What asvin.io does

asvin GmbH (asvin.io) is a Stuttgart-based, privately held German cybersecurity company that builds an AI-first platform for cyber-risk management across operational technology (OT), industrial IoT, and connected-device environments. Its portfolio centers on two proprietary products — Risk by Context™, a risk-prioritization platform that maps OT cyber risks and their interdependencies, and Device Security Booster™, a device update and patch-management product designed to satisfy security-by-design obligations on connected endpoints. Around these, asvin packages verticalized solutions for critical infrastructure, automotive, factory automation, supply chain, and AI-era threats, serving enterprise customers in energy (GP Joule), industrial IoT/smart metering (Zenner), industrial manufacturing (Nexus), testing/inspection/certification (DEKRA), and secure file transfer (FTAPI).

The technology stack is AI-centric: Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) — an integrated module of Risk by Context™ — ingests fragmented external threat data, IOCs, MITRE ATT&CK mappings, vulnerability data and geopolitical context to produce role-specific intelligence reports and accelerate reporting/triage via AI agents. The company explicitly positions an "Assume Breach" / agentic-AI defensive paradigm, with capabilities spanning anomaly detection across IT/OT/ICS, predictive risk prioritization, multimodal monitoring of supply-chain partners, and counter-AI defenses. A flagship co-development with DXC Luxoft combines TARA-based in-vehicle intrusion detection (IDPS) with asvin's AI backend, producing reported PoC outcomes of up to 70% cybersecurity noise reduction and up to 60% faster threat prioritization, aligned to UNECE R155/R156 and ISO/SAE 21434. The platform is offered alongside asvin Labs, an in-house research arm that publishes original work on inverter vulnerabilities (with OTH Regensburg) and AI-agent jailbreaks/prompt injection.

asvin operates a sales-led, direct enterprise GTM: pricing is quote-based across Risk by Context™, Device Security Booster™ and Professional Services (no public price list), with lead capture supplemented by gated whitepapers (notably a CTI whitepaper), a bilingual SEO/Google-Ads presence, LinkedIn campaigns, and heavy CEO-led earned media (Tagesthemen, FAZ, SZ, ZDF, DW). The company holds ISO 27001/14001/9001 certifications and the European Digital SME Alliance "Cybersecurity Made in Europe" label, and is a member of VDMA and Allianz für Cybersicherheit — positioning it as a regulatory-aligned DACH/EU provider for NIS2, the Cyber Resilience Act, and automotive cybersecurity mandates.

Product overview

asvin.io offers an AI-first cybersecurity platform built around two core proprietary products — Risk by Context™ (the central risk-prioritization and decision-making platform for OT/ICS cyber risk) and Device Security Booster™ (device update and patch management for connected devices). Around these, asvin packages a suite of domain-specific solutions including Cyber Threat Intelligence, Cyber Risk Prioritization, Supply Chain Cyber Security, Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity, Automotive Cybersecurity, Factory Automation, and AI Cybersecurity. Cyber Threat Intelligence is delivered as an integrated capability of the Risk by Context™ platform, while Professional Services supports customer implementation. The platform is complemented by asvin Labs, an in-house cybersecurity research arm that has produced investigations including inverter vulnerabilities (with OTH Regensburg) and AI jailbreak/prompt-injection research. Together, these offerings form a layered "AI Cyber Risk Management" portfolio for industrial, critical-infrastructure, and connected-device environments.
