Sightadel

About us

Built from consulting and audit practice.
Made so the standard serves its purpose.

Most companies do not fail for lack of will, but because security, compliance and quality live in separate folders, spreadsheets and heads. Sightadel brings it all into one place – and guides you step by step to the audit.

Who we are

A product brand of neonotu GmbH.

Sightadel grew out of many years of consulting and certification practice. We saw management systems get lost in template manuals and evidence being gathered in a rush just before the audit. The result is a platform that guides you to the standard instead of merely storing files.

Sightadel is run by neonotu GmbH in Munich, a cybersecurity company. The managing director is Armin Haller. Development, operations and support are based in Germany.

Sightadel is not a side product. It grew out of daily work with management systems. The industry templates, guiding questions and controls come from many years of consulting and certification experience. What auditors ask for again and again has gone into the platform.

neonotu GmbH, the provider of Sightadel, is certified to ISO 9001 and ISO 27001. It processes data in line with the GDPR and meets the DORA requirements for ICT third-party service providers. More on our Security page.

Why Sightadel exists

Many companies shy away from the effort. With good reason.

In many companies, ISO 9001, ISO 27001 or NIS2 are seen as a major project that ties up months and still ends up in a folder. So it gets postponed – until a customer asks for a certificate, a tender requires one or a law makes it mandatory.

That experience is justified. Traditional projects start with a template manual nobody in the company recognises. Then come workshops, spreadsheets and versions sent by e-mail. Evidence is gathered just before the audit. After that the system falls asleep until the next surveillance audit comes round.

Yet the core of these standards is not complicated. They require a company to know what it wants to protect or assure, which risks exist, who is responsible for what and how it improves. The problem is rarely the content but the organisation around it: who does what by when, where the current evidence is, what has changed since the last audit.

This is where Sightadel comes in. Not with even more templates, but with a guided path: control by control, with guiding questions, industry templates and evidence in the right place. A project without end becomes a series of manageable steps.

The guided path

From the first control to the audit.

You do not need to know the standard by heart to get started. Sightadel shows you what comes next.

  1. AssessmentYou answer the requirements control by control. Guiding questions explain what matters.
  2. EvidenceDocuments, records and proof are linked to the controls they support – with version and expiry date.
  3. Action plansWhatever is missing becomes a task with an owner and a deadline.
  4. Consultants when neededFor important questions, real consultants help – right at the control.
  5. AuditAn independent auditor reviews everything in the system and can never delete anything. No folders sent by e-mail.

What we stand for

Six principles you can hold us to.

Not marketing promises, but the rules by which we build and run the platform.

01

Guidance, not a pile of templates

Sightadel guides you through the standard control by control. Industry templates and drafting help take care of routine work, guiding questions show what matters. Real consultants answer the tricky cases.

02

Honest about the effort

Not everything can be automated, and not everything should be. How your company assesses risks and sets objectives has to come from you. That is exactly the purpose of the standard – and it is what the auditor checks.

03

Independent

We do not certify. The audit is carried out by an external auditor from our independent partner network or a body of your choice. No commission is paid for audits, neither to us nor to our partners.

04

European regulations as modules in their own right

For us, NIS2, DORA, GDPR and BSI C5 are not footnotes to a US standard but separate modules with their own deadlines and evidence.

05

Data in Germany

Sightadel is developed in Germany and hosted in Germany. No detour via data centres elsewhere.

06

We use it ourselves

neonotu GmbH runs its own management system in Sightadel. What we recommend to you, we use every day ourselves.

Who we build for

For companies that are serious about it but do not want a major project.

Sightadel is aimed at companies that need to build a management system or meet a legal obligation without having a dedicated department for it.

Often it is one person who looks after the topic alongside their actual job: the head of IT, the quality manager, the assistant to the management. That person does not need a folder full of samples, but a clear sequence, understandable questions and someone to ask when things get tricky.

Sightadel is also used by companies that are already certified and finally want to get their system out of spreadsheets and folders – or that are adding a second framework and want to reuse their existing evidence.

What we deliberately do not do

Limits we set ourselves.

We could offer some of these things. We do not, because they would undermine the purpose of the standard or your independence.

We do not certify

Sightadel does not issue certificates. Whoever advises must not audit. The audit is carried out by an independent, accredited body.

We take no commission for audits

Neither from auditors nor from certification bodies. You choose freely, and nobody earns from your choice.

We do not fill in everything for you

Industry templates and drafting help save time. But your risks, objectives and responsibilities have to come from you. A pre-filled system does not pass an audit and does not protect your company.

We do not promise legal certainty

We know standards and audit practice. We do not replace a legal review of your individual case.
