Hasecon: OpenKAT Specialist & Cybersecurity Consultancy
Hasecon is the Netherlands’ leading OpenKAT specialist. We review, test and merge code changes in the official OpenKAT repository and serve as board member of Stichting IP-Zorg. That hands-on involvement in the source code sets us apart.

Why Hasecon?
Multiple companies offer OpenKAT services. What makes Hasecon unique is our active involvement in the development and maintenance of the official nl-kat-coordination repository on GitHub. We review, test and merge code changes into the main branch. That direct involvement in the codebase means we know the platform inside out.
Our concrete contributions to OpenKAT include:
- Local CVE API integration — vulnerability data stays local, nothing leaks externally
- Katalogus settings for containerized boefjes — improved configuration for Docker deployments
- Cross-platform backup & restore scripts — reliable backups across environments
