Information security is more than compliance
The Xantaro Group’s integrated approach highlights the interplay between network, observability, and certification.
A look at current best practices shows: information security is no longer just an audit topic. Modern approaches rely on integrated management systems that connect security, quality, and business continuity.
The goal:
- Make risks transparent
- Standardize processes
- Strengthen resilience sustainably
Instead of isolated measures, this creates a holistic security approach that takes both technical and organizational aspects into account.
Rising requirements for information security, compliance, and IT operational stability are driving companies to align their security strategies more holistically. Traditional silo structures between security, network operations, and monitoring are no longer sufficient to reliably protect complex infrastructures.
Certified security as a foundation
A key success factor for modern IT organizations is the verifiable safeguarding of processes and services through recognized standards such as ISO 27001 or TISAX®.
In this context, the Xantaro Group—and thus NetDescribe as part of the group—was supported by HiSolutions in the further development and implementation of certification-ready security and operational processes.
HiSolutions has specialized for many years in implementing and auditing information security management systems (ISMS) and supports companies throughout the entire certification process—from gap analysis to a successful audit.
The goal: to further professionalize the internal structures within the Xantaro Group and consistently align them with international security standards.
The added value of the integrated approach
The combination of:
- certified information security processes (ISMS / audit frameworks),
- technical observability in network operations,
- and managed services within the Xantaro Group
results in an end-to-end security model:
1. Security becomes measurable
Through complete transparency across the network, systems, and dependencies.
2. Security becomes operational
Through integration into monitoring, automation, and operational processes.
3. Security becomes auditable
Through structured certification and compliance approaches.
From certification to operational resilience
The collaboration clearly shows: a certification is not an endpoint, but a structural framework for continuous improvement.
This creates an approach that not only meets compliance requirements, but also enables true operational resilience in IT operations.
The result: Security at the highest level
- TISAX assessment level 3: The highest level of information security in the automotive industry. Successfully completed while meeting the strictest security requirements.
- ISO 27001 certification: Successfully certified with an expanded scope.
