The digital industry
Data centre operators, cloud providers, internet services, DNS and IXPs are the backbone of the digital economy. Even a few minutes of cloud platform outage can halt hundreds of online shops and banking apps; service disruption can affect millions simultaneously.
NIS2 Directive provisions explicitly covers digital infrastructure, and regulated customers include contract clauses that oblige even smaller SaaS and MSP providers to maintain appropriate levels of security.
Use cases
- Segmentation – isolating customer zones in data centres, separating admin networks from service layers, enabling deep inspection firewalls for API and DNS traffic
- 24/7/365 monitoring – round-the-clock event correlation across servers, container platforms, cloud services and WAFs with automated anomaly blocking
- Incident response – ready procedures to isolate cloud nodes, rapid service restoration and appropriate reporting as part of incident management
- NIS2/ISO 27001 compliance audit – policy reviews, portal and API penetration tests, workshops for boards and DevOps teams
- Ransomware resilience – off-site offline copies, immutable versions, regular environment recovery tests across deployment models
- Training for DevOps and help desk teams – secure coding practices, key management, swift identification of admin-targeted phishing
Does your organisation need to enhance cybersecurity in a data centre, cloud or SaaS? Contact us - we'll help you meet NIS2 and the expectations of your most demanding customers
How we help the digital industry
Why target digital infrastructure?
- Multiplier effect – compromising one managed service operator can open access to hundreds of clients and millions of end users
- Monetising downtime – every minute of cloud or data centre unavailability creates losses, contractual penalties and pressure to pay quickly
- Global exposure – internet infrastructure is continuously scanned and probed by attackers worldwide
Most common threats
- DDoS attacks crippling client portals and APIs
- Ransomware encrypting VMs or backup repositories
- Public cloud misconfiguration causing data leaks
- Software supply chain compromise (e.g. malicious libraries)
How we help the digital sector
- We audit data centres, cloud platforms and DNS services, supporting compliance (e.g. NIS2, DORA, ISO 27001)
- We design zero trust architecture and automated safety policy enforcement
- We build Information Security Management Systems (ISMS) and support certification (e.g. ISO 27001 / ISO 22301)
- We support creation of Incident Response procedures and regulatory reporting
- We develop full policy, runbook and recovery test plans required by regulated clients
- We operate a Security Operations Centre (SOC) with 24/7/365 monitoring and Threat Intelligence for the digital sector
- We conduct resilience tests, API and container pentests, DDoS readiness tests
- We develop BCP/DR plans and exercises to restore key services after outages
- We prepare smaller SaaS and MSP providers to meet contractual requirements so they can serve critical clients
