HiSolutions has been operating since 1992, making it one of the longer-standing consultancies focused on cybersecurity and IT management in the German-speaking market. With more than 380 employees across five offices - Berlin, Bonn, Frankfurt am Main, Nürnberg, and Wien - the firm handles roughly 1,500 projects per year for around 625 clients. Those clients span corporate enterprises, organizations, and public administration, which means the threat models and compliance regimes shift depending on the engagement.
The technical scope runs deep: Information Security, IT Management, IT Services and Operations, Organizational Transformation, and Digitalization. This isn't a shop that sells firewalls and walks away. The work spans governance frameworks, operational security posture, and the messy reality of getting organizations to actually change how they handle risk and infrastructure. The consultancy has been recognized as a quality leader in its segment and holds a "Highest Reputation" award, suggesting the client retention numbers back up the positioning.
For security professionals, the draw is volume and variety. A pipeline of 1,500 annual projects across public and private sector clients means exposure to different architectures, regulatory environments, and attack surfaces. The firm's longevity in the DACH region - over three decades - implies institutional knowledge that's hard to replicate, particularly when navigating German and Austrian compliance landscapes that don't map neatly onto US-centric frameworks.
