What Axitea does

Axitea S.p.A. is a privately-held, Milan-headquartered integrated security provider, founded in 1914 and operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of StarVision S.A. Self-described as Italy's leading company in the security industry, Axitea is structured as a single 'Global Security Provider' delivering physical security and cybersecurity services to enterprise and public-sector clients.

The technology stack is anchored by a 24/7 Security Operation Center (SOC) that ingests and processes millions of physical and cyber events daily, supported by AI-powered video analytics, IoT process monitoring, drone surveillance, satellite fleet management, and integrated intrusion/access/fire systems. The product portfolio is organized into seven lines: Site Security, Cyber Security, Bio Security, Fleet Security, IoT Security, Drone Security, and AI Video Security, with Cyber Security further broken down into SOC-as-a-Service (Managed SIEM, EDR, email security, VPN), Cyber Security Solutions (vulnerability analysis, penetration testing, data center protection, identity access governance), and Consulting (Privacy/GDPR, DPO-as-a-Service, CISO-as-a-Service, risk analysis, security governance, business continuity).

The commercial model blends recurring managed security services, professional consulting engagements, physical security hardware design/installation/maintenance contracts, and subscription/managed cyber services. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; customer acquisition is driven by direct enterprise field sales through a consultative entry point ('Richiedi un'analisi gratuita'). Distribution is single-country with an operating footprint concentrated in Lombardy, and credentials include ISO 27001 implementation capability for enterprise clients.
