Dataeye Consulting

What Dataeye Consulting does

Dataeye Consulting SRL is a Romanian privately held cybersecurity and IT security consultancy founded in 2010 and headquartered in Bucharest, operating across the European Union with a concentrated focus on the Romanian regulatory environment. The firm delivers three core professional services — Vulnerability Assessment, Penetration Testing, and IT Security Audit — using industry-standard scanning tools (Qualys, Rapid7, Nessus) within a quotation-based, project-scoping engagement model. Its competitive position rests on three formal regulatory credentials: ASF certification (22/24.03.2020) for financial-sector IT audits, ADR authorization as an IT Auditor (September 2024), and RENASC registration as a General Cyber Security Auditor (IDASC QC-18310A7), the last of which entitles it to perform legally mandated cybersecurity audits for Essential Service Operators under NIS2/OUG 155/2024.

Beyond core audit services, Dataeye operates two product extensions: GDPR4SMB, an online GDPR compliance management application featuring a per-user encryption architecture in which individual user data is encrypted with its own key and the vendor has no access to client-entered information; and the SafeWork training family (SafeWork GDPR, SafeWork Securitate Informatică, SafeWork Personalizat) delivered via the GDPR4SMB Train platform, which generates subscription-style recurring revenue from employee compliance training. The business employs roughly 11 people, distributes through direct field sales and website-led quotation requests, and maintains a primarily enterprise customer base in regulated verticals (financial institutions, Essential Service Operators) supplemented by an emerging SMB training segment. Technology partnerships with EC-Council, Dell EMC, RSA, VMware, Fortinet, and idcontrol are disclosed as minor integrations; ownership remains private with no external institutional investment or M&A activity on record.
