Cyber Risk & Resilience Advisory

Cyber risks are business risks.

Regulatory pressure, volatile supply chains, and increasingly complex threats are challenging management teams. We translate technical risks into informed business decisions and measurable resilience for CISOs, CIOs, and boards of directors.

From compliance to true resilience

Many organizations invest significant resources in compliance-driven initiatives without meaningfully improving their actual resilience when a crisis occurs. Together with your teams, we break down silos and take a holistic approach to managing cyber risk, from strategic governance and the protection of your OT production systems to resilient incident response capabilities. Practical, collaborative and results-driven.

Assessment of your organization's current maturity level against the requirements of the NIS2 Directive at both national and European levels.

Your Benefit:
Gain clarity on regulatory requirements, identify existing gaps, and receive concrete recommendations to achieve compliance while reducing personal liability risks for executives and board members.

Design and implementation of compliant reporting, escalation, and communication processes in line with regulatory requirements.

Your Benefit:
Ensure regulatory reporting deadlines are met reliably in the event of a cyber incident. Reduce liability, regulatory, and reputational risks while strengthening your organization’s ability to respond effectively and with confidence.

Management training covering executive responsibilities, liability risks, governance requirements, and strategic cyber risk management.

Your Benefit:
Board members and executives gain a clear understanding of their regulatory obligations, make more informed decisions, and strengthen the organization’s governance capabilities for the long term.

In-depth assessment of industrial control systems (ICS), production environments, and operational technology (OT) infrastructures, focusing on security risks, network segmentation, and operational resilience.

Your Benefit:
Gain visibility into risks affecting production, availability, and business continuity. Security measures can be prioritized and implemented in a targeted manner without disrupting operations or impacting productivity.

Assessment of critical suppliers, service providers, and business partners with regard to cyber risks, regulatory requirements, and business dependencies.

Your Benefit:
Identify supply chain risks at an early stage, reduce critical dependencies, and demonstrate compliance with regulatory obligations and customer requirements with confidence.

Cyber risk assessment of target companies in the context of M&A transactions, private equity investments, strategic investments, and transformation initiatives. Evaluation of security maturity, regulatory exposure, technical vulnerabilities, operational resilience, and potential value creation opportunities.

Your Benefit:
Cyber risks become visible and financially assessable before a transaction takes place. This enables better-informed investment decisions, reduces integration risks, and helps avoid unexpected costs and liabilities after closing.

2. Cyber Resilience & Recovery Readiness

Measurable cyber resilience instead of compliance for compliance’s sake. Your organization remains operational even under crisis conditions, minimizes downtime, and demonstrates the proven ability to restore critical business processes quickly and in a controlled manner following a cyberattack.

Review, optimization, or development of cyber incident and crisis response plans.

Your Benefit: Ensure that all stakeholders clearly understand their roles, responsibilities, and escalation paths in the event of a crisis. This enables faster decision-making, improves coordination, and saves valuable time when it matters most.

Implementation and continuous enhancement of robust Business Continuity Management (BCM) frameworks based on proven industry standards.

Your Benefit: Ensure that critical business processes remain operational even in the face of cyberattacks, system outages, or supply chain disruptions. This minimizes business interruption, reduces financial impact, and strengthens overall organizational resilience.

Assessment of your organization’s incident response capabilities based on NIST 800-61 Rev. 3, with a focus on processes, organizational structures, and response competencies.

Your Benefit: Understand how quickly and effectively your organization can respond to cyber incidents before they occur. Identify targeted measures to improve response times, strengthen incident handling capabilities, and measurably reduce the impact of cyberattacks.

Real-world attack simulations targeting critical IT, cloud, and OT environments to identify exploitable vulnerabilities and security weaknesses.

Your Benefit: Security gaps are uncovered from an attacker’s perspective, providing a clear understanding of your actual exposure. This enables targeted investment decisions and prioritization of remediation efforts where they deliver the greatest risk reduction.

Simulation of realistic cyber crisis scenarios involving executive leadership, business functions, and IT teams.

Your Benefit: Executives and crisis management teams gain confidence in making critical decisions under pressure. Your organization becomes better prepared to respond effectively during a cyber incident, reducing downtime, minimizing reputational damage, and accelerating recovery.

Assessment and optimization of recovery strategies, recovery processes, and ransomware-resilient backup frameworks.

Your Benefit: Critical systems and data can be restored significantly faster following a cyberattack. This reduces business recovery time, minimizes operational disruption, and strengthens long-term resilience against ransomware and other disruptive cyber threats.

3. Leadership, Technology & Transformation

Technology investments become more targeted, security programs more effective, and management decisions more informed and defensible. This creates sustainable security capabilities that support cyber resilience, regulatory compliance, and business success in equal measure.

Technical security assessment of critical IT, cloud, and OT environments to identify vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and structural security risks.

Your Benefit: Gain an objective view of your current security posture and a clear understanding of which risks should be addressed first to achieve the greatest reduction in cyber risk and the highest security impact.

Experienced security leadership on demand to oversee security programs, ISMS implementations, compliance initiatives, and technology transformation projects.

Your Benefit: Gain immediate access to senior-level cybersecurity expertise and leadership capacity without the need to build long-term internal resources. Projects benefit from greater speed, stronger governance, and increased management buy-in.

Independent support for RFI and RFP processes, technology evaluations, and the assessment of target architectures and solution strategies.

Your Benefit: Technology investments are assessed objectively and aligned with actual business requirements and risk priorities. This helps avoid costly misinvestments, reduce unnecessary complexity, and ensure a sustainable, future-ready security architecture.

Management of complex cybersecurity and OT projects with a focus on timelines, budget control, quality assurance, and sustainable implementation.
