Cybersecurity guidance for high-stakes organisations
Intelligent Consulting BV helps organisations turn cybersecurity, compliance, and resilience into clear business decisions.
We translate technical risks into practical action. Our work is grounded in deep security architecture experience, executive-level communication, and a clear understanding of EU and NATO expectations.
Who we are
About Us
Intelligent Consulting BV is a Brussels-based cybersecurity advisory firm serving organisations that need credible, senior-level guidance on cyber risk, governance, regulations and resilience.
Who we are
We collaborate with leaders who need more than technical reports. Our clients want judgment, context, and clear priorities that connect security to business objectives, compliance obligations, and operational continuity.
We are known for an architecture-first mindset and the ability to speak both technical and boardroom language.
Our values
- Ethical: We act with integrity and place client trust at the centre of every engagement.
- Transparent: We provide clear advice, clear scope, and clear expectations.
- Diverse: We value different perspectives and an inclusive security culture.
Our perspective
We believe cybersecurity should enable confidence, not just control. That means practical governance, strong identity and key management, resilient architecture, and a realistic view of risk in regulated and high-consequence environments. It also means building solutions that are aligned with sovereignty, privacy, and long-term operational sustainability.
Advisory areas
Services
We provide advisory services to help organisations strengthen cybersecurity, compliance, and resilience. Our work is grounded in deep security architecture experience, executive-level communication, and a clear understanding of EU and NATO expectations.
Board Cyber Advisory
We help boards and senior leadership teams understand cyber risk in business terms. Typical outputs include governance frameworks, KPI dashboards, reporting structures, and board-ready risk narratives.
Regulatory Readiness
We support organisations preparing for or responding to CADA, AI Act, NIS2, DORA, GDPR, and related EU obligations. Our work includes gap analysis, remediation planning, control mapping, and leadership guidance.
OT/ICS and critical infrastructure
We advise organisations operating industrial, energy, transport, and other operational technology environments. The focus is on resilient architecture, secure change, governance, and risk reduction in high-availability environments.
Agentic AI Security
We help builders and adopters secure AI systems that can plan, call tools, access memory, and act. Our guidance covers identity, PKI, key management, token hygiene, revocation, auditability, and supplier governance.
Sovereign and open-source security architecture
We support clients seeking more control over their security stack, data residency, and supplier dependency. This includes guidance on open-source, sovereign infrastructure, and vendor-agnostic design choices.
Trusted sectors
Clients

Sector Focus
Our experience and positioning make us especially relevant for organisations navigating regulatory hardening, sovereignty concerns, procurement complexity, and strategic resilience priorities. We are particularly well-suited to environments where trust, discretion, and long-term credibility matter.
