Technical Consulting

Project-based support for security and architecture-related technical challenges.

Consulting is applied where technical issues need to be classified in a structured manner and evaluated on a sound, technical basis.

Typical scenarios include security- or architecture-related challenges where reliable and well-founded decision-making is required.

Service Philosophy

BitStream understands consulting as a complementary service to software development and technical product engineering.

The focus is on clearly defined projects with an emphasis on technical classification, analysis, and conceptual work.

  • Analysis and classification of security-relevant system states
  • Evaluation of existing client and server architectures
  • Support for security- or architecture-related projects
  • Technical conception in the area of automation and security

Consulting Areas

    Target architectures, blueprints, and cloud roadmaps; tenant design and governance; client architectures up to six-digit endpoint counts.
  • Security and Hardening
    Hardening and auditing based on BSI IT-Grundschutz, CIS Benchmarks, and Microsoft Security Baselines; Active Directory tiering, privileged access, modern authentication.
  • Regulated Environments: KRITIS, NIS2, DORA, TISAX
    Building and securing IT landscapes in regulated industries - from critical-infrastructure operators and financial institutions with DORA requirements to defence-related organizations. Developed from real-world projects.

This is backed by more than 20 years of consulting experience with federal authorities, critical-infrastructure operators, large enterprises, and organizations in the defence sector.

AI Integration - a service area under development

BitStream uses AI productively within its own organization - from AI-supported analysis in SecCheck to AI assistants in internal workflows, EU-hosted and GDPR-compliant.

Out of this practice, a new consulting area is currently taking shape: supporting organizations in integrating AI into existing processes securely - with clear responsibilities, traceable results, and without shifting professional responsibility to machines.

This offering is under development. If the topic is on your agenda, we welcome an early conversation.

Scope Limitations

BitStream deliberately does not provide general IT consulting, project-independent body leasing, or permanently outsourced operational services.
