The Company
Greenbone is the world’s most trusted provider of open source vulnerability management. Our core competence is the development of algorithms and programs that detect vulnerabilities in our customers’ IT systems before an attacker can exploit them. Greenbone was founded in 2008 and has been converted into a stock company in 2023. We protect the digital assets of over 1,000 customers with over 50,000 installations wherever there is IT.
Our database contains over one hundred thousand security reports and a wealth of other information that contributes to an accurate risk assessment of IT systems. Customers benefit from automated security tests and daily updates in a subscription model. Quality, security and sustainability are particularly important to us. That is why we have been ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 certified since 2021 and ISO 14001 certified since 2024.

Leadership
Dr. Jan-Oliver Wagner, CEO and Co-Founder of Greenbone
I am the founder and CEO of the IT security company Greenbone AG.
I have come to know and appreciate transparency and openness as key factors for both successful science and successful software products.
Greenbone is also shaped by these guiding principles and I am excited to contribute to their further development every day. To make Greenbone a market leader through these principles is my motivation.
I am convinced that this path not only means sustainable economic success but also contributes to the development of our modern society, not least in terms of digital sovereignty.
Elmar Geese, CMO, Member of the Board
I have been part of the Greenbone management team since the beginning of 2020, where I am responsible for business development and marketing.
Greenbone is making a decisive contribution to making our world safer. This encourages me to develop us into an even stronger and more successful company. We offer the best vulnerability management, with thousands of users in 150 countries.
We have leading experts in our teams. More and more customers trust our products. We have the potential to develop into an international player. This task inspires me every day.
Ingo Conrads, CSO
I have been with Greenbone AG since the beginning of 2022, where as CSO I am responsible for building and maintaining customer relationships.
It is important to me to be an inspiring and effective leader for our sales and professional services team. This includes fostering a culture of continuous improvement and lots of teamwork.
Customer relationships are very important to me: I do everything I can to ensure that our customers are satisfied and have confidence in us. One strategic goal is therefore to improve the entire customer experience during the sales process.
Benjamin Höner, CPO
I joined the Greenbone management team in 2022 and am responsible for the product area. Our technology is accessible to everyone. I am convinced that the combination of open source and IT security is becoming increasingly important. Trust is an important value for me, especially in the sensitive area of IT security.
The widespread use of our solution and the strong community motivate me to keep improving our products. Their feedback and direct contact with customers are among the most important sources for our further developments. My many years of experience in the IT security environment also help me here.
Developing Greenbone further, strengthening the community and supporting customers every day with our products in the security process is an exciting challenge for me.
