White Paper DSGVO Fit-Gap Analysis


The EU-wide General Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO) will become binding on the 25.05.2018 together with the new Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), which has already entered into force on 30.06.2017. So it's about time to tackle the topic. If you want to achieve a lot in a short time, our Fit-Gap analysis with roadmap can help.

What is the Fit-Gap Analysis?
They are currently confronted with very different names: readiness assessment, gap analysis or data protection audit. The focus is always on an inventory of operational processes in order to bring legal or other requirements into line with the implementation status in the company. At first it does not matter whether you have this inventory taken internally (eg by a compliance department or an internal auditor) or commissioned by an external party (eg consulting firms or external auditors).

The Fit-Gap analysis serves to identify the gap between legal requirements and the status quo in your company. The white paper is about the following questions:

  • Does the GDPR affect our company?
  • What should our company consider until May 2018?
  • How can one prepare in concrete terms?

For a quick overview there is an additional one checklist with questions and topics from the areas Organization, processes and systems which should be evaluated.
