Compliance

Security compliance according to BSI Basic Protection and ISO 27001 involves adhering to certain standards and practices to ensure information security in organizations. BSI Basic Protection offers a methodical approach to identifying and implementing security measures, while ISO 27001 represents an international standard for the Information Security Management System (ISMS).

Challenges and Negative Effects

A significant issue in implementing security compliance according to BSI and ISO 27001 is the tendency to spread efforts too thin. Important issues are addressed too late, instead of focusing on effective measures to protect the "crown jewels". The reduction of the Trusted Computing Base (TCB) and threat modeling are often neglected.

Solutions

To address these challenges, the following solutions should be considered:

Threat Modeling for Crown Jewel Systems

Conducting threat modeling specifically for critical systems to identify and address potential threats and vulnerabilities.

Reducing the Trusted Compute Base

Reducing the Trusted Compute Base to minimize attack surfaces and strengthen the security of core systems.

Knowledge of Critical Defense Measures

Developing expert knowledge about critical defense measures and their effective implementation in a corporate context.

Active Defense

Aligning the defense strategy with actually likely attacks, based on public reports on security incidents and publications.
