THINKING STRATEGICALLY ABOUT CYBERSECURITY – STAYING RESILIENT IN A NETWORKED WORLD

The current threat situation clearly shows that cyber risks are globally networked, while protective measures must work locally. This tension between international threat patterns and regional compliance requirements necessitates a balanced approach to security.

As experienced consulting partners, we support companies and organisations in the development of customised security strategies. Our approach combines global best practices with practical implementation expertise – always geared to your individual risk profile and business environment.

The tried-and-tested three-lines-of-defence approach forms the basis: The integration of operational protective measures, systematic risk management and independent assurance creates sustainable resilience.

This holistic perspective makes it possible to position security not as an obstacle, but as a strategic success factor.

We bring special expertise to the table:

• Modernising security architectures in the digital transformation

• Coping with complex regulatory requirements

• Developing future-proof protection strategies for critical infrastructures

Project Management Professional (PMP)®

+ With NIS2, DORA, CRA and the upcoming AI Act, companies are facing complex implementation projects.

+ We guide you through the regulatory requirements – from AI risk assessment under the AI Act to critical DORA IT resources and NIS2 compliance.

Benefits:
+ Integrated implementation of AI Act, NIS2 and DORA

+ AI safety concepts. With NIS2, DORA, CRA and the upcoming AI Act, companies are facing complex implementation projects.

+ We guide you through the regulatory requirements – from AI risk assessment under the AI Act to critical DORA IT resources and NIS2 compliance.

Benefits:
+ Integrated implementation of AI Act, NIS2 and DORA

+ AI security concepts for critical applications

+ Future-proof compliance management for critical applications

+ Future-proof compliance management

Our three-lines-of-defence approach combines classic cyber risks with new AI challenges:

• 1st line: security of AI development processes (AI Act)

• 2nd line: risk assessment for AI/large language models

• 3rd line: independent AI system audits

Benefits:
+ AI Act-compliant risk classification

+ Future-proof AI governance

+ Seamless integration into existing ISO 27001/NIS2 systems

Regulatory deadlines at a glance:

• NIS2 implementation by 10/2024

• DORA deadline 01/2025

• AI Act (phased in from 2025)

We combine AI security with regulatory compliance – for protection that thinks for itself.

The parallel requirements of the AI Act (high-risk AI), NIS2 reporting obligations and DORA testing are extremely challenging for many teams.

Our interim experts bridge capacity bottlenecks – especially for:

• AI safety audits in accordance with the AI Act

• Contingency plans for AI systems (NIS2/DORA)

• Skilled labour shortages in critical infrastructure

Benefits:

+ Immediate regulatory capacity to act

+ AI-specific incident response strategies

+ Relief for your core workforce
