We help leaders embed resilience into digital infrastructures and cyber-physical ecosystems
— navigating complexity at the intersection of technology, organization, and real-world threats.
For more than 15 years, COMCODE has guided companies, institutions, and public organizations through security-critical transformations. Founded by Markus Geier—renowned cyber crisis leader and architect of international defense teams—COMCODE combines strategy, governance, and crisis-tested expertise. Our approach is methodical, technology-agnostic, and leadership-focused, helping CISOs, executives, and operators anchor security where it counts. The mission is clear: to make cyber resilience a proactive business enabler—not just a reactive defense mechanism.
Our consulting focuses on two strategic areas:
We support enterprises in building and advancing modern cyber defense capabilities—from target operating models and make-or-buy decisions to crisis simulations. Our services are designed for CISOs, CIOs, and executive leadership who want to embed resilience strategically and operationally. We bring particular expertise in OSINT, SOC design, tool architectures, and incident preparedness.
We develop security and governance strategies for digitally connected buildings and urban ecosystems, working with operators, developers, municipalities, and construction groups. Our approach bridges technical architectures (OT, IoT, AI-readiness) with organizational resilience and operator responsibility—for example, through building SOC concepts, AI-ready buildings, or digital twins.
COMCODE is a boutique advisory firm specialized in strategy-driven cyber resilience. For more than 15 years, we have guided enterprises, critical infrastructure operators, and public institutions through security-critical transformations.
Our mission is clear: to make resilience a proactive business enabler—not just a reactive defense. We achieve this by combining deep technical expertise with leadership-level advisory, bridging the gap between business priorities, security architectures, and real-world threats.
With a team of seasoned experts—auditors, architects, CISSPs, vCISOs, ITIL practitioners, and process specialists—we deliver transformation advisory that is tailored, interdisciplinary, and operationally effective. Everything we do is designed to strengthen competitiveness, safeguard innovation, and embed resilience where it matters most.
At COMCODE, cyber resilience and digital transformation are not one-off projects. They are a team play—anchored in strategy, governance, and proven crisis experience.
