IT security
Protect business processes reliably
Expired certificates. Printers without a current password. Documents in the output tray that shouldn't be there. Corporate IT security often fails because of many small things that no one is keeping track of any more. Genius Bytes protects your digital identities, your print environment and your data processes end-to-end, from encryption to compliance verification.
The challenge
Digital identities: The blind spot in IT security
Data theft and sabotage affect almost every business today. One area is regularly overlooked in the process: document processing and the printer fleet.
56 %
the companies suffered a data loss due to an incident in the cdf print infrastructure.
937.000 €
averages for a security incident in multi-vendor printer fleets.
47 %
Most rely on Windows logins and passwords, with only 34 % using ID cards: authentication remains a patchwork system.
72 %
the companies had at least one outage in 2025 due to an expired certificate

NIS2 makes IT security a matter for management
Since 6 December 2025, the NIS2 Implementation Act has been in force in Germany. Around 29,500 companies have been under the supervision of the BSI since then. Anyone who violates the new obligations risks fines of up to 10 million euros or 2 per cent of annual turnover. The first audit proof was due by 30 June 2026, and this deadline has already passed.
