What We Do

Services

• Assessment

  We provide assessment services such as penetration testing, audits, red teaming, and (closed-source) product evaluations. While we have developed many defined testing methodologies for different technologies, we mainly focus on highly technical and individual assessments. Examples for specialized assessment expertise comprise IoT/embedded/industrial/medical devices, cloud/virtualization/hosting platforms, Microsoft & Active Directory environments, or network/security appliances.

• Consulting

  Using the insight from (offensive) assessment projects, we also support our customers during design, implementation, and approval of their IT landscapes by offering design/concept/process reviews, security concept development, risk assessments, product evaluation, or network (security) design.

• Active Directory-, Azure- & Windows OS Platform Security Services

  In the space of Active Directory, Azure and Windows OS platform security, we provide a wide range of security services from Active Directory assessments to highly individual analysis projects based on specific customer questions and requirements for selected Microsoft products. Typical services we provide can be found here.

• Red Teaming

  We understand Red Teaming as a holistic assessment of established security measures and its effectiveness. In contrast to classical penetration testing, red teaming includes methods of assessing physical security and specifically considers the human element. As red teaming potentially includes methods of social engineering, appropriate projects are always processed in close cooperation with ERNW’s internal ethics committee.

• Artificial Intelligence Security

  Developing and implementing new products based on artificial intelligence, particularly generative AI, requires a comprehensive understanding of the associated risks. We assist our customers in recognizing these risks and offer services to evaluate the security of AI technologies from the design phase through to implementation and usage.

• Digital Forensics & Incident Analysis/Response

  We support our customers in implementing incident response processes/preparation as well as in analyzing occurred or suspected incidents. Following common incident response process models, we offer the development of incident preparation plans, immediate and on-site incident response and malware analysis, as well as the compilation of technical forensic reports.

• Training & Knowledge Transfer

  We offer training and knowledge transfer for most areas of IT security. The types of trainings range from video content over on-site trainings to gamified IT security challenges. Our public training is exclusively offered by our partner HM Training Solutions or during our TROOPERS conference.

• Research

  Following our knowledge-driven company culture, we offer research services to work on both scientific and pragmatic problems in the IT security space. Past funded research activities focused on Security Awareness, Digital Forensics, Reverse Engineering & Vulnerability Analysis, and telecommunications security. Future activities are coordinated by ERNW Research.

• Secure IT Operations

  The secure operation of IT systems can be a very specialized task requiring expert knowledge. We are offering the operation of both IT services in a secure way as well as the (secure) operation of IT security services (such as [Web] Application Firewalls, IDPS, or SIEM systems).
