Your path to secure and efficient compliance
As a CIO, data protection officeror risk manager, you face the daily challenge of meeting the increasing requirements for information security and compliance. The banking supervisory requirements for IT (BAIT) and the insurance supervisory requirements for IT (VAIT) are complex and require a structured approach.

- Permanent control and improvement through the PDCA cycle (Plan-Do-Check-Act)

- Protective measures at the click of a mouse: Derive recommendations for action directly from the risks and implement them.
