How Safeguard covers SL Malabo

  • 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
SL-MAL-21 Security of Processing SystemsThe data controller must take all appropriate precautions, given the nature of the data, to prevent it from being altered, destroyed, or accessed by unauthorized third parties; verifiable integrity hashes on the software components that process data evidence this safeguard (Malabo Convention Art. 21)Scan
SL-MAL-20 Confidentiality and Controlled ProcessingProcessing must remain confidential and be carried out only by parties acting under the controller's authority, which requires that the suppliers behind processing software are known and accountable (Malabo Convention Art. 20)Scan
SL-MAL-13A Accuracy of ProcessingPersonal data undergoing processing must be accurate and kept up to date, which presumes each software component handling it is fully identified by both name and a concrete version (Malabo Convention Art. 13)Scan
SL-MAL-13T Transparency PrincipleControllers are bound by a principle of transparent processing, which presupposes documented, uniquely identified and timestamped records of the processing environment (Malabo Convention Art. 13)Scan
SL-MAL-10 Processing Formalities and RecordsPersonal-data processing operations are subject to preliminary formalities before the national protection authority, requiring an enumerable, named record of the software performing the processing (Malabo Convention Art. 10)Scan
SL-MAL-23 Sustainability of Processing SystemsControllers must ensure processing systems remain adequate and reliable as technology evolves; declared component versions are the basis for keeping systems current and supportable (Malabo Convention Art. 23)Scan
