Yarix

What Yarix does

Yarix is the dedicated cybersecurity brand of Italian technology conglomerate Var Group S.p.A., headquartered in Treviso (registered office) and Montebelluna, providing enterprise-grade cybersecurity services to large and multinational organizations across Europe, Latin America, and Asia-Pacific. The portfolio is organized in two pillars: (i) core cyber security services — a 24/7 Security Operations Center (SOC), Cyber Attack Response / Digital Forensics, Cyber Threat Intelligence (covering Clear, Dark, and Deep Web), Red Teaming & Offensive Security, Anti-Fraud Services, Industrial OT Cybersecurity, and the YCERT Computer Emergency Response Team — and (ii) advisory and compliance services — Cyber Security Advisory, plus dedicated offerings for NIS2, the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), IEC 62443, and the Radio Equipment Directive (RED).

The technical foundation is the proprietary AI-powered platform Egyda, which layers hyperautomation, orchestration & response, feed intelligence, and user anomaly detection on top of integrated SIEM and threat intelligence feeds to support SOC analysts across IT, cloud, and hybrid environments, with a claimed 40% reduction in response times. Underlying delivery is a Follow-the-Sun SOC operating model — SOC teams distributed across European, Middle Eastern, and Asia-Pacific time zones — supported by owned offices in Italy, Spain (four locations), Germany (Yarix GmbH), Austria, Mexico, India (Bangalore and Chennai), and Thailand. YCERT's institutional affiliations (FIRST member, Trusted Introducer accredited, ENISA listed, 2016 MoU with the Italian State Police) and a deep bench of certifications (SANS/GIAC, OFFSEC, INE, ISACA, EC-Council, plus hyperscaler security credentials) underpin the team's credibility.

The business model combines subscription-based managed services (SOC-as-a-Service, MDR), retained incident response, project-based advisory and compliance work, and Red Teaming-as-a-Service, sold through direct enterprise field sales and leveraging the Var Group distribution network. Pricing is quote-based and tied to infrastructure scope, complexity, and regulatory context, with no public pricing disclosed. Customer segments span large/multinational enterprises, EU NIS2 essential/important entities, industrial/OT operators, financial institutions and payment service providers, and IoT/connected product manufacturers, evidenced by named engagements with Latteria Montello and IFOM and operational throughput of 522,000+ security events handled in 2025.
