GRC & Compliance

·FIVE SERVICE BUILDING BLOCKS

Compliance you can actually steer.

We combine ISO 27001, NIS 2, GDPR, the EU AI Act and risk management into one clear program of measures, controls and evidence.

Risk Management

Capture and assess risks and steer them in a risk register that both management and auditors can read.

ISO 27001

Implementation and certification of an ISO 27001-compliant ISMS. Strengthen the security level, build trust with customers and partners.

NIS 2

Implementation of the NIS 2 requirements. Strengthen cyber resilience, ensure compliance for critical infrastructure.

GDPR

Establish and maintain GDPR compliance. Optimize data protection processes, reduce regulatory risk.

EU AI Act

EU AI Act compliance. Make AI systems transparent, secure and trustworthy. Minimize regulatory risk.

We live what we advise. GermanAI Defense has itself been certified to ISO/IEC 27001:2022 since May 2026, audited by the accredited certification body A-Mark Ratings Limited (certificate no. 26052601, valid until 25 May 2029). More on Security & Compliance →

USE CASES

Situations where we support you

GRC & Compliance

Prepare ISO 27001 with structure

Problem: Many companies want to pursue ISO 27001 but don’t know which processes, controls, and evidence are missing.
Approach: We run the gap analysis, build the ISMS structure, plan the measures, and prepare documentation and the audit.
Benefit: A clear path to certification readiness, less organizational chaos, and better security governance.

GRC & Compliance Consulting

GRC & Compliance

Implement NIS-2 requirements

Problem: The NIS-2 Directive raises requirements for cybersecurity, governance, risk management, and audit readiness.
Approach: We run the maturity analysis, plan the measures, define roles and processes, and implement in a documentable way.
Benefit: You know whether you fall under NIS 2, which of the Article 21 duties are still open, and who in the organization is responsible for what.

GRC & Compliance Consulting

GRC & Compliance

Connect GDPR and security cleanly

Problem: Data protection and IT security are often handled separately, even though they’re operationally tightly coupled.
Approach: We connect data-protection requirements, technical and organizational measures, and security architecture into a traceable overall picture.
Benefit: One set of measures that satisfies both the data protection officer and the ISO auditor, instead of two separate lists.

GRC & Compliance / AI Solutions

EU AI Act: readiness for AI systems

Problem: Companies use or plan AI but often don’t know which requirements arise around transparency, risk, data quality, and governance.
Approach: We assess the AI use cases, classify the risk, build the governance structure, and set up documentable control processes.
Benefit: Every AI system has a documented risk class and an owner before the regulator asks.

GRC & Compliance

Build business continuity & disaster recovery

Problem: NIS 2 and ISO 27001 demand resilient continuity plans. Yet many companies lack a business impact analysis, a documented recovery sequence, and rehearsed crisis roles.
Approach: We build the BCM framework, map critical processes, derive RTO / RPO, create disaster recovery plans, set up crisis management teams, and plan the exercises.
Benefit: Ready to act when it counts, demonstrable to regulators and customers, with recovery times you can calculate instead of guess.

GRC & Compliance

BSI IT-Grundschutz for public sector and critical infrastructure

Problem: Public authorities and critical-infrastructure operators must work to BSI IT-Grundschutz, often without a current asset inventory and without the evidence a procurement office asks for.
Approach: We inventory the systems, determine the protection needs, map the modules from the IT-Grundschutz compendium, and prepare the assessment.
Benefit: Ready for the assessment, with the eligibility evidence a procurement office requires.

GRC & Compliance Consulting

GRC & Compliance

Implement DORA for financial services

Problem: DORA requires financial firms to prove digital operational resilience, an ICT risk-management framework, and defined reporting channels. Many firms don’t know where they stand.
Approach: We clarify whether you are in scope, review ICT risk management against the DORA requirements, and set up testing and reporting processes.
Benefit: Digital operational resilience you can demonstrate to the supervisor, without a parallel structure separate from ISO 27001.
