Cyber Security for the Public Sector

Public authorities operate heterogeneous IT landscapes with evolved interfaces, distributed end devices and increasing cloud usage. Security incidents are not detected across the board, vulnerabilities are rectified selectively and the response often only takes place after an incident has occurred. At the same time, legal security, availability and data protection are particularly important.

Security-relevant events are detected and prioritized in real time. A 24/7 SOC continuously monitors systems, analyzes incidents and controls the response according to clear processes. Vulnerability management, data and workplace protection as well as governance and compliance are interlinked so that risks become visible at an early stage and operations remain stable.

Together, we establish detection and response with the help of sensor technology and SIEM, linked to a 24/7 security operations center. We also implement vulnerability management, data security and compliance and governance modules. Depending on requirements, we secure cloud, data center, workplace, SAP and OT environments and integrate reporting and service processes for resilient regular operations.

Together with you, we develop a target picture for cyber security in the public sector and translate it into implementable governance. We clarify roles, responsibilities and escalation paths and set up compliance and verification processes so that they work on a day-to-day basis. Building on this, we prioritize measures based on risk, protection requirements and feasibility and create transparency about the security situation and progress.

Together, we implement detection capabilities with modern sensors and SIEM so that threats become visible in real time. Our 24/7 Security Operations Center continuously monitors, evaluates events and controls the response via defined processes to ensure that incidents are quickly contained. We integrate the relevant log sources, define use cases and alerts and establish reporting so that the situation, effectiveness and priorities remain transparent.

Together, we establish a vulnerability management system to systematically identify, assess and effectively eliminate weaknesses. We also secure data, workstations and, depending on the context, data center, cloud, SAP and OT environments so that protective measures are effective across the board. During operation, clear service processes, monitoring and continuous optimization ensure that the security level and availability remain stable and that measures are documented in a traceable manner.
