About us

"We stand for independent, quality-oriented IT security that works in everyday life and is effective in an emergency."

We are an independent IT security consulting and auditing firm—with over nine years of experience and more than 400 projects in highly regulated industries. Our expertise begins where technology providers, large system integrators, or international consulting firms reach their limits. Our specialty is manual IT security audits.

Because we know exactly how attackers operate, think, and actually exploit vulnerabilities, we translate this knowledge into effective, practical security measures. This results in solutions that are technically sound, compliant with regulations, and feasible in everyday operations. For corporate groups and operators of Critical Infrastructures, we’re called upon when it’s crucial to understand the actual tactics of attackers—through manual security audits and targeted IT security consulting. For small and medium-sized businesses, we act as a long-term strategic partner: We take responsibility for our clients’ entire IT security posture and ensure that IT security operates stably and reliably.
