Diebold Nixdorf, Cybera Partner on Cloud-Based Gas Station Platform

Collaboration combines companies’ respective core retail competencies

NORTH CANTON, Ohio, and FRANKLIN, Tenn. – Connected commerce provider Diebold Nixdorf and software provider Cybera recently announced that they are partnering to securely connect physical systems and digital operations for gas stations with a unified platform.

The Diebold Nixdorf i-Service Station eco-system is an end-to-end solution portfolio for fuel retailers. Diebold will enhance this solution platform with Cybera’s secure SD-WAN solution.

Combining the companies’ respective core retail competencies, the new solution connects store-based payment systems with cloud-based computing operations. It addresses the growing complexity that gas station operators face at remote locations by managing cloud-based solutions, payment networks and other sensitive applications and services. The software-defined nature of the platform enables it to run on any network, preserving existing infrastructure investments while optimizing availability, uptime and speed-to-market for new and next generation services.

Cybera’s solution accelerates Diebold Nixdorf’s ability to remotely scale their point-of-sale (POS) suite of applications across a global footprint. To protect against security breaches, Cybera combines a defense-in-depth approach with industry leading microsegmentation, isolating each application into its own virtual network with custom security and performance policies.

“We work closely with our customers to identify business needs and collaboratively develop solutions that will streamline their operations. We know that any downtime or slow performance can translate into lost sales and unhappy consumers,” said Horst von Wels, Diebold Nixdorf vice president and head of service stations international. “This partnership enables us to offer a solution to the market that will provide a more secure, compliant and reliable way for our customers to optimize cost while enabling a smooth cloud transition of applications and services.”

Franklin, Tenn.-based Cybera is a provider of secure, software-defined wide-area-networks (SD-WAN) solutions. By “virtualizing” security functions in the fabric of the network, Cybera offers advanced enterprise-grade security for any location, it said.

North Canton, Ohio-based Diebold Nixdorf enables connected commerce for millions of consumers each day across the financial and retail industries. Its software-defined solutions bridge the physical and digital worlds of cash and consumer transactions.
