Our services

Cybersecurity for Defense and Public Infrastructure

Modern defense platforms and public sector systems are complex networks of interconnected sensors, embedded systems, and legacy technology, making them highly vulnerable to cyber threats. Each networked component, essential for operational superiority and public service delivery, introduces potential entry points for nation-state actors and other advanced threats. A single vulnerability could compromise mission success, public safety, or national security. As these systems become increasingly interconnected, exchanging sensitive operational and citizen data, the need for robust, real-time security solutions is critical to protect our advanced capabilities from emerging threats.

TARA as a service

TARA (Threat Analysis & Risk Assessment) is essential in automotive cybersecurity, guiding manufacturers and developers to enhance vehicle protection and compliance with ISO/SAE 21434. It encompasses threat identification from various sources, risk evaluation in terms of likelihood and impact, and the development of mitigation strategies. Notably, TARA is a dynamic process, requiring ongoing reassessment to address emerging vulnerabilities and adhere to evolving industry standards and practices in automotive cybersecurity.

Cybersecurity Consulting

Cybersecurity consulting encompasses expert evaluations and solution implementations to combat cyber threats. This includes identifying and assessing system vulnerabilities, evaluating risks, and designing comprehensive protection strategies. Consultants align these security measures with business objectives, enhancing organizational resilience through risk mitigation and strategic resource deployment. The process involves setting security goals, mapping processes, and integrating testing and validation, complemented by thorough documentation and training to ensure awareness and preparedness.

Penetration Testing

Penetration Testing involves simulated attacks on systems to uncover vulnerabilities before they're exploited by attackers. Its goal is to identify weaknesses in a system's defense, allowing organizations to proactively fortify their security. As cybersecurity threats evolve, regular penetration testing is critical, ensuring organizations can adapt and remain secure. This ongoing process is a key part of a comprehensive security strategy.

Cyber Security Management Systems

Cyber Security Management Systems (CSMS) offer a strategic framework for organizations to manage cybersecurity risks and safeguard digital assets, crucial for compliance with UNECE R155 regulations. It encompasses defining roles, responsibilities, and accountability, ensuring management involvement, and enhancing organizational cyber competence. The process includes risk identification, prioritization, design and testing of security controls, and risk reduction to acceptable levels. Additionally, it covers responses to cyber attacks or vulnerabilities and managing dependencies with suppliers and service providers, ensuring collaboration and compliance across the supply chain.

Compliancy Audits and Assessments

Compliance audits and assessments are vital for aligning organizational cybersecurity practices with standards such as ISO/SAE 21434, TISAX, and IEC/SAE 62443. They involve evaluating security measures against these benchmarks, identifying potential risks and vulnerabilities, and suggesting improvements. Regular assessments ensure continuous adaptation to new threats and compliance with evolving regulations, maintaining a robust cybersecurity posture.

Vulnerability Management and incident response

Vulnerability management is a continuous process for addressing cyber vulnerabilities, including identification, assessment, reporting, managing, and remediation across various systems. It's complemented by incident response, a planned approach for managing security incidents, encompassing detection, response, recovery, and learning from the incident to improve future security measures. Together, these processes ensure a proactive stance against cyber threats and a resilient recovery mechanism.

Cybersecurity for Production line

Robust cybersecurity practices are critical in the manufacturing sector to protect production lines and ensure infrastructure safety. The industry faces challenges from complex supply chains, the rise of Industrial IoT (IIoT) increasing attack surfaces, and the use of legacy systems. Key focus areas include securing network communications, implementing strict access controls, protecting endpoints, establishing efficient incident response mechanisms, and ongoing employee cybersecurity training. Continuous security assessments and updates, alongside collaboration with cybersecurity experts, are essential for adapting to emerging threats.

Cybersecurity for Medical Devices

Modern medical devices, packed with smart features and numerous embedded systems, are increasingly vulnerable to cyber threats. Each smart feature, essential for today's healthcare providers and patients, introduces potential entry points for hackers, where a single vulnerability could compromise critical systems and patient safety. As devices become more connected, exchanging real-time patient data, the importance of medical cybersecurity and the need for real-time security solutions become paramount to protect these advanced systems from emerging threats.

Ensuring Compliance and Protecting Patients

Meeting global regulatory expectations while maintaining innovation speed is crucial. At NORDCS GmbH, we align cybersecurity practices with medical standards and guidance such as FDA Cybersecurity, EU MDR, ISO 14971, IEC 81001, IEC 62304, and IEC 62443. Our approach integrates compliance, risk management, and proactive protection, helping manufacturers build secure-by-design products that protect both patients and brand reputation.
