Why an IT security audit?

Digitalization opens up new opportunities - but also new areas of attack. Cyberattacks, ransomware attacks and internal security gaps threaten companies of all sizes. A structured IT security audit uncovers security gaps and creates a reliable basis for effective risk management - compliant with ISO 27001, TISAX®, NIS2 and CRA.

IT security refers to the protection of technical systems - e.g. networks, servers or computers - against attacks, failures or unauthorized access. Information security is broader: It protects all information and also takes into account organizational measures, processes and people. IT security is therefore a sub-area of information security.

An information security audit is a systematic review of a company's IT infrastructure and processes. The aim is to identify weaknesses, assess risks and develop specific measures to improve security.

An audit is particularly recommended for:

  • Companies with high data protection & IT security requirements
  • Organizations seeking certifications such as ISO 27001 or TISAX®
  • KRITIS operators and companies affected by the NIS2 directive

The process typically includes:

  1. Preliminary discussion & target definition
  2. Conformity check and verification of technical feasibility
  3. Determination of the maturity level, assessment of the current status and definition of measures to achieve the target status
  4. Results report with recommended measures - ready for direct transfer to your tools (e.g. Excel, ticket systems)
  5. Optional: implementation support

Our certified auditors analyze your IT security based on proven frameworks and legal requirements. We work with the following standards and norms, among others:

  • ISO/IEC 27001: Internationally recognized standard for information security management systems (ISMS)
  • TISAX®: Industry standard for information security in the automotive industry
  • NIS2 Directive: EU-wide requirements for the cyber security of critical infrastructures
  • SOC 2: Testing of security and control systems for service providers (especially in the cloud environment)
  • CRA (Cyber Resilience Act): EU regulation with binding cyber security requirements for all products with digital elements - from development and updates to reporting obligations for vulnerabilities

At least every 1-2 years - or in the event of significant changes in your organization or IT landscape (e.g. new software solutions, cloud migration, mergers).
