IT Security Consulting
Clarity for security-related decisions
We help you understand risks, clarify compliance requirements and turn the conclusions of audits, tests or internal assessments into a concrete action plan.
Security starts with clarity. And clarity starts with understanding the context you are in.
What does IT security consulting mean?
We help you understand where the risks are, what obligations you have and which steps are worth taking next.
We don’t come with standard lists of recommendations or with solutions that only look good in a report. We start from your organisation’s reality: the systems you use, the available resources, compliance requirements and business objectives.
Consulting can include:
- IT risk assessment
- Defining security controls
- Internal policies and procedures
- Compliance support (NIS2, DORA, BNR, ASF, ADR, ANAF)
- Roadmaps and remediation plans
- IT security due diligence
- Support after audits, penetration tests or security incidents
In other words, if the audit tells you where you stand and testing shows you what vulnerabilities exist, consulting helps you decide what to do next.

Frequently asked questions
Start with a simple assessment and receive concrete steps within 24h.
What is the difference between consulting and a security audit?
The audit shows you where you stand at a given moment: what controls exist, how well they work and where there are non-conformities. Consulting goes further and helps you decide what to do with this information: which risks really matter, what needs to be fixed first and how to organise the next steps. In short, the audit makes the diagnosis and consulting builds the plan.
Do we need to do an audit first before we can start consulting?
Not necessarily. If you already have the results of an audit, a penetration test or an internal assessment, we start from those. If not, we begin with an analysis of the current situation, sized according to the organisation’s needs. The goal is to have enough clarity to make the right decisions, not to go through steps just for the sake of the process.
We have received the results of an audit or a penetration test from another provider. Can you help us put them into practice?
Yes. This is one of the situations in which consulting can add the most value. We analyse the findings, prioritise them according to risk and impact and turn them into a realistic remediation plan, tailored to the organisation’s resources. It doesn’t matter who carried out the initial assessment.
What do we do if the recommendations exceed the resources we have?
Recommendations must be adapted to the organisation, not the other way round. We split the measures into stages, identify simpler alternatives where possible and determine which risks can be accepted temporarily, in a deliberate and documented way. The goal is to build a plan that can be implemented, not an ideal one that is never put into practice.
How do we track progress once the action plan has been established?
The plan includes clear steps and deadlines, so that progress can be checked at any time. We periodically review the implementation status together, adjust priorities if there are changes in the organisation or in legislation and recommend, where appropriate, validation through an audit or penetration test.
