Pragmatic approach to protect your data

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are increasingly becoming the target of hackers. Only those who know the risks can protect themselves. The data security assessment procedure of TÜViT focuses on the measures which are particularly relevant to SMEs and which can be effectively implemented even with the limited use of resources.

 

Basics of the data security assessment

The data security assessment is an independent appraisal of the security and effectiveness of IT use. It is based on established best practices and standards of IT security and IT service management:

  • IT-Grundschutz (BSI Standard 100-2)
  • Information Security Management Systems (ISO/IEC 27001, ISO/IEC 27002)
  • IT Service Management (ISO/IEC 20000)
