Audit management: efficient processes for sustainable compliance

Your security as a strategic success factor

Successful audit management is essential in order to reliably comply with the various legal requirements, norms and standards (ISO 27001, BSI IT-Grundschutz, EU GDPR and many more). Regular internal and external audits make it possible to identify, document and close quality and security gaps at an early stage. As a result, companies not only strengthen the trust of their customers and business partners, but also optimize their internal processes and strengthen their reputation.

Why integrated audit management is indispensable

  • Legal certainty & risk minimization: Complete documentation of audit results allows you to proactively prevent compliance violations and prove adherence to relevant regulations at all times.
  • Continuous process improvement: audits reveal weaknesses and potential for improvement. Structured audit management enables quick reactions and sustainable process optimization.
  • Efficiency & cost savings: A single, integrated software platform (e.g. QSEC) prevents media disruptions and duplication of work – this saves time and reduces costs in the long term.

The comprehensive audit management software

With QSEC, you use a holistic solution for all phases of your audit management process – from planning to implementation and evaluation. The integrated management system maps all the requirements of various standards (e.g. ISO 27001, BSI IT baseline protection, data protection in accordance with the EU GDPR) in one system.

  1. Central data management: All relevant information and documents are available at all times and are archived in an audit-proof manner. This significantly simplifies collaboration between teams and auditors.
  2. Customizable audit and evaluation criteria: Define company or industry-specific criteria for internal as well as external audits and flexibly adapt test procedures to new requirements.
  3. Automated action management: Identified weaknesses and opportunities for improvement are recorded, prioritized and tracked directly in QSEC. This ensures that no task is overlooked and that implementation is consistently monitored.
  4. Transparent reports & dashboards: The integrated reporting functions provide a clear overview of all audit results. Precise management reports support decision-making and ensure the support of management.
  5. Networking with other management systems: QSEC acts as a central cockpit for your quality, risk, compliance and security management and creates an efficient, company-wide management ecosystem.
