about what it actually means to defend. Often, defenders operate in the shadows, remain under the radar, even though they are essential for the game.
What do Nico Elvedi, Stefan Lainer, Julian Weigl and Rocco Reitz have to say about it?
FOUR PERSPECTIVES.
ONE GOAL: DEFEND.
RELAXATION. OVERVIEW. ANTICIPATION
Nico Elvedi about what a defender cannot train.
- Was macht einen guten Verteidiger aus? „Ein guter Verteidiger muss vorher wissen, was der Gegner vorhat.“
- Was ist das Besondere für dich am Verteidigen „Es ist wie ein Puzzle. Wenn ich richtig stehe, braucht es keinen Zweikampf.“
- Wie genau schaut man sich den Gegnerverbund an? „Ich analysiere Laufwege, Körpersprache und Ballposition.“
ENERGIE. WILLE. TIMING.
Stefan Lainer about the motivation behind every sprint.
- Wie sieht für dich der perfekte Zweikampf aus? „Ich will, dass der Gegner keinen Spaß hat.“
- Was ist das Besondere für dich am Verteidigen „Klar, sauber, aber du musst zeigen, dass du da bist.“
RESPONSIBILITY. USE. LOYALTY.
Rocco Reitz about the often invisible backbone of a functioning game.
- Wird Verteidigen eigentlich genug wertgeschätzt? „Oft nicht, aber ohne defensive Balance gewinnt keiner.“
- Was bedeutet es dir, das eigene Tor zu verteidigen? „Du gibst alles, weil hinten alles zusammenbricht, wenn du es nicht tust.“
ANALYSIS. CONTROL. PRECISION.
Julian Weigl about opponent reading, decision pressure and what preparation really means.
- Wie bereitest du dich auf einen Angreifer vor? „Ich muss wissen, was er denkt und wann er zögert.“
