Wolnzach (D) and Freiburg (CH), April 22, 2024
Trufflepig Forensics GmbH was founded in 2020 in Bavaria by a team of ethical
hackers to protect companies in the field of IT security.
Today, Trufflepig Forensics announces the founding of its new subsidiary,
Trufflepig IT-Forensics Switzerland. With this strategic expansion,
the company is responding to the increasing demand for high-quality IT security solutions
in the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland).
Digitalization ensures that a functioning IT system is vital for
many companies. It is therefore essential to protect systems from hacker attacks.
Trufflepig Forensics has established itself as a reliable partner in this field for
companies of different sizes and industries.
The team of Trufflepig Forensics consists of highly specialized experts who
have already worked for the German Federal Intelligence Service or Israeli security authorities.
This in-depth knowledge enables the team to take a holistic approach to the complex topic of IT security
and offer pragmatic solutions to
significantly increase customer security.
To optimally meet the demand in the DACH region, Trufflepig Forensics has
taken a significant step and announced the founding of Trufflepig IT-Forensics Switzerland.
Aaron Hartel, commercial director for Germany,
will lead the expansion into Switzerland.
The new location chosen is the Canton of Fribourg – a young,
up-and-coming canton that is influenced by both German and French
culture. This choice of location underlines the importance that
Trufflepig Forensics attaches to its international outlook.
Jerry Krattiger, Director of the Fribourg Economic Development Agency, says:
“We are delighted that Trufflepig has chosen Fribourg as its location
and will continue to drive its international growth from here.
Freiburg offers a wide range of expertise in the field of IT security,
which is essential for every company today.”
One of these centers of expertise in Fribourg is ROSAS (Robust and Safe Systems Center)
at the School of Engineering and Architecture of Fribourg (HEIA-FR), which also supports companies in the
field of cyber security. ROSAS director Wolfgang Berns says:
“The establishment of Trufflepig IT-Forensics in the canton of Fribourg marks
a significant step, particularly in the field of cybersecurity.
This decision not only recognizes the technological expertise of the
ROSAS competence center. It also highlights the importance of our
region as a pioneer in the cybersecurity industry and reinforces our commitment
to protecting digital infrastructures at the highest level.”
Aaron Hartel, Commercial Director Trufflepig Forensics:
“It is important to us that the proven services and products
of Trufflepig Forensics maintain their high quality standards,
while the processing is adapted to the specific needs and requirements of the
Swiss market. This applies, for example, to the areas of
data protection and compliance.”
To date, Trufflepig Forensics has operated in German
and English; in the future, the company plans to offer its services in
French as well. This linguistic flexibility will enable
Trufflepig Forensics to effectively support a broader range of customers in the DACH region
.
