An organization preparing for BSI‑Grundschutz alignment faced a familiar challenge: hundreds of systems had evolved over many years, including legacy devices running older operating systems. Inconsistent configurations, varying hardening levels, patch gaps and limited visibility made it difficult for their IT team to ensure compliance.
Manual remediation would have required weeks of effort, creating delays and operational strain.
The organization deployed XOAP to centralize all systems—including legacy servers and devices—into a single control plane. This allowed them to reduce configuration drift, minimize operational risk and manual workload, achieve technical compliance across all environments fast and accelerate audit readiness.
While formal certification still requires independent audit and organizational governance, the automated technical alignment provided a strong foundation for long-term BSI‑Grundschutz compliance.
XOAP centralized IT systems, enabling rapid BSI‑Grundschutz alignment for a critical-sector organization.
How XOAP ensured security compliance
BSI‑Grundschutz is a cybersecurity methodology from the German Federal Office for Information Security (Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik). It provides structured controls and best practices to protect IT systems, reduce risk and prepare for audits. XOAP helps organizations apply these controls at scale, across complex environments.
XOAP centralized and standardized systems, enabling fast alignment with BSI‑Grundschutz standards. Vulnerable or outdated software was detected and remediated while compliance was enforced across legacy, virtual and cloud systems.
Audit-ready reports are available at any time, manual work is minimized and the security posture is significantly improved.
Detect: XOAP’s Configuration Management module scans all systems and generates reports on vulnerable or outdated software, gaps in configurations and security baselines.
Remediate: The Application Management module installs updates, removes outdated software and enforces technical controls across legacy, virtual and cloud systems, reducing manual work and downtime.
Report: Continuous monitoring ensures compliance is maintained, with instant, centralized reports available for audits and clear visibility into the security posture.
Thanks to XOAP, compliance is now fast, automatic and fully auditable across all systems.
Key benefits for BSI‑Grundschutz alignment
Deliver compliance quickly while reducing effort and risk.
Fast compliance cycles
Reduce the time to align hundreds of systems from weeks to days.
Low operational effort
Minimize manual work and free IT teams to focus on strategic tasks.
Strong security posture
Systems stay up-to-date and audit-ready, reducing risk and demonstrating compliance confidently.
Automated security baselines
XOAP automates the application of security baselines—CIS, STIG, BSI and others—across heterogeneous systems. Controls are enforced consistently, reducing alignment time and minimizing manual effort.
Automated remediation at scale
XOAP’s Application Management module automatically installs updates, removes unsupported software and enforces hardening measures, resulting in less downtime and manual intervention.
Unified control plane for all endpoints
Legacy servers, virtual machines and cloud workloads are centralized into a single management framework. This eliminates fragmented tooling, reduces configuration drift and provides full infrastructure visibility.
Audit-ready reporting
Centralized, real-time reporting provides transparent compliance status at any time. IT teams can generate structured reports instantly, accelerating audit preparation and increasing confidence during external assessments.
Continuous vulnerability detection
XOAP’s Configuration Management module continuously scanns all systems for outdated software, missing patches and deviations from defined security baselines, enabling fast reactions to security gaps.
Reduced operational workload
By automating detection, remediation and reporting processes, XOAP minimizes manual remediation effort and frees internal IT resources for strategic initiatives instead of reactive compliance tasks.
