CYBERSECURITY
Cybersecurity is everyone’s responsibility within your organisation. But how do you ensure that this responsibility is truly embraced? Conclusion helps organisations view security not merely as an IT issue, but as an integral part of business operations. Offering practical solutions, clear governance, and the courage to challenge the status quo.
Security starts with awareness, and never ends
In a digital world where threats are constantly evolving, cybersecurity is about more than just technology. It’s about people, processes and technology working seamlessly together. Conclusion supports organisations across the board: from building security awareness to 24/7 monitoring, and from compliance to supply chain protection.
Conclusion supports organisations at every stage of their security journey. Whether it’s ensuring compliance with laws and regulations, protection via our Security Operations Centre, or embedding security into the development pipeline: we think along, challenge assumptions, and take responsibility.
Security at Conclusion:
“Resilience comes from within”
True cybersecurity doesn’t come from top-down control, but from awareness on the ground. In this article, Roel Gloudemans, Director IT Risk & Compliance at Conclusion, explains how a culture of ownership makes organisations more resilient to modern threats. From phishing awareness to the rise of AI-driven attacks, discover why security starts with people who dare to ask the right questions.
The challenges organisations face
Patching and vulnerability management
Keeping systems up to date is one of the most common challenges. Organisations sometimes accept risks without fully understanding the potential consequences. We not only help identify vulnerabilities, but also engage in critical conversations when risks become unacceptable.
Compliance and regulation
From NIS2 to ISO 27001 and CSRD, organisations often struggle to meet all requirements. Conclusion provides not only the tools and expertise, but also shares its own policy documents and methodologies to help organisations get their compliance in order.
Supply chain security
How do you ensure that not only your own organisation, but also your suppliers, meet the right security standards? Within the Conclusion ecosystem, we monitor the entire supply chain, giving clients confidence in security across all layers.
Secure adoption of AI
The rise of AI introduces new security challenges. How do you ensure responsible implementation? Conclusion is working towards ISO certification for AI and supports clients with adoption consultants who ensure AI is deployed securely and in line with regulations.
Our approach: from awareness to protection
-
- The courage to challenge At Conclusion, we take our responsibility seriously. That means we’re not afraid to challenge clients when they consider accepting unacceptable risks. We act as a counterbalance and help organisations make well-informed decisions—because safety sometimes requires courageous conversations.
- Openness and knowledge sharing Our policy documents and methodologies are publicly available. While others may offer this as paid consultancy, we share our knowledge freely—because we believe a safer digital ecosystem starts with transparency and collaboration.
- Social responsibility If our Security Operations Centre detects phishing attacks, we share all relevant threat intelligence with government bodies such as the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC). In doing so, we not only protect our clients, but also contribute to the digital safety of the Netherlands.
Our security expertise
24/7 Security Operations Center
The Conclusion Security Operations Centre monitors both office (IT) and industrial (OT) environments around the clock. From threat management and vulnerability scanning to antivirus and Zero Trust—we detect threats and intervene before damage occurs.
Key Control Dashboard
The Key Control Dashboard supports organisations in setting up and maintaining their Information Security Management System (ISMS). The tool helps document policies, record measures, and prepare for ISO audits.
DevSecOps in application development
Security starts in the development phase. Our application companies embed security into every step of the development process—with automated code scans, secure development practices, and continuous checks throughout the pipeline.
SOC 2 certificering (DaVinci/Yellowtail)
For organisations looking to formalise their security governance, we offer guidance on SOC 2 certification—from gap analysis to implementation and audit preparation.
Theecosystem advantage
When you procure services within the Conclusion ecosystem, you benefit from a unique layer of security. While supply chains with external vendors often consist of separate entities you must monitor yourself, Conclusion ensures the entire chain is internally monitored for risks.
This means that if you source application development, hosting and management from different Conclusion companies, the entire supply chain remains within the ecosystem and is centrally monitored for security risks. Working with multiple external vendors? Then you’ll need to manage this yourself—often without full transparency. Within Conclusion, this is taken care of, giving you peace of mind when it comes to third-party risks.
