Managed SOC, Offensive Security, and Incident Response From BDO Germany

BDO Cyber Security GmbH is the dedicated cybersecurity arm of BDO AG Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft, founded in 2018 and registered in Hamburg. It sits inside the wider BDO International network, which operates in more than 160 countries, giving its consulting work the audit and assurance context that German mid-market and enterprise clients already buy from BDO. Its customers are typically organizations that need continuous monitoring plus the governance documentation that regulators and auditors expect to see.

The Security Operations Center provides round-the-clock monitoring, correlating log and telemetry data to detect threats and trigger response. Offensive security covers vulnerability assessment and testing intended to find weaknesses before attackers do. Cyber strategy and governance work builds security frameworks, policies, and roadmaps tailored to the client. Business continuity and IT service continuity management addresses emergency preparedness and recovery planning. A separate incident response team handles organizations already dealing with an active cyberattack.

Combining managed detection with advisory services is the point of difference: one firm can run the SOC, test the environment, write the governance framework, and respond to an incident, which removes the coordination overhead of using separate providers. Services are delivered from BDO offices across Germany, and the SOC engagement can be paired with practical events and training. Reporting is oriented toward the compliance and audit evidence German regulated sectors require.
