WHO WE ARE

Managing companies securely with GRC!

Corporate governance is a must in order to ensure the competitiveness and value enhancement of companies. Together with risk and compliance management and an internal control system, it serves to manage the company.

Early detection and targeted prevention are the best protection against risks. Successful risk management is therefore essential for the existence and success of a company. Compliance management fulfills the principles of responsible corporate management and monitoring by providing evidence of compliance with requirements and guidelines. This is additionally monitored by an internal control system.

We have set ourselves the goal of enabling companies to achieve efficient and effective GRC management!

What customers say about HITGuard

"Overall, the implementation of HITGuard has not only streamlined our processes, but also raised the security and effectiveness of our services to a new level. Our success story with HITGuard is proof that the right software solution can make all the difference – in our case, a difference that lays the foundation for sustainable success in the IT security industry."

Julian Tió Valenzuela

Datenschutzbeauftragter-ISMS - G.I.P. S.à r.l.

"With the implementation of HITGuard, we have completed our information security management system. With HITGuard, we can not only use our ISMS resources efficiently, but have also gained a better understanding and greater acceptance in the collaboration to achieve our information security goals. A customized standard product - that is not a contradiction with HITGuard. Made by real professionals!!!"

Herwig Binder, MSc

Head of IT - VAMED-KMB Krankenhausmanagement und Betriebsführungsges.m.b.H

"When operating an ISMS, the supreme discipline is the management of measures and the functioning of an internal control system. This particularly affects those responsible for management systems in companies that, due to their size or geographical distribution, are dependent on "distributed cooperation across the organization chart". On the other hand, it must be as easy and intuitive as possible for the people concerned to work together in order to support the ISMS in a time-efficient manner. HITGuard makes all of this possible, which is why we rely on the use of this tool!"

Stefan Jakoubi

CISO & Head of Professional Services - SBA Research gGmbH

"As a lawyer, I mainly advise our customers on compliance and GDPR management. With the HITGuard knowledge databases, I have a free hand to provide my customers with checklists for compliance audits as well as recommendations for measures and controls. I can document the results of my audits at the customer's premises and make them available on a shared communication platform via HITGuard."
