The situation
Three forces driving IT leaders right now.
New obligations, new technologies, tight budgets: companies have to secure their IT, modernise it and run it cost-effectively, all at the same time. We help turn that into a clear route.
01
Regulation becomes a board matter
NIS2 and DORA make cybersecurity a duty of senior management – with registration, reporting obligations and personal accountability.
02
AI: from experiment to benefit
Boards expect measurable results. What matters is finding the use cases that pay off – and implementing them securely and with full control.
03
Modernising on a tight budget
Rising licence and operating costs limit room for manoeuvre. Legacy systems still need to be renewed – and the right experts for key roles are often missing.
Services
One company. Five chapters.
From IT strategy through infrastructure, security and software to AI applications: each chapter stands for a dedicated team with many years of project experience – brought together at MSC, with one point of contact for your project.
02 / 05The foundation
IT Infrastructure
Up and running. Around the clock.
We plan, modernise and operate your IT – so your team can focus on its business.
03 / 05The security chain
Cybersecurity
Security is a chain.
We test every link.
We bring clarity to your security requirements and support you from the first check to a fully operational ISMS.
04 / 05The hub
Software Development
Many technologies.
One system that works.
We develop software that fits your processes – from the first idea to reliable operation.
05 / 05The pattern
AI Applications
Recognise patterns.
Create value.
We find the AI applications that make your day-to-day work easier – and integrate them securely into your existing systems.

Ten highlights. Two projects per service – all others under References.
NIS2 applicability clarified for a corporate group
- Goal
- Clarify which German and Austrian companies of a European group fall under NIS2 – and which obligations this entails for senior management and IT.
- Our role
- Applicability and sector analysis under the BSIG (German BSI Act), analysis of operational, legal and regulatory responsibilities for each company, NIS2 gap analysis, training for senior management and IT departments – coordinated with external legal counsel.
- Result
- Applicability indications for each company, a prioritised picture of the gaps and a blueprint for group CISO governance of the national subsidiaries.
AI in the back office: a tool, not a replacement
- Goal
- Ease the load on back-office workflows with AI – as a tool for employees, not a replacement, with full control and demonstrable benefit.
- Our role
- Analysed and categorised back-office customer processes and assessed their automation potential; defined and implemented the concept for AI support; built a secure AI environment in line with the group’s security requirements; trained employees.
- Result
- Around 30 % less processing time – with AI support in day-to-day work and every AI activity under control.
From the group data centre to the subsidiaries’ cloud
- Goal
- Transfer IT infrastructure previously managed globally by the group to the subsidiaries – replacing local data centres with cloud solutions in the process.
- Our role
- Planned and implemented the migration: moved services to the Open Telekom Cloud, relocated telephone systems and networks, transferred applications from local data centres to cloud solutions.
- Result
- The subsidiaries manage their own infrastructure – on cloud platforms instead of in local data centres.
Clear decision paths for supplier management
- Goal
- Regain control of external service provider costs. Suppliers were coordinating partly with project management and partly directly with the board – unknowingly overruling project management decisions.
- Our role
- Governance due diligence: analysed communication channels, decisions, responsibilities (RACI) and meeting structures; defined and introduced ITIL-based governance.
- Result
- Project matters are coordinated with those responsible for the project. The board is only involved for status reports, escalations and budget questions.
Communication software in 36 languages
- Goal
- Synchronise contacts between phone and PC – for every phone made by the manufacturer.
- Our role
- Overall project management: managed development and test teams in Munich and at our partner centre in Brazil; responsible for release planning and the project budget.
- Result
- The software shipped with every phone.
NIS2 as a managed service
- Goal
- Provide lasting relief to companies that fall under NIS2 – without them having to set up their own information security staff unit.
- Our role
- Ongoing support from MSC: introduced and built a security framework based on CyberFundamentals (CyFun) 2025 and ISO/IEC 27001/27002; registered in the BSI portal as the client’s official NIS2 contact, took over communication with the BSI, tracked NIS2 findings, coordinated internal NIS2 audits.
- Result
- Obligations kept permanently in view – with MSC as the official contact for the BSI. Overall responsibility stays with senior management – the workload does not.
AI-assisted contract review with source references and approval
- Goal
- Review contracts faster and consistently against the company’s own policies – with AI, without giving up control.
- Our role
- Built a local knowledge base containing the company policies, implemented AI-assisted contract review against internal policies and had it generate suggestions for improvement. Every statement backed by a source reference; introduced quality gates to assess the AI results and approval gates for business sign-off.
- Result
- Contract reviews with traceable sources and concrete suggestions for improvement – the decision stays with people, safeguarded by quality and approval stages.
Mobile device management for 30,000 smartphones
- Goal
- Centrally managed smartphones as work devices – with secure access to email, calendar, tasks and intranet.
- Our role
- Project management for the roll-out of the MDM solution and IT concepts in line with company policies.
- Result
- Smartphones securely integrated into the corporate IT of an international group at a low total cost of ownership.
A new basis for outsourcing: consistent contracts and SLAs
- Goal
- Re-outsource IT services – based on reviewed governance and with robust contracts and service level agreements (SLAs).
- Our role
- Analysed framework agreements, statements of work and the application landscape, aligned business and IT requirements; introduced ITIL-based governance and responsibilities (RACI); drew up the framework agreement, templates for service provider contracts and SLAs for each engagement. Trained service providers on the new structure and supported the migration of services.
- Result
- New framework agreement and new statements of work with SLAs, KPIs and bonus/malus, operating processes introduced – agreed with the legal department, works council and suppliers.
Banking applications modernised and connected
- Goal
- Modernise existing banking applications – for up-to-date usability and direct data exchange with other financial institutions.
- Our role
- Modernisation of the applications, new UX design and extension of the back end with API interfaces to other financial institutions.
- Result
- Applications with an up-to-date interface that communicate directly with other financial institutions via APIs.

One point of contact in Starnberg
Project management and responsibility for quality stay with MSC. You talk to us – we manage the teams.
Capacity when it is needed
Software development as well as administration of networks and cloud environments, such as Cisco and AWS – with well-practised teams across several time zones.
Access under control
If we work directly in your systems, you decide in advance who gets access to what – via your own secured access points. For contracts for work, we deliver via CI/CD processes, with no access to your systems at all.
Research & Development
We solve what standard solutions cannot.
Through our own research and development, we design architectures for systems that keep working reliably even when the network does not – audit-proof, data-minimising and without downtime. This knowledge flows directly into your projects.
Offline-first & edge cloud
Data stays consistent even during network outages and synchronises automatically.
Audit-proof transactions
Fiscally relevant transactions fully signed and traceable.
Edge AI
Real-time voice control: speech recognition and biometric verification run directly on the device. This cuts the latency of a detour via the cloud – and protects your data.
Zero downtime & zero trust
Continued development during live operation, with tenants strictly separated.
Certified by the BSFZ (German Research Allowance Certification Office) as a research and development project.
