Get to know Heimdall

A compact security practice with a long perimeter - named for the watchman, built for operators who already know what is at stake.

Our mission

Enhance and secure the digital landscapes of Europe.

Heimdall Security Team exists to put serious security work next to the people who run serious infrastructure. The practice sits with Jan Gebser: regional datacenters, aerospace programmes, defence agencies, and the special-task assignments that appear when a landscape must be strengthened without a press release.

Protection should take effect immediately and remain unified in its approach. Complexity is not a virtue. Clarity, discretion, and follow-through are.

Our values

What we stand for

  1. Hardening from the foundation

    Security that begins in architecture, operations, and people - not in a dashboard overlay.

  2. European digital sovereignty

    Landscapes hosted, understood, and defended in Europe, for Europe.

  3. Integrity before visibility

    The work is the credential. Public noise is optional.

  4. Mission-grade discretion

    Some assignments are briefed. Others are simply completed.

  5. Defence of critical landscapes

    Datacenters, aerospace programmes, and agency environments that cannot fail quietly.

  6. Accountability without theatre

    Clear ownership, written findings, and no security folklore.

  7. Listen first, diagnose later

    The first hour is for the operator, not the slide deck.

  8. Long-horizon partnerships

    Present worldwide. Patient enough to stay when the incident is over.

Founder

Jan Gebser

Founder, Heimdall Security Team · Managing Director, NETCORE MEDIA

Jan Gebser is a Hamburg-based IT consultant working across commercial, institutional, and agency environments. The brief is deliberately wide: regional datacenter operations, aerospace programmes, defence-adjacent agencies, and potential special-task work to enhance and secure Europe’s digital landscapes.

He is present worldwide - not as a touring brand, but as a practitioner who still writes, deploys, and stands in the room. The same discipline applied to client landscapes is the one applied here: quiet, complete, and not performed for the brochure.

Public stages remain part of the craft. The latest competition was the World’s Largest Hackathon on Devpost. The next appointment is ContainerDays Hamburg, 2–4 September 2026.

Our story

It started as a watchman, not a product line

  1. The name

    Heimdall is the sentinel of the Bifröst - the one who sees first. The Security Team takes that role literally: observe the landscape, name the weak span, hold the gate.

  2. The practice

    The work grew from holding the gate on our own platforms to holding it for others. Loki remains a public lab. The rest of the practice stays off the brochure.

  3. The brief expands

    The same discipline moved into regional datacenters, aerospace programmes, and defence agencies. Special-task work followed where Europe’s digital landscapes needed more than a scanner report.

  4. Present tense

    Heimdall Security Team is the public face of that practice. Compact on purpose. Available when the perimeter is real.

Why Heimdall

Unlock confidence without the catalogue

One practitioner, end to end

Architecture, operations, code, and conversation sit with the same person. No account team between the finding and the fix.

Landscapes, not checklists

Datacenters, flight-adjacent systems, agency networks - each has a different grain. The work follows the grain.

Discretion as a default

Client names stay off this page. Outcomes stay with the operator. Public proof lives in the lab and on the conference floor.

Continuity

The same people, the same standard. No catalogue of products between the finding and the fix.

Latest competition
