Intellectual Property Security
Protecting intellectual property is a critical part of choosing the right contract manufacturing partner. At Keller Technology Corporation (KTC), many of the programs we support are confidential. Our policies, systems and culture are designed to safeguard sensitive information while maintaining compliance with applicable export control regulations, including ITAR.
How Keller Technology Protects Your Intellectual Property
Keller Technology maintains standardized policies and procedures to protect customer intellectual property throughout the lifecycle of a project. Proprietary and confidentiality agreements are established between Keller Technology and our employees, vendors and customers to clearly define responsibilities and expectations related to sensitive information.
Controlled Access to Sensitive Information
We limit access to confidential customer information, products and equipment through both procedural and technical controls.
Restricted Data Access
Sensitive customer information is accessible only to authorized personnel, with electronic access granted through formal written approval and defined permissions.
Protected Technical Details
Confidential elements are limited or removed from drawings and documentation to reduce unnecessary exposure of proprietary information.
Secure Physical Environments
Facility access is restricted, and entry into sensitive areas is only granted to essential personnel. When requested, manufacturing spaces can be segmented to reduce visibility.
Configurable Security Controls
Access protocols can be tailored to meet specific customer requirements or regulatory obligations, including ITAR-related needs.
Compliance and Export Control Awareness
Our team is experienced in supporting customers with complex regulatory requirements and understands the impact of noncompliance on both business operations and reputation. Keller Technology is ITAR registered, and our internal protocols are designed to protect controlled technical data and regulated information across digital systems, facilities and workflows.
IT Security
Keller Technology also protects your IP by safeguarding our IT systems from breaches. We ensure that all necessary firewalls are in place and monitored in real time. We regularly conduct a formal review of our IT security tools, procedures and policies and ensure access to information within our systems is restricted. Business information is backed up daily and stored offsite.
A Culture of Security and Accountability
Effective intellectual property protection depends on more than just policies. At Keller Technology, security is reinforced through training, awareness and accountability at every level of the organization. Employees are trained on corporate policies and understand the importance of protecting customer information, controlled data and proprietary designs.
A Trusted Partner for Complex Manufacturing
We recognize that trust is earned through consistent action. By embedding security awareness into our daily operations, we help ensure customer intellectual property is handled with care, discretion and professionalism.
