How Safeguard covers AX DP Act

  • Scan requirements: 6, all decided by a scan.
  • Controls: the scan requirements below.
  • Automated tests: none map to it directly. You can link any automated test to its controls yourself (how).
  • Policy templates: 22 from the standard set.

How each kind of coverage works, and what the readiness score counts: Compliance frameworks.

What a scan checks

Each scan of a product checks these 6 requirements against what the scan found, including the product's software inventory (SBOM).

RequirementWhat Safeguard checksDecided by
AX-GDPR-32 Security of ProcessingControllers and processors must implement technical measures ensuring ongoing integrity of processing systems, including the ability to verify components against tampering via integrity hashes (GDPR Art. 32; Data Protection Act 1050/2018).Scan
AX-GDPR-30 Records of Processing ActivitiesMaintaining records of processing activities presupposes an inventory of the software components that carry out the processing (GDPR Art. 30).Scan
AX-GDPR-28 Processor GuaranteesProcessing may only be entrusted to processors providing sufficient guarantees, so third-party components must have named, accountable suppliers (GDPR Art. 28).Scan
AX-GDPR-5F Integrity and Confidentiality PrincipleThe integrity-and-confidentiality principle requires knowing precisely which components handle personal data, so components should carry standard identifiers such as PURL or CPE (GDPR Art. 5(1)(f)).Scan
AX-GDPR-33 Breach-Notification ReadinessNotifying the supervisory authority within 72 hours of a breach presupposes knowing the exact versions of the software processing personal data so impact can be assessed quickly (GDPR Arts. 33-34).Scan
AX-GDPR-5-2 Demonstrable AccountabilityThe accountability principle requires being able to demonstrate compliance, which calls for dated, identifiable documentation of the systems used to process personal data (GDPR Art. 5(2)).Scan
