Starting point

NIS2 obligations as a KRITIS operator, no security team, no CISO, no documented incident response processes.

Solution & result

Complete cybersecurity package: SOC as a service, CISO as a service, incident response playbooks, NIS2 compliance program.

NIS2 compliance achieved in 12 weeks, first simulated incident detected and escalated in 8 minutes, BSA reporting processes documented.

The problem

Cybersecurity requires expertise — which SMEs can hardly afford

  • An in-house CISO costs €120,000–180,000 in annual salary — uneconomical for most SMEs
  • NIS2 makes managing directors personally liable for cybersecurity incidents — without a documented security program, that is a significant risk
  • Attacks don’t happen during office hours — without 24/7 monitoring, hours pass before detection
Our answer

Enterprise security as a managed service — at an SME price

  • CISO as a service: strategic security responsibility, policy development and NIS2 compliance for a fraction of the cost of an in-house CISO
  • 24/7 SOC monitoring: security analysts watch your systems around the clock and respond within minutes
  • Complete incident response playbooks for all relevant attack scenarios — no chaos when it happens

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about Cybersecurity Services at a glance.

01What is SOC as a service?+

A security operations center (SOC) is a team of security analysts that monitors your IT systems for threats around the clock. "As a service" means you buy this capacity from us monthly instead of building your own team. Response times and escalation processes are defined by contract.

02What does a CISO as a service do?+

The external CISO takes on strategic security responsibility: developing the IT security strategy, creating policies, steering the security program, managing NIS2 compliance and reporting to management and supervisory bodies. Typically 1–2 days per month, on-site or remote.

03How much does cybersecurity as a service cost?+

SOC as a service for SMEs from €990/month (up to 50 endpoints). CISO as a service from €1,500/month. A complete cybersecurity package (SOC + CISO + incident response) typically costs €2,500–5,000/month — a fraction of an in-house security team.

04What happens when an attack is detected?+

The SOC team automatically isolates affected systems and immediately escalates to your contact person (even at night). We have predefined incident response playbooks for all attack scenarios — no improvising in an emergency. The response time is contractually guaranteed.

05How quickly can we get started?+

Onboarding in 2–4 weeks: security assessment → SOC connection → SIEM configuration → playbook development → go-live. From day 1 of the connection, your systems are monitored.

06Do we have to comply with NIS2 as an SME?+

That depends on your industry and number of employees. NIS2 applies to medium-sized and large companies (50+ employees or €10 million in revenue) in critical sectors — energy, health, transport, finance, IT, water, waste and more. We check for free whether you are affected.
