How Safeguard covers TG PDPL

  • Scan requirements: 5, 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 5 requirements against what the scan found, including the product's software inventory (SBOM).

RequirementWhat Safeguard checksDecided by
TG-PDPL-SEC Security of ProcessingControllers must implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against destruction, loss, alteration and unauthorised access, evidenced by integrity hashes on processing components (Law No. 2019-014, security-of-processing obligations)Scan

TG-PDPL-PROC Processor GuaranteesProcessing on behalf of a controller must be governed by contract with sufficient security guarantees, so third-party software components must have named suppliers (Law No. 2019-014, controller-processor provisions)Scan
TG-PDPL-ID Identifiable ComponentsConfidentiality duties and incident investigation require the components of processing systems to be uniquely identifiable via PURL or CPE (Law No. 2019-014, confidentiality and enforcement provisions)Scan
