Full data sovereignty
Your communication data remains where it should — in Germany. Teamwire is hosted exclusively in certified European data centers (ISO & BSI C5) and guarantees immunity from third-country access, including U.S. legislation such as the CLOUD Act or FISA.
Multi-layer encryption & Zero-Trust architecture
All content, metadata and storage processes are secured using multi-layer encryption. In addition, the Zero-Trust model continuously verifies every device, user and connection — no implicit trust, no exceptions.
Privacy by Design & Default
Data protection is not an add-on, but a core principle: no metadata analysis, no address book access, no tracking — ever.
Custom data retention policies
Define how long messages, files and logs are stored. Automated deletion enables GDPR-, NIS-2- and IT-SiG-compliant data handling — without increasing administrative workload.
Certified security — verifiable and audit-ready
Teamwire is ISO 27001 certified. Hosting partner IONOS meets BSI C5 requirements. This enables ministries to meet NIS-2 and IT Security Act 2.0 obligations with verifiable documentation — ensuring secure, sovereign communication across all levels of government.
Securely share sensitive information
Send documents, voice messages, photos or classified notes end-to-end encrypted to departments, cabinet members or interministerial teams. Ideal for sensitive coordination or crisis communication.
Comment and edit files directly
Add notes, annotations or visual markings directly in the app — for example on drafts, cabinet submissions or operational reports. All changes are securely recorded and fully traceable.
Quick decision-making via secure polls
Coordinate decisions, approvals or meeting times within seconds. Results appear instantly — efficient, transparent and audit-proof.
Seamless integration — without shadow IT
Teamwire integrates smoothly alongside email, phone and DMS systems. All communication remains encrypted, traceable and fully compliant — without relying on private messaging tools.
Available on all devices — even during outages
Whether on mobile, desktop or web: ministers, state secretaries and departments remain connected at all times. Even if central IT systems fail.
Familiar and intuitive — with the ease of WhatsApp
Anyone who has used common messaging apps will instantly feel at home. Teamwire combines intuitive usability with the highest security standards — no training required, no learning curve, maximum efficiency.
1:1 and group communication for every scenario
Create secure chats for parliamentary groups, cabinet meetings, working groups, or cross-departmental task forces. All relevant stakeholders stay informed at all times.
Secure voice and video conferencing for direct coordination
Conduct confidential conversations or ad-hoc meetings — encrypted and independent of foreign cloud providers. Ideal for crisis situations or urgent consultations.
Color-coded status and priority messages
Visually highlight urgent topics such as emergency decisions, situation reports, or new directives. Participants immediately recognize what needs attention (including read receipts).
Secure communication across hierarchies and departments
Teamwire enables structured, traceable communication between ministries, authorities, and security organizations — without the risks of shadow IT or insecure tools.
Emergency alerts and panic button
Trigger alerts that override mute settings and immediately notify predefined recipients such as crisis units or senior officials. The panic button can also transmit location data and a voice message if required.
Push-to-Talk and broadcast messaging
Share critical updates with entire departments or task forces at once. Push-to-Talk enables instant voice communication without typing — essential when every second counts.
Live locations and situational awareness
Monitor operational sites, field teams, and affected locations in real time. An interactive map provides a clear overview of responsibilities and positions to enable precise coordination.
Documentation and traceability
All communication remains traceable and can be archived in an audit-proof manner if necessary. This enables ministries to fulfill their legal documentation obligations even in emergencies.
Flexible hosting: on-premises, private cloud, or public cloud
You decide where your communication data is stored — within your own data centre, in a private cloud, or in a certified German public cloud environment (BSI C5). 100% compliant with GDPR, IT-SiG 2.0, and NIS-2.
No dependence on U.S. providers or third-country access
Teamwire guarantees complete European data sovereignty. No exposure to U.S. legislation such as the CLOUD Act or FISA, no transfer to third countries, and no hidden dependencies.
Scalable architecture for every organisational level
Whether a federal ministry, state representation, or subordinate authority — Teamwire scales securely and flexibly. Multi-tenant capabilities enable separated yet federated use across multiple institutions.
High availability for mission-critical communication
Redundant cluster servers ensure uninterrupted communication — even during technical failures or network disruptions. SLAs of up to 99.99% availability are possible for critical government operations.
Automatic backups and failover systems
Continuous backups protect sensitive information. In the event of a disruption, Teamwire automatically switches to an available system — with no data loss and no interruption to communication.
Complete control over access and interfaces
All API connections, user permissions, and device access are centrally managed. Ministries maintain full control over their data, infrastructure, and communication flows at all times.
Central administration dashboard
Manage users, roles, devices, and permissions from a single, intuitive interface — securely and transparently. Designed for ministries, departments, parliamentary groups, and state representations.
Seamless integration into existing IT systems
Integrate Teamwire with existing identity management systems via LDAP or Active Directory. All changes are synchronized automatically — reducing manual effort and potential errors.
Secure Mobile Application Management (MDM/UEM)
Protect confidential communication with encrypted app containers. Teamwire supports all major MDM, EMM, and UEM systems via AppConfig — ensuring secure use, even with BYOD devices.
Audit-proof logging and compliance reporting
All administrative actions are automatically documented — ensuring full traceability for internal audits and compliance with NIS 2, GDPR, IT-SiG 2.0, and other regulations.
Federated communication between ministries and authorities
Communicate securely with other ministries, state governments, or external authorities via encrypted federation channels — ensuring data sovereignty while maintaining clear jurisdictional boundaries.
Coordination of cabinet and executive meetings
Policy proposals, amendments, and confidential documents can be shared and reviewed securely within Teamwire — fully GDPR-compliant. Read receipts and role-based permissions guarantee transparency without exposing sensitive content via email or consumer messaging apps.
Crisis and security communication
In the event of cyberattacks, natural disasters, or major political incidents, Teamwire remains fully operational — even if core IT systems fail. Push-to-Talk, broadcast messaging, and emergency alerts enable immediate distribution of critical information to all relevant stakeholders — from IT and press offices to ministers and state secretaries.
Inter-ministerial and federal coordination
With federated server infrastructure, ministries can collaborate securely with other government bodies and state authorities — without data leaving the European legal framework. Ideal for rapid coordination between federal and state levels.
Secure communication in political operations
Strategic documents, internal drafts, and sensitive messages stay protected at all times. No data is transferred to third countries, no unauthorized access is possible, and shadow IT is effectively eliminated.
Operational resilience during IT failures
If traditional communication systems such as email or phones fail, Teamwire remains available as an independent and secure fallback channel. This ensures ministries stay accessible and able to act — even during technical disruptions or cyber incidents.
Coordination with external partners and authorities
Communicate securely with state governments, subordinate authorities, or European partners via encrypted, federated connections — clearly separated, yet fully interoperable whenever needed.
Secure messaging during mobile operations, travel, or international missions
Ministers, advisors, and delegations remain securely connected while on the move — whether at conferences, state visits, or international meetings. With state-of-the-art encryption, a Zero-Trust security model, and sovereign hosting in Europe, all communication stays confidential and compliant — even across public or unsecured networks.
