OUR OFFER TO YOU

Cybersecurity risk assessment for your machinery

The Cyber Resilience Act introduces new cybersecurity requirements for machinery manufacturers. We help you establish a structured risk assessment for your products, building on your existing processes, with manageable effort and clear outcomes.

A clear, reliable overview

From product boundaries and assets requiring protection to risks and concrete measures: transparent, traceable and centrally documented.

Informed decisions instead of debating scores

Identify outstanding risks and make informed decisions about how to address or consciously accept them. This provides a sound basis for management decisions and regulatory evidence.

Tailored to your resources

We can carry out the assessment for you or enable your team to conduct it independently. You retain flexibility while keeping valuable expertise within your organisation for the long term.

Valuable throughout the product lifecycle

The risk assessment evolves alongside your product and the changing threat landscape. This ensures that your assessment remains up to date and useful over the long term.

“IT security enables secure and sustainable digitalisation and is an integral part of our development process. Optimise your cyber resilience and benefit from our experience with proven and tested solutions.”

Secure software development – The key to IT security in your project 

For us, security in all phases of software development means: 

I. We understand your requirements:

We work out your security requirements and, together with you, find solutions that fit your company and business model.

II. We offer secure design and implementation:

We use security-by-design principles to ensure a secure software and system architecture right from the start. To reduce attack surfaces and avoid vulnerabilities, we use established IT security methods and tools such as SAST, IAM and security code reviews throughout the entire development process.

III. We make your operations secure:

We continuously harden your systems and work with a software bill of materials (SBOM) as standard in the area of IT security. This means you always know which components are in use and can see if your software is affected by security vulnerabilities. This means that important steps for ensuring IT security can be automated. In addition, we operate effective monitoring and vulnerability management and protect your systems against potential data loss.

IV. We ensure compliance with relevant standards:

We develop solutions that are safe and compliant. We work in accordance with the highest standards and norms, such as ISO 27001, 9001, 13485 and IEC 62443.

V. We keep ourselves updated on regulatory IT security requirements:

We always comply with the latest regulatory requirements, such as the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and the NIS2 Directive, and offer special services for this purpose.

IT security with XITASO: Your reliable partner in security matters

Our IT security experts are by your side for all security issues and offer customised solutions to protect your IT systems and infrastructure to the optimum.  

Penetration tests

We analyse your existing systems and simulate real world attacks in comprehensive penetration tests to check your IT security. We look at not just your IT, but also your OT environment. This means that our IT security measures and our realistic assessment of the security of your software landscape also extend to the machines within the network. In addition, measures are derived to further secure your systems. 

Threat analysis & risk assessment

Our experts use established methods such as STRIDE to systematically identify and assess potential threats to your systems. This allows us to precisely classify and prioritise risks. On this basis, we work with you to develop strategies and measures to improve your IT security in the long term.  

 

Security architecture review

We analyse and optimise your existing security architecture by applying proven methods and establishing zero trust architecture. We ensure that all components work together effectively to create a holistic IT security architecture that meets the highest security requirements.

Trainings

Empower your development team to ensure greater IT security by taking advantage of our practical training courses. We address topics such as DevSecOps, security by design and specific issues relating to your needs. This means that your team will be able to act as the first line of defence against IT threats. 

 

DevSecOps consulting

Our DevSecOps consulting service supports you in seamlessly integrating IT security practices into your development and operational processes. This allows us to strengthen the security architecture of your applications and at the same time increase the efficiency and agility of your software development.
