Vimopro

What Vimopro does

Vimopro GmbH is a privately held German IT security and information security consultancy headquartered in Villingen-Schwenningen, Baden-Württemberg. The firm operates as a Systemhaus serving mid-sized companies (Mittelstand) across Germany with a portfolio spanning IT security audits, vulnerability scanning, Information Security Management Systems (ISMS) consulting for ISO 27001 and TISAX/VDA-ISA certification, GDPR/DSGVO data protection officer services, managed IT and security services, and online employee awareness training delivered through a ZOHO Trainer Central-based portal (schulung.vimopro.de). Its three main product pillars are a structured security audit and vulnerability scanning service, an ISMS implementation practice reporting a 100% ISO 27001 audit pass rate across 1,500+ completed projects, and an operational managed-services stack covering firewall management, AI-driven endpoint protection (SentinelOne, Cylance), email filtering with DLP, continuous monitoring, and maintenance.

The underlying technology stack combines proprietary consulting frameworks (including an in-house phishing simulation platform and a CVE alert reporting service) with third-party infrastructure from Dell (Preferred Partner), MobileIron (MDM), TeamViewer (remote support), Microsoft 365, and SentinelOne. Pricing is quote-based on a time-and-materials model invoiced monthly with 10-day payment terms; professional services and managed services are the primary revenue streams, with growing recurring exposure from the online training portal.

Commercially, Vimopro pursues a direct, consultative, sales-led GTM with on-site delivery across Germany and a regional anchor in Baden-Württemberg, augmented by the BMWi go-digital subsidized consulting program, content marketing (German-language blog and webinars), and partnerships with industry associations including BvD e.V., Allianz für Cybersicherheit, and IHK Schwarzwald-Baar-Heuberg. The company is founder-controlled (Geschäftsführender Gesellschafter Alexander Jägers) with no disclosed institutional investment, parent entity, or M&A activity.
