A standard or procedure is no guarantee that a technical choice is sensible. A process can be documented and auditable extremely well while the selected cloud provider, retention period or access structure is still unsuitable.
We therefore approach standards primarily as a language for asking questions systematically: what are we trying to protect, who is responsible, how do we perform a step consistently and how do we verify that recovery really works?
ASK-Solutions is not a certification body. This page is about understanding and practical application, not issuing an ISO certificate.
The GDPR is legislation governing the processing of personal data. ISO standards are voluntary or contractually required standards for areas such as quality or information-security management. They can overlap, but an ISO certificate does not automatically make processing GDPR-compliant and vice versa.
Because some actions need to be reproducible and auditable. Examples include erasing donated storage media, making and testing backups or granting administrator rights. A fixed procedure reduces the chance that a crucial step is forgotten.
Yes. If a procedure says, for example, that documents must always be uploaded to one cloud platform, everyone can follow the procedure perfectly while the chosen supplier or access structure does not suit the data. Audit not only whether steps were followed, but also discuss why those steps are sensible.
No. We can explain, investigate processes, discuss risks and work through documentation or technical choices together. Formal certification belongs with an authorised certification body.
Practical work on data, access and procedures can connect to Digital.
