IT security

Security starts with a clear view of dependencies.

TM-Connect connects protection needs, infrastructure and responsibilities in a transparent security view. This creates prioritised measures and an implementable path.

Not every measure is equally urgent. What matters is which systems and processes keep operations running.

Starting points

Where security becomes operational.

Start with business risks and dependencies, not an arbitrary tool list.

01 · Attack surface

Evolved infrastructure

Locations, cloud services, access and endpoints are connected but not consistently documented.

02 · Identity

Unclear permissions

Accounts, roles and external access need transparent rules and ownership.

03 · Continuity

Outage and recovery

Backup, recovery and escalation paths must match actual protection needs.

04 · Control

Isolated measures

Security activities need priorities, coordination and operational follow-through.

Service view

Protection layers as one system.

Required building blocks are derived from the current situation and protection needs.

NET

Network & perimeter

Review segmentation, site boundaries, firewalls and access.

ID

Identity & access

Structure roles, multi-factor authentication and privileged access.

END

Endpoints & mobile work

Connect devices, company data and loss processes with working practices.

DATA

Backup & recovery

Assess recovery targets, ownership and business impact.

OPS

Operations & escalation

Organise ownership, reporting, response and external parties.

M365

Cloud workplaces

Include configuration, identity and data protection in Microsoft 365-related environments.

Starting situations

Typical starting situations.

01

Before NIS2 measures

Make the technical baseline and security gaps visible.

FAQ

IT security FAQs

Is this a complete security audit?

Scope and depth are agreed first. Initial orientation does not replace a specialised audit or legal assessment.

Which products does TM-Connect use?

Products are assessed only after protection needs, infrastructure and operations are understood.

How does security relate to NIS2?

NIS2 may involve technical and organisational security questions. Legal scope requires qualified assessment.

Can TM-Connect support implementation?

TM-Connect can support requirements, selection and coordination. Scope and responsibilities are agreed per project.
