System Hardening for authorities & municipalities

Fundamentally secure municipal IT infrastructure

Secure. Compliant. Automated. This is how System Hardening can be for your authority’s IT infrastructure. We have a tried and tested solution for this.

Why is System Hardening essential for public authorities?

The IT landscape, including that of public administrations, is a popular target for cyber-attacks. The protection of sensitive citizen data and critical infrastructures, as well as compliance with legal requirements such as the NIS2 Directive, therefore requires the highest level of IT security.

In order to meet all these requirements and achieve the major goal of “digital sovereignty”, a solid foundation of System Hardening is required.

Our solution: automated System Hardening for public authorities

Manual System Hardening is time-consuming and error-prone – especially in complex, federal IT landscapes. An automated solution that improves security and reduces administrative effort is therefore recommended.

With Enforce Administrator, we offer a specially developed hardening tool “Made in Germany” that enables automated and continuous System Hardening based on globally established standards.

How does Enforce Administrator meet official requirements?

The requirements for a secure IT infrastructure in public authorities are constantly increasing. This overview shows how Enforce Administrator helps you to meet legal and regulatory requirements.

Regulatory requirements

🛑 Without a secure configuration or System Hardening, it is impossible to fully guarantee the protection of sensitive data. An increasing number of regulations mention “hardening” as a “must have”.

✅ The Enforce Administrator ensures continuous, automated hardening of your IT systems.

Meeting security standards

🛑 Individual security configurations are prone to errors, and current compliance requirements often cannot be met at all.

✅ Enforce Administrator hardens your systems according to established and recognized standards – for example, according to the recommendations of BSI, CIS, DISA, ACSC and Microsoft. The benchmarks can also be easily used in combination.

Monitoring security settings

🛑 Regular measures that monitor the actual implementation of the secure configuration are eminently important

✅ Enforce Administrator continuously monitors your systems and provides centralized reporting. Deviations from the target configuration are detected and, at best, automatically corrected.

Documentation for audits

🛑 Are the systems properly hardened, for example in accordance with CIS specifications or other established recommendations? Public authorities must regularly provide comprehensive evidence of their IT security measures.

✅ Enforce administrator creates reports and audit documentation at the touch of a button. These can even be integrated into reporting systems via technical interfaces.

Simple implementation

🛑 Implementing System Hardening via Windows Group Policies (GPOs) is time-consuming and complex. It no longer meets regulatory requirements, as the manual effort required for documentation, monitoring and process integration is too great.

✅ Enforce Administrator does not work on the basis of GPOs, but with integrated on-board tools and does not require any client software. And because it is a no-code tool, you don’t have to write a line of code yourself. This makes Enforce Administrator a simple and efficient solution for public authorities.
