Case Study: City of Winterthur achieves secure, privacy-compliant communication with Threema Work

Adapt Threema Work Flexibly to the Daily Business

The City of Winterthur, Switzerland's sixth-largest city, sought a secure and privacy-compliant messaging solution for its 60 departments and 4,800 employees. Their challenge was to equip their entire organization with a flexible communication tool that could be adapted to diverse daily tasks without violating the city council's strict privacy policies. To address this, the city's IT Services turned to the vendor Threema and implemented their product, Threema Work.

Threema provided a highly flexible solution that was distributed efficiently via the city's own MDM system. The Threema Work app is now used for fast and private communication across all levels of the organization, from interns to city-council members, for both internal and external matters. The key results are secure, privacy-compliant instant messaging that adheres to policy and widespread appreciation from users for adopting a secure Swiss messenger.
