FB Pro GmbH is one of Europe’s leading providers and specialists in system hardening. This preventive security measure reduces the attack surface and proactively protects your IT systems against cyberattacks.
Our hardening solutions are standardized and automated. This enables companies, public authorities, financial service providers, and organizations – including those in the KRITIS sector – to significantly reduce their risks. At the same time, they efficiently comply with regulatory requirements such as NIS2, BSI-KritisV, ISO 27001, and DORA.
From analysis through conception and implementation to ongoing system hardening: Our team is committed to supporting our customers every step of the way. We can also provide the operation of the hardening solutions as a managed service upon request.
Why our vision and mission are so important
IT security, data protection, and compliance are challenges that businesses of all sizes employ. MUST deal with. Because information security is not a “nice to have”, but a “must have”.
The protection of IT systems, customer data and business secrets has to be a matter for the boss! If hackers and other “cyber gangsters” attack successfully, this can have serious consequences for companies. In the worst case, the future of the entire business is threatened.
We firmly believe that IT security, data protection and compliance must be firmly anchored in the DNA of companies. To ensure that this succeeds and can really be lived, we provide support.
Our primary goal is to automate all necessary processes as far as possible. This is achieved through special measures and with the automation tools that we develop ourselves. This brings our customers significantly more efficiency in their day-to-day IT work and sustainable protection of all systems.
Automated IT security: our software solutions
To increase the speed and also the quality of IT security, FB Pro GmbH relies on its own tools and applications. We use these ourselves at our customers and distribute them via a partner network.
These are our core products:
AuditTAP
The free AuditTAP checks the system hardening status of operating systems, web servers and applications. The checks are based on proven standards and recommendations, for example from Microsoft, the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) and the Center for Internet Security (CIS).
Enforce Administrator
Enforce Administrator enables IT systems to be reliably secured through technical measures. This system hardening is automated and continuously monitored, creating a kind of “self-healing system.”
All of our tools are developed entirely in Germany. As a result, we have been awarded the “Software made in Germany” and “IT Security made in EU” seals, among others.
Our methods and ways of working
SCRUM, Waterfall, Prince, classic IT operations, DevOps, ITIL or maturity-based models: no matter which methods or processes are used – at the end of the day, our customers rightly expect usable results.
To achieve this goal, we rely on 3P, PDCA, Fail Fast and Kaizen.
3P: Product – People – Process
In order to successfully introduce and operate an IT solution, not only the technology (“Product”) plays an important role. In addition to trained and available people (“People”), measurable, documented and lived processes (“Process”) are necessary. This is the only way to ensure reliable and secure operation.
PDCA: Plan – Do – Check – Act
No technique or process is so good that it cannot be optimized even further! It is important to always remain flexible and to improve the status quo step by step.
In our customer projects as well as in our internal tool development we fall back on the proven PDCA cycle. We question the existing, improve the existing, measure and analyze the results – and then the cycle starts all over again.
All of this is done true to our motto “Getting things done!”
Fail fast – and improve
Errors happen. They should – and as quickly as possible in our internal test runs and quality management cycles. This is the only way to reliably improve the desired result and achieve the necessary maturity to run stably and safely.
Kaizen: training, training, training
Change for the better, Kaizen, is a Japanese philosophy of life and work. The striving to continuously optimize one’s performance and results is only possible with knowledge.
All employees of FB Pro GmbH attend professional trainings several times a year and complete important certifications. In this way, we succeed in always being “up to date” and getting better step by step.
Corporate culture is more than just a buzzword
Many companies talk about having a positive corporate culture, but don’t actually live by it. We do things differently. At FB Pro, every employee matters—whether they’re an intern, a working student, or a full-time employee. Everyone should feel like part of the team from day one.
Our culture and way of working pay off. This is evident, among other things, in our top ratings on Kununu. With a score of 4.9 out of 5 stars, we’re above the IT industry average. As a result, we’ve been receiving Kununu’s “Top Company” award for many years.
Why does FB Pro receive such high ratings on the job review platform? Let’s hear from a few employees:
“What I particularly like about FB Pro is that the trust between colleagues and supervisors is exceptional. I find the freedom to contribute my own expertise and have it heard very important. As a working student, I’m offered a high degree of flexibility regarding working hours, since FB Pro understands that, as a student, my studies come first. And continuing education is highly valued here.”

“The very friendly yet professional colleagues make it easy to get started. And they motivate you to make your own contribution to the company—for example, by participating in various projects. What I also like: At FB Pro, open communication—including a culture of learning from mistakes—is truly put into practice.”
– Sven Schrader –
“As a developer, working on exciting tasks with cutting-edge technologies in the IT industry is very varied and a lot of fun for me. As a foreigner, I feel treated fairly here, as my performance and my culture are respected and valued by the executive board.”
