Without the use of IT, our everyday life and our supply of goods and services would no longer be conceivable. However, cybercrime, misuse of values and rights, lack of evidence, etc. reveal equally weighty downsides. On the one hand, companies and organizations are expected to ensure information security and compliance with laws and regulations. On the other hand, implementation in digital processes is highly complex. The organizational structures from the pre-digitization era are not suitable for this. How can information security and compliance be implemented in an economically appropriate, practical and future-proof manner? The prerequisite is to be able to organize and precisely control IT deployment in the respective area of operation in a holistic manner.
