Holistic IT Security

How secure is my business against hacker attacks? An IT security assessment examines your entire IT environment from a technical and procedural perspective and subjects it to a thorough test.

More and more companies are facing the threat of cyber attacks. A security breach can have serious consequences: data loss, business disruption, financial loss, and damage to your company's reputation. This is why a comprehensive IT security assessment is essential in order to identify and address potential vulnerabilities in your business, thereby improving your security management. Our IT security assessment looks at all aspects of your IT security, including your infrastructure, software, applications, and processes.

More specifically, our security assessment uses interviews to check procedural issues such as backups, business continuity plans, monitoring, and patch management. Together with the relevant departments, we review relevant processes and take a random look at the configurations. Where it makes sense, we also conduct technical spot checks on the risk minimization measures implemented.

How can I raise awareness of IT security in my team? Through workshops that cover various topics related to IT security. The experts at codecentric AG offer workshops that focus on web applications, in which they explain security vulnerabilities and demonstrate them vividly in practice.

IT security is important today, especially when you consider how sophisticated the attack techniques of cybercriminals have become. Knowing where potential vulnerabilities and targets lie will help you enormously in providing your organization with the best possible protection. We at codecentric have created special workshops to share this knowledge with you. Our experts will give you an insight into the most important topics related to IT security in exciting presentations and live hacking demonstrations. Our goal is to provide you with sound basic knowledge or to expand the knowledge you already have.

Is my data safe in the cloud? Today, cloud providers offer a variety of security measures to protect your data in the cloud. Many of these measures, however, entail additional costs and burdens. That's why we check for you whether your cloud environment meets the latest security standards and only recommend security measures that truly match your security needs.

The cloud provider takes responsibility for the security of the cloud, while you as a customer need to ensure the security of your resources within the cloud. We offer a cloud security assessment to carefully review and analyze your cloud environment. In this assessment, we examine the security settings of your users, services and data storage in the cloud. It covers the protection of access and identity data, network security, data security, and compliance verification. We also assess the risks and threats posed by cyber attacks and data loss. The assessment provides you with a detailed overview of the current security status of your cloud, and based on this, we recommend effective security improvement measures.

Security is an important aspect of software development that you should consider right from the start. But what about secure software development? Our experts at codecentric will assist you in all phases of the development process – tailored to your individual needs.

It's no secret that IT security often comes last in the software development process. You schedule a security assessment or a penetration test for shortly before the software is due to go live and then you try to fix as many of the issues identified as possible. Such frantic scenarios are not uncommon, are they?

This not only causes stress, but can also cost a small fortune. And sometimes the software even has to go live with known security vulnerabilities. We aim to change this by offering you our Secure Software Development Lifecycle (SSDLC).

SSDLC is a software development method that focuses on security from the start and through the whole process. It can minimize risks and costs while improving the quality of the software.

Everyone in the team is on board – from the initial concept to the final design, everyone works together with a focus on security. Our approach is iterative and data-driven, enabling continuous improvement for processes as well as the team.

You may also be familiar with the concept as “shift left security”. It is an approach that aims to bring IT security into the development process at an early stage. When it comes to practical implementation, this means: Safety concerns are at the top of the agenda, not at the bottom. Do you fancy trying something new?
