The Risk Assessment Security Policy serves as a foundational document for organizations operating in Germany to establish and maintain a systematic approach to security risk management. This policy is essential for compliance with German federal regulations, including the IT Security Act and BSI guidelines, as well as EU-wide requirements such as GDPR. Organizations should implement this policy to establish a structured approach to identifying, assessing, and mitigating security risks across their operations. The policy is particularly crucial for organizations handling sensitive data, operating critical infrastructure, or subject to specific industry regulations. It includes detailed procedures for risk assessment, documentation requirements, and response protocols, while ensuring alignment with German legal requirements for worker participation and data protection.
