It was a special premiere for TEAL: together with our partner FB Pro GmbH, we were not only represented there as an exhibitor for the first time, but were also able to offer real added value for the 40 or so participants with our workshop &#8220;Maximized resilience through system hardening, risk-based measures and training&#8221;.

With around 40 participants, the workshop was as well attended as we had hoped and offered not only theoretical insights, but also tangible solutions for the challenges of modern IT security strategies.<\/p>\n<p>The central topics of the workshop included:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li><strong>System hardening as the key to resilience<\/strong>: Hardening IT systems (servers, clients) is an essential step in counteracting attacks preventively. We have shown how common security frameworks such as CIS, BSI or the Microsoft Security Baselines not only create regulatory compliance (DORA, NIS2, KRITIS and ISO27001), but also represent a first step towards a zero-trust model. With automated processes and traceable documentation, system hardening becomes a sustainable security measure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Risk-based approach and knowledge building<\/strong>: A forward-looking IT security approach requires a risk-based perspective. Especially when hardening Active Directory or Entra, prioritization and impact assessment through a recurring risk analysis process is essential. We explained how targeted measures can prevent total loss of identity systems and create effective security solutions in the long term. Our proven security assessment, which includes a risk analysis and roadmap development, serves as a starting point.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Sustainability through the TEAL Health Check: <\/strong>Safety measures are only effective if they are continuously reviewed and adapted, and regular activities are carried out With the TEAL Health Check, we offer a solution to ensure the effectiveness of measures, even after Teal has left the project. In the end, YOU have to be able to do it on your own \ud83d\ude0a<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;
