Do we need ISO 27001 or NIS2 compliance?

NIS2 applies to essential and important entities in specified sectors. ISO 27001 is not legally mandatory but is increasingly required by business partners, especially in finance, healthcare and manufacturing. We can assess whether these regulations apply to your organization.

How long does it take to achieve ISO 27001 certification?

Typically 6–12 months from gap analysis to certification audit, depending on the maturity of your current security practices and the size of your organization.

What happens if we experience a security incident?

For managed clients, we initiate our incident response process immediately — containment, analysis, remediation and recovery. For non-managed clients, we offer emergency response services on a best-effort basis.

Can you manage security alongside our existing IT team?

Absolutely. Many clients keep their internal IT for daily operations while relying on Helpio for security expertise. We complement your team, not replace it.

Cybersecurity & Compliance

Why Cybersecurity Can No Longer Be an Afterthought

Cyberattacks are no longer targeted only at large enterprises. Mid-sized companies are increasingly targeted precisely because they often lack dedicated security teams and rely on outdated defenses. Ransomware, phishing, supply chain attacks and data breaches can cripple operations and carry severe financial and reputational consequences.

At the same time, regulatory pressure is growing. The EU's NIS2 directive significantly expands the number of organizations required to implement cybersecurity measures and report incidents. ISO 27001 certification is increasingly expected by business partners and clients. Helpio helps you address both the technical and compliance dimensions of cybersecurity.

What We Deliver

Security Audit

We start with a comprehensive assessment of your current security posture. This includes infrastructure review, access management evaluation, patch management status, backup verification and vulnerability scanning. The result is a prioritized action plan with clear recommendations ranked by risk and effort.

Endpoint Protection

We deploy and manage next-generation endpoint protection (Sophos, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint) across your fleet. This includes real-time threat detection, automated response, device encryption enforcement and centralized management. Every endpoint — laptop, workstation, server — is monitored and protected.

Firewall & Network Security

We design, deploy and manage firewall solutions (Sophos, Cisco, Zyxel) with proper network segmentation, intrusion detection/prevention, VPN configuration and traffic analysis. Network security is the first line of defense, and we ensure it is configured correctly and monitored continuously.

ISO 27001 & NIS2 Compliance

We guide your organization through the process of achieving ISO 27001 certification or NIS2 compliance. This includes gap analysis, policy and procedure development, technical implementation of required controls, employee training and preparation for certification audits. We act as your external security advisor throughout the process.

Incident Response

We develop and test incident response plans so your organization knows exactly what to do when a security event occurs. This includes communication protocols, containment procedures, forensic analysis capabilities and recovery steps. For managed clients, we provide direct incident response support with defined response times.

Security Awareness Training

The human factor remains the most common attack vector. We provide security awareness training for your employees, including simulated phishing campaigns, best practices workshops and ongoing education. Training is tailored to your industry and the specific threats your organization faces.

How We Work

Cybersecurity engagements typically begin with a security audit. Based on findings, we create a remediation roadmap that balances risk reduction with budget and timeline constraints. Implementation is phased — we tackle critical vulnerabilities first, then systematically improve the overall security posture.

For ongoing protection, we offer managed security services that include continuous monitoring, regular vulnerability assessments, patch management and incident response. You receive monthly security reports with metrics and recommendations.
