Preparation & Response
With the Incident Response Readiness Check, our experts assess how well your organisation is prepared for IT security incidents. In workshops, we analyse processes as well as technical and organisational measures. We also assess your organisation’s maturity level and identify specific areas for improvement, including with regard to requirements such as NIS-2, DORA, the GDPR, CRA and BSIG.

Despite high security standards, cyberattacks and IT security incidents cannot be completely prevented. It is therefore important to prepare for an emergency through incident readiness, so as to be able to respond quickly and in a planned manner should a security incident occur. The aim is to ensure that organisations are optimally prepared to deal with a security incident by implementing technical and organisational measures and establishing key tools and processes.
As part of an Incident Response Readiness Check, we first assess your response capabilities. In doing so, we evaluate the established processes as well as technical and organisational measures and produce an independent assessment of the maturity level of your incident readiness. We also identify areas for improvement and specific courses of action.
The Incident Response Readiness Check provides you with a clear picture of your current response capability and specific areas for improvement. Your benefits at a glance:
The better prepared you are, the quicker and more effectively you can respond to a security incident. Use the Incident Response Readiness Check to identify areas for improvement at an early stage. Contact our experts for a no-obligation discussion.
The more quickly an incident is systematically categorised and contained, the more effectively damage can be limited and the ability to act safeguarded.

With TÜVIT, you can rely on an independent partner with many years’ experience in IT security. Our experts combine technical expertise, an understanding of regulatory requirements and practical experience gained from real-world security incidents. This ensures you receive a well-founded, transparent assessment and concrete guidance for the further development of your incident response capabilities.
The Incident Response Readiness Check helps you to identify weaknesses in your incident response strategy at an early stage, before they can lead to serious problems.
You will receive an overview of your organisation’s ability to manage security incidents, including specific recommendations for optimising current processes and improving its defences.
Proactive preparation enables security incidents to be detected, isolated and resolved more quickly, thereby reducing financial losses, costs and downtime.
Preparing for security incidents helps you to comply with regulatory and sector-specific requirements and documentation obligations (e.g. DORA, NIS-2, GDPR, CRA, BSIG).
An Incident Response Readiness Check assesses how well an organisation is prepared to deal with IT security incidents and cyber-attacks. It analyses existing incident response processes as well as technical and organisational measures, determines the current level of maturity and identifies specific areas for improvement.
An Incident Response Readiness Check is suitable for organisations that wish to assess and improve their ability to respond to security incidents. It is particularly relevant where incident response processes are already in place and their effectiveness needs to be independently assessed, or where regulatory and sector-specific requirements must be met.
The audit covers technical and organisational incident response measures, security-related processes and existing attack detection solutions. In addition, security incidents that have already been resolved may be examined in order to identify vulnerabilities and areas for improvement.
The Incident Response Readiness Check begins with an initial consultation and an assessment of the current situation. During a workshop, relevant processes and measures are analysed on the basis of interviews and documentation. The experts then assess the level of maturity and draw up a report containing specific recommendations for action.
The assessment identifies weaknesses in preparations for IT security incidents at an early stage and provides clarity on current response capabilities. The measures derived from this can strengthen cyber resilience and help to detect, contain and resolve security incidents more quickly, as well as reduce damage and downtime.
Yes. A structured approach to preparing for security incidents helps organisations to comply with regulatory and sector-specific requirements, as well as documentation obligations. These may include, amongst others, requirements under NIS-2, DORA, the GDPR, the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and the BSIG.
