Security architecture and advisory for European organisations: we work out what needs to be done, define scope and priorities, and bring in specialised partners for the technical work, staying on your side throughout. Those partners come from our European network of security firms and research centres and cover penetration testing, security monitoring and incident response, forensic analysis and tooling. We define their work in writing and coordinate it, from the scope to the reading of the results. On the research side, Yameveo leads WP5 in VANTAGE, the EU Digital Europe cybersecurity project (€7.8M, 13 partners, 8 countries).
What does a vulnerability assessment from Yameveo include?
The assessment itself is our work. We review your architecture, configuration, access and what is exposed to the internet, correlate what we find with known CVEs, and rank the weaknesses that actually matter in your environment. You get back a prioritised report with concrete remediation steps, not a raw scanner dump. When the assessment calls for a penetration test, a specialised partner carries it out under a written scope that we define and manage: targets, dates, rules of engagement and your authorisation. You receive the partner’s full report together with our prioritised reading of it and the remediation plan.
What does NIS2 require from mid-size European companies?
NIS2 extends the EU’s cybersecurity obligations to a much wider set of “essential” and “important” entities. It requires documented risk management, incident reporting, and management accountability. Essential entities can face administrative fines of up to €10 million or 2% of total worldwide annual turnover (whichever is higher); important entities up to €7 million or 1.4%. Under Article 20 of NIS2 (Directive (EU) 2022/2555), management bodies can be held personally liable. If you fall under scope, Yameveo helps put those obligations into practice: we assess your current security posture, design the risk-management process and the technical controls the directive expects, including the incident-reporting workflow, and define the evidence your auditor will want to see. The technical tests inside that process are carried out by a specialised partner, under a scope we define and manage. We focus on the engineering side of compliance, not on paperwork alone.
How is AI changing vulnerability assessment?
AI is pushing vulnerability assessment from a periodic exercise towards a continuous one, with agents that track new exploits, re-test after changes and take routine Level 1 SOC work off analysts. Attackers use the same techniques. For you, the practical questions are which of these tools are mature enough to rely on, what they should be allowed to touch, and how their output gets checked. We help you answer those questions and choose partners and tools on that basis. On the research side, Yameveo leads WP5 in VANTAGE, where we build AI pipelines that run locally, so project data never leaves the EU. You can read more in the VANTAGE posts on our blog.
How do we work with your existing SOC or security team?
We work alongside your existing SOC or security team, not in place of it, and fit into the tools and workflows you already run. Our part is architecture and coordination: with your team we work out where the gaps are and what outside help is needed, bring in the right partner (offensive testing your team can’t easily run against itself, monitoring and response, forensics after an incident), and make sure validated findings and indicators of compromise reach your existing pipelines. Engagements range from a one-off assessment to an ongoing advisory relationship.
Frequently asked questions
Do you work with companies outside Bulgaria?
Yes. Yameveo EOOD is based in Burgas, Bulgaria, and works with organisations across Europe, together with specialised partners from our European network.
Do you resell tools or are you independent?
We are independent. We recommend tooling and partners for the technical work based on what your environment needs, and where it helps, we can supply the products through our network.
What size of company do you typically work with?
We work mainly with mid-size European companies and public-sector security teams (SOCs and CSIRTs) that need security planned and coordinated properly without building a large in-house team.
How does your VANTAGE work benefit clients?
VANTAGE is an EU research project, not a service we sell. Yameveo leads WP5, where we build AI pipelines that run locally, so project data never leaves the EU. For clients, it means we follow closely where AI-driven security is heading in Europe, and that shapes how we scope assessments and which tools we recommend.
