SafeD - Your Data Protection Software

SafeD data protection software enables secure data processing

Secure data processing is expected and, in the EU, required by law, for organizations of all sizes. This can be challenging, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). With our SafeD data protection software, SMEs can easily check for compliance and implement the EU’s GDPR guidelines.

The European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has been in effect since May 25, 2018. For companies with limited resources, catching up with the latest requirements for data collection can seem like a hardship. That’s where our SafeD data protection software can help.
Our specially designed software detects possible gaps in companies’ data processing security by first assessing the current status of their data protection processes with an information-gathering questionnaire. SafeD detects, for example:
  • Whether permission for personal data processing has been granted,
  • To what extent a right of withdrawal is guaranteed, if so,
  • Which department or individual is tasked with ensuring secure data processing. If there is no internal IT department or IT specialist, an external service provider must be engaged to oversee data processing security.

SafeD GDPR software is simple and effective

First of all, our SafeD software identifies areas that are not yet compliant with data protection regulations. The next step is to address those gaps, starting with an action plan that prioritizes areas of concern.
If a quality management system is already in place, data protection activities can be linked to it. In the absence of a robust quality management program, it is advisable to assign someone in the company or an external service provider to take on these duties. Whenever there is a change within the organization, data protection has to be taken into account. Since the responsibility for implementing GDPR guidelines lies with the managing director, that individual should be involved in the process.
Establishing oversight of data security is essential to avoid penalties. Violations of the GDPR can result in fines up to 20 million euros, depending on the type of infringement. Needless to say, such onerous penalties can be crippling, especially for small and medium-sized entities (SMEs).
This is where DEKRA's SafeD GDPR software comes in to keep organizations penalty-free. The company’s data protection officer needs simply answer the SafeD questionnaire to identify potential data protection compliancy gaps.
If SafeD software seems like a good fit for your company, please do not hesitate to contact us for further information. We are more than happy to advise and guide you on your way to data protection compliancy.
