aDvens, one of the leading independent cybersecurity companies in Europe, has been selected by the NATO Communications and Information Agency (NCIA) as an industry partner for the Cyber Security Dynamic Marketplace (CSDM) Lot 1 in Germany. The new framework is intended to provide NATO with faster and more flexible access to qualified cybersecurity providers. As a member of the framework, aDvens Germany will be able to apply for corresponding cybersecurity contracts from NCIA in the future.
With the Cyber Security Dynamic Marketplace, NCIA is creating a new procurement model for cybersecurity services. More than 90 companies from over 22 NATO countries have been selected for the first phase of the framework.
CSDM Lot 1 runs for five years and has a total funding framework of up to 500 million euros. The marketplace is intended to enable NCIA to respond more quickly to new requirements and operational priorities.
CSDM Lot 1 comprises a total of eight central cybersecurity areas: Identity, Credential and Access Management, Endpoint Protection and Platforms, Network and Perimeter Security, Cloud Security, Threat Detection and Analytics Platforms, Vulnerability and Exposure Management, Digital Forensics and Evidence Platforms, and Professional Services.
“The inclusion among the industry partners for the Cyber Security Dynamic Marketplace is an important recognition of our cybersecurity expertise for aDvens Germany and proves our ability to work even in particularly demanding and security-critical environments,” says Andreas Süß, CEO DACH (aDvens GmbH, Germany). “Cybersecurity is now a central component of the resilience and ability of organizations to act. As an independent European cybersecurity provider, we want to contribute our experience and technical know-how to the CSDM in the future and thus contribute to strengthening NATO’s cyber resilience.”
