What a scan checks

Each scan of a product checks these 5 requirements against what the scan found, including the product's software inventory (SBOM).

Requirement	What Safeguard checks	Decided by
`LB-81-SEC` Data Security Duty	Entities processing personal data must take measures to preserve the security and confidentiality of the data and prevent unauthorised alteration or access, which for software includes verifiable integrity of processing components (Law 81/2018 personal data security provisions)	Scan
`LB-81-CTRL` Controller Responsibility for Processing Means	Controllers bear responsibility for the processing they carry out, presuming documented knowledge of the systems and software components used (Law 81/2018 controller obligations)	Scan
`LB-81-PERMIT` Declaration and Permit Documentation	Certain processing operations require prior declaration or licence from the competent ministry with a description of the processing, requiring identifiable, timestamped documentation of the processing environment (Law 81/2018 declaration/licensing regime)	Scan
`LB-81-BREACH` Breach Handling Readiness	Handling security incidents affecting personal data requires the ability to determine which specific components and versions were involved in the compromised processing (Law 81/2018 security and breach handling duties)	Scan
`LB-81-THIRD` Third-Party Processing Oversight	Where processing is entrusted to third parties, the controller must ensure equivalent protection of the data, which extends to recording the suppliers of software used in processing (Law 81/2018 third-party processing provisions)	Scan
