Anovum B.V.

Anovum is a Dutch cybersecurity firm headquartered in The Hague, delivering comprehensive security services to organisations seeking to strengthen their digital resilience.

Founded by Mischa Rick van Geelen, the company operates on a philosophy of independence, transparency, and deep technical expertise providing clients with clear, actionable insights rather than black-box assessments.

The company offers a full spectrum of cybersecurity services across four core pillars. Assessment & Advisory includes penetration testing for web applications, infrastructure, APIs, mobile applications, and OT environments, alongside CISO-as-a-Service and TISO-as-a-Service offerings for organisations requiring strategic security leadership. Detection & Response provides 24/7 incident response capabilities, threat intelligence, and security operations support. Digital Forensics delivers forensic readiness planning and in-depth digital forensic investigations.

Anovum has built its reputation on high-profile engagements and proven expertise. The people behind Anovum investigated major ransomware incidents including the attacks on Hof van Twente and ROC Mondriaan, both publicly documented cases that demonstrated its incident response capabilities. The people behind Anovum also conducted the penetration test on the CoronaMelder app, with results submitted directly to Dutch Parliament a testament to the trust placed in the company for critical national infrastructure. Anovum maintains deep roots in the ethical hacking community and contributes actively to the development of the MIAUW methodology for penetration testing with audit value. The company joined Cyberveilig Nederland in December 2024, the leading industry association for Dutch cybersecurity firms, reinforcing its commitment to sector-wide collaboration and quality standards.

Anovum's team responds to security incidents within two hours and operates around the clock, ensuring clients have expert support whenever threats emerge.
