With a wealth of experience from crisis situations, our BCM team strengthens resilience, minimises damage and optimises business positioning. Use this expertise for a secure future in a dynamic environment.

Cloud security

• Go to the service

Cloud-computing has gained a clear foothold in Germany. Cloud technology promises reductions in operating costs as well as faster, scalable and more flexible IT systems. Nevertheless, rapid transitions to cloud technology also give rise to various risks. Our team will assist you with the measures required to secure your cloud environment. Our services here will help you to stay resilient throughout all phases of the cloud lifeÌýcycle and with risk preparedness.

ÌýCyber security for mergers & acquisitions

Cyber security can have a major influence on the business value of an investment over its overall life cycle. Our specialised Cyber Deals Team can provide clarity regarding the decisions that need to be made in all phases of the transaction and assist in identifying and minimising the risks while simultaneously maximising returns on investment. With our Cyber Security IPO Readiness Assessment, we review the effectiveness of your existing information security arrangements. Cyber security is becoming increasingly important for investors. For a successful business strategy, trust in the security, handling and analytical usage of data needs to be established from the outset.

Cyber strategy, risk & transformation

Geopolitical crises and pandemic-related digitalised working environments, but also data-driven business models and further networked ecosystems increase the attack surface of companies. Along with the risks, the regulatory requirements have also risen sharply and are difficult to keep track of both nationally and internationally. Boards of directors are under increasing pressure to act and at the same time have to live up to their responsibilities. Together with you, we develop a custom-fit cyber strategy – based on your business and technology strategy. With this strategy, we then define and establish a goal-oriented and efficient transformation programme with you. In this way, we optimally align strategy, governance and technology deployment in a unique way – so that attackers have a hard time, all regulatory requirements are fulfilled at the same time and board members can sleep more soundly again.

Managed security services

• Go to the service

Cyber threats are on the rise and the control mechanisms used against them are often the Chief Information Security Officer's (CISO) KPIs. To effectively achieve these KPIs, your cyber processes should be run by your managed services provider in the same way as a business process outsourcing − not an IT operation. With our Managed Services approach, we take on this responsibility.

Information governance & privacy

Companies are being compelled to process increasing volumes of information and wish to use it profitably. At the same time, data processing is subject to increasingly stringent compliance regulations – both nationally and internationally. Managers find themselves struggling to strike a balance between safeguarding compliance, flexibility for fostering innovation and ensuring employee access to the right information at the right time. Our experienced teams will assist you in maintaining control here. The information governance solution of Â鶹ÊÓƵ Germany allows for the development of a sustainable information strategy and applies modern technologies in order to identify, organise and control valuable data. In addition, with Â鶹ÊÓƵ Certification Services GmbH at our disposal, we have a certification and audit firm that specialises in IT security, data protection and compliance throughout the German-speaking region.

Cyber security upskilling programme

• Cyber Escape Room

Â鶹ÊÓƵ has developed a comprehensive security awareness programme for improving both managers’ and employees’ understanding of cyberattacks and the risks they pose. As part of this programme, cyberattacks are simulated and participants play the roles of the hackers as well as the staff at the company being targeted.

Cyber security experience center

• Go to the service

How can operational technologies (OT) be used to gain an overview of the rising threat from cyberattacks – especially with regard to critical infrastructure? Â鶹ÊÓƵ operates its Cyber Security Experience Center in Frankfurt in order to demonstrate the acute risks and challenges within this area and to highlight clear best practices for increasing IT security.

ÌýIndustrial and product cyber security

The security of OT and IoT systems is becoming increasingly important. Due to the increasing diversity of the networked devices being used across the industrial sector, trading activities and critical infrastructures, the potential targets for cyberattacks are also growing in number. We will assist you in detecting invisible dangers within your network and in safeguarding yourself against them.

Enterprise security architecture

• Go to the service

A rapidly changing world means that technology needs are also undergoing rapid change. At the same time, digital risks are on the rise and the topic of cyberÌýsecurity is becoming increasingly important. Incomplete or outdated security architecture places companies in the crosshairs for internal and external attacks. In order to counteract such threats, enterprise security architecture offers a holistic and preventative approach to security in which existing security architecture is searched for vulnerabilities and opportunities and a target vision (including measures) is determined.

Identity & access management (IAM)

• SAP IDM Replacement

In the digital business world of today, companies need to protect their assets, ensure compliance and ensure that users have consistently positive experiences. One important component here is the secure handling of data, access rights and digital identities. Identity and access management (IAM) practices ensure that the right persons have access to the right information and resources for the right reasons and at the right time.

Cyber incident response

Our cyber defence approach is a holistic approach to security that makes it possible to detect security incidents quickly and respond to them rapidly. By developing a central cyber defence unit, we assist companies in ensuring the effective and tight integration of their preventive measures. This is necessary because cyber defence mechanisms are often located across various locations or organisational units and thus do not provide for a holistic approach to the identification and handling of suspicious activities. We will provide you with practical support in preparing for cyber incidents, assist you in responding to them should a major emergency arise and ensure the continuity of business during recovery measures.

Smart cyber defence

Is your organisation capable of detecting risks proactively and remedying vulnerabilities? Could security at your company benefit from closer cooperation between departments that are relevant to security? A functioning security operations centre (SOC) serves as a company’s alarm system.

Microsoft advisory

• Go to the service

Our alliance with Microsoft helps us to solve complex problems for our customers by using Microsoft's leading cyber solutions in order to protect businesses from hazards and drive forward their digital transformations. We assist our customers in understanding Microsoft architecture, protecting and administering information, managing cloud security, controlling identity and access management and much more.

SAP advisory

• SAP Security

For many companies, SAP application environments are a highly integrated component of their value-added chain. The high flexibility of the SAP landscape and its associated components nevertheless give rise to risks. We will guide you from the initial evaluation of your SAP landscape to the implementation of appropriate, sustainable and controlled protection measures – including within hyperscaled cloud-based environments.
