antares CIRS
Our software, antares CIRS, is an anonymous reporting and whistleblowing system. It complies with the requirements of the German Whistleblower Protection Act (HinSchG) and the EU Directive 2019/1937. The system serves to uncover compliance violations or other discrimination, both by internal employees and by external contacts. It offers the possibility to anonymously report incidents that violate applicable rules and guidelines in an audit-proof manner. With antares CIRS you fulfill all legal requirements resulting from the HinSchG.
Tailoring the system to a company's individual needs and providing an intuitive interface are critical to success.
