IT-Health Check

Comprehensive assessment of IT infrastructure, processes, and security based on best practices to identify vulnerabilities and highlight opportunities for optimization

Challenges for Businesses

  • Outdated IT systems → High risks & downtime

  • Lack of transparency → IT vulnerabilities go undetected

  • Inadequate security measures → Cyber threats & compliance risks

Our Consulting Services

  • Analysis of the IT infrastructure → Status, performance, scalability

  • Security Audit & Vulnerability Assessment → Identify Risks

  • License & Cost Review → Identify Opportunities for Optimization

  • Recommendations & Roadmap → Steps for Future-Proof IT

Expected benefits for you

  • A clear overview of the state of the IT infrastructure

  • Improved security & protection against system failures

  • Reduced operating costs & opportunities for optimization

Our Approach

  1. Assessment & Data Collection

Provide transparency into the current IT landscape

  • Interviews with IT and business departments

  • Assessment of System Architecture, Applications, and Infrastructure

  • Documentation of existing security and compliance policies

  1. Analysis & Evaluation

Identification of vulnerabilities and bottlenecks

  • Technical review (e.g., networks, servers, cloud)

  • Security checks (vulnerability assessments, penetration tests)

  • Performance and Stability Assessment of the Systems

  • Compliance Review (DSGVO, ISO 27001, Internal Policies)

  1. Benchmarking & Risk Analysis

Comparison of the results with best practices

  • Alignment with industry standards and IT frameworks (ITIL, NIST, COBIT)

  • Assessment of the identified risks by criticality

  • Prioritizing Areas of Action (Quick Wins vs. Long-Term Measures)

  1. Recommendations for Action & Roadmap

Implementation of specific improvement measures

  • Definition of a prioritized action roadmap

  • Identification of technical, organizational, and strategic improvements

  • Recommendations for investments and optimizations to minimize risk

  • Presentation of the results and a recommendation for management

IT Review & Risk Analysis: Assessment, Benchmarking, and an Actionable Roadmap

Do you want to know how stable, secure, and future-proof your IT infrastructure really is—and which measures will have the greatest impact? In our structured IT review, we analyze your current operational and security status, compare it against established standards (e.g., ISO 27001, BSI, ITIL, NIST), and provide prioritized recommendations for action, including quick wins and an optional roadmap.

Our Approach (Scope of Work)

We’ll start with a joint kick-off meeting to define the scope, objectives, and review process:

  • Kickoff Workshop with IT Leadership & Management
  • Definition of focus areas (e.g., infrastructure, processes, security, organization)
  • Definition of audit criteria & standards (best practices, ISO/ITIL/COBIT)
  • Coordinating the review period, system boundaries, and procedure
  • Project Communication, Roles, and Responsibilities

Result: Project plan & goal definition, communication structure, and review checklist.

We gather all relevant information to get a complete picture of your current IT infrastructure:

  • Review of key documents (IT strategy, organizational chart, policies, SLAs, contracts, license overviews)
  • Collection of technical documents (network diagrams, system overviews, monitoring and backup reports)
  • Structured interviews with IT staff and key personnel from the business units
  • On-site inspections (e.g., data center, IT workstations, relevant hardware)
  • Consolidation of the database and initial validation

Results: Interview analysis, process/system observation logs, and summary of critical findings.

We evaluate operations, security, and documentation quality and identify vulnerabilities in live environments:

  • Analysis of operational and safety logs
  • Review of documentation quality (e.g., change management, maintenance history)
  • On-site assessment of data centers, workstations, and critical hardware
  • Monitoring operational processes within the organization (e.g., incident and change management)
  • Inclusion of soft factors (e.g., user satisfaction, availability of expertise, workload)

Result: Documentation review, technical baseline, and documented vulnerabilities.

We compare the current state with standards and prioritize risks based on likelihood and impact:

  • Alignment with best practices and standards (e.g., ISO 27001, BSI IT-Grundschutz, ITIL, NIST)
  • Identification and prioritization of vulnerabilities
  • Risk assessment (probability × impact)
  • Identification of areas requiring action in the organization, infrastructure, security, and processes

Result: Risk and vulnerability profile, including prioritization and action items for each topic area.

We identify specific actions and develop an actionable roadmap, including quick wins:

  • Developing specific measures to address the weaknesses
  • Classification by impact, effort, and dependencies
  • Identification of quick wins and immediate actions
  • Development of medium- and long-term action plans
  • Optional: Integration into ongoing projects/programs

Result: A prioritized list of actions, including quick wins, as well as a roadmap (optional) for structured implementation.

We prepare the results so they are ready for decision-making and assist in determining the next steps:

  • Preparation of a comprehensive management report
  • Presentation of results and discussion of scenarios/options
  • Recommendations for next steps (optional roadmap)
  • Communication Tools for Departments

Result: Management report & presentation, including recommendations for action and an executive summary.
