CISOIQ Description

CISOIQ is a German cybersecurity services firm that provides outsourced security programs to companies ranging from startups and scaleups to global enterprises. The company operates as a managed security function, offering services that span strategy, execution, and ongoing program management. Their core service offering is a fully outsourced CISO and security team model, where CISOIQ designs, runs, and scales a client's cybersecurity program end-to-end. This is positioned as a cost-effective alternative to building an in-house security team. CISOIQ also provides specialized services for high-stakes business events under a "Hypercare" offering, which covers IPO readiness, mergers and acquisitions, funding rounds, and investor due diligence. Additional services include compliance project delivery across frameworks such as ISO 27001, SOC 2, DORA, and PCI DSS; internal security posture assessments; and third-party due diligence evaluations of vendors, partners, or acquisition targets. The firm also offers an enablement service for existing CISOs and security practitioners who require an external advisory perspective when navigating complex or regulated environments. CISOIQ is led by two managing directors — Christian Matthies and Tobias Albrecht — who serve as operational practitioners within client engagements. The company's client portfolio includes well-known German and European organizations such as Zalando, TeamViewer, Sixt, Deutsche Börse Group, and Delivery Hero, among others. The firm is based in Germany, as indicated by its .de domain and the German entities listed among its clients and legal documentation.
