About Us

Cybersecurity and software development driven by passion.

Two founders, a tight-knit team, a clear philosophy: security and software go hand in hand. We don’t build off-the-shelf products, and we don’t beat around the bush.

Our Approach

We founded ITanic because we understand both sides.

Philipp has a background in security and law. Matthias has a background in networking and software. We realized that most providers are good at one or the other. We wanted to be good at both—and think about them together.

That’s how ITanic came to be. Not as an agency, not as a service provider that simply fulfills orders. But as a team that thinks proactively, communicates clearly, and takes responsibility for what it builds and protects.

What that means: No outsourcing. No subcontractors. Work directly with us.

Known for

How car thieves break into vehicles without a key. Live on ORF 2.

Matthias Pointinger demonstrated live on the Steiermark Mobil show: Using a simple device, the radio signal from a car key can be intercepted, copied, and used to unlock the vehicle—all without any physical tampering. No forced entry, no alarm, no trace. That is exactly what ITanic does: identify security vulnerabilities before attackers do.

What we use

Depth, not width.

We specialize in areas where superficial knowledge can be dangerous. Every area of expertise within the team is overseen by someone who truly masters it.

Penetration Testing & Red Teaming

Manual tests that go beyond automated scanners. Black-box, gray-box, physical security, and social engineering.

Incident Response & Forensics

Stop attacks, contain damage, and thoroughly investigate the causes. Includes documentation admissible in court.

Network & Cloud Security

Securing networks, protecting cloud environments, and implementing access policies. Solutions that stand up to the rigors of real-world operations.

Full-Stack Development

Web apps, mobile apps, APIs, and internal tools. From architecture to deployment, all under one roof.

DevOps & Cloud Infrastructure

Build, automate, and monitor infrastructure. Systems that run smoothly and respond immediately when problems arise.

NIS2 & Compliance

Both managing directors are certified NIS 2 consultants. From gap analysis to audit preparation—all under one roof.

How We Work

What you can expect from working with us.

No empty promises. Four specific ways we do things differently.

Cybersecurity and software from a single source

We develop software and secure systems. Both are equally important, and both are handled under one roof. For us, security is an integral part of the architecture, not an afterthought.

Directly with the team

No project managers acting as translators. You’ll work directly with the people building your solution. We’re always in charge—we never pass the work on to others.

100% EU infrastructure

All systems are located within the EU. No U.S. cloud providers, no legal gray areas. Fully GDPR-compliant, with no compromises.

Honest assessment

We recommend what makes sense, not what brings in the biggest contract. What matters after the project is whether it works.
