Cybersecurity & Compliance

Security that grows with you - proactive and future-proof.

Overview

What this service covers

Cybersecurity & Compliance at Alendris stands for Identity-First Security: Zero Trust architecture, identity & access management, threat detection and data protection — integrated, not patched together. We implement Microsoft Defender, Sentinel, CrowdStrike and Entra ID Governance, and support compliance projects for NIS2, ISO 27001, GDPR and BSI Grundschutz. Every access is verified, every device checked, every anomaly detected — regardless of whether internal or external. Security is not a project; it is a process.

Who for

Who this fits

Organizations in critical infrastructure (KRITIS, NIS2-regulated)
Mid-market and enterprise with regulatory requirements (ISO 27001, GDPR, TISAX)
Organizations after a security incident or with audit findings
IT leaders who want to implement Zero Trust pragmatically rather than theoretically

Services

Services in detail

Trust is not a security strategy. We implement a security model that verifies every access, regardless of whether it comes from inside or outside. Scaled to your company size, whether SME or enterprise.

Identity First SecurityLeast Privilege & Just in Time AccessNetwork & Access ControlSecurity Baseline & Monitoring

Identity is the first line of defense. We ensure that only the right people access the right resources at the right time - passwordless, context-based, and traceable.

Passwordless AuthenticationIdentity Governance & LifecycleSSO & App IntegrationPrivileged Access Management

Detect threats before they cause damage. We implement monitoring and detection based on Microsoft Sentinel, Defender, and CrowdStrike - scaled to your requirements, from the first alert to automated response.

Process

How an engagement runs

01
Security Assessment & Gap Analysis
Maturity level assessment against a framework (NIS2, ISO 27001, Zero Trust) with a prioritized action plan.
02
Quick wins & baseline hardening
Immediate reduction of the attack surface: Conditional Access, MFA, CIS benchmarks, least privilege.
03
Strategic implementation
Zero Trust rollout: Identity, endpoint, network, data protection — phased and risk-based.
04
Monitoring & audit readiness
SOC setup or managed security operations, documentation and evidence for audits.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about Cybersecurity & Compliance

If your employees work remotely, use cloud services, or process sensitive data: yes. Zero Trust is not a trend, but the answer to a changed threat landscape.

Yes, we accompany you from the gap analysis through implementation to audit preparation. Many of our clients have successfully certified with our support.

If you use our Managed Security Services, we react immediately. We analyze the incident, contain it, and support you in recovery. For everyone else, we offer incident response on demand.

NIS2 covers entities in 18 defined sectors (energy, health, finance, transport, digital services and others). Under section 28 BSIG: particularly important entities from 250 employees or more than EUR 50 million turnover plus more than EUR 43 million balance sheet total; important entities from 50 employees or with turnover and balance sheet total each above EUR 10 million. Suppliers and service providers may be affected indirectly through the supply chain. In Germany the directive is implemented through the NIS2UmsuCG, in force since 6 December 2025.

The German NIS2 implementation act (in force since 6 December 2025) provides for fines of up to €10 million — or up to 2% of total turnover where turnover exceeds €500 million — for particularly important entities, and up to €7 million or 1.4% for important entities. Management additionally bears a statutory duty to approve and supervise the risk-management measures and is liable for breaching it.

A complete NIS2 compliance program typically takes 6–12 months: gap analysis 3–4 weeks, prioritized quick wins 2–3 months, structural measures (governance, risk management, incident response, supply chain security) 4–9 months. We focus first on the largest compliance gaps.

Classical security relies on perimeter protection: everything inside the internal network is considered trustworthy. Zero Trust reverses this principle — every access is verified, regardless of location. Based on identity, device state and context. Particularly important for remote work, cloud services and SaaS — where the classical perimeter no longer exists.
