The challenge now being addressed is to make these emerging domain-specific data storage operational and legally compliant usable through supplementary solutions. The data products that are created and provided by data producers and make it possible to provide domain-specific insights for different contexts should be able to be viewed by data consumers and used for their own, further data products. Specifically, solutions should be developed or provided that cover the following aspects: Data producers use the data product inventory as a central provisioning environment to provide, manage and continuously develop their data products in a transparent, structured and quality-assured manner to ensure their discoverability, trustworthiness and usability.
We are looking for a solution that meets the following requirements as far as possible: Suitability for proof according to §8a BSIG with corresponding reporting Illustration of ISO 27001, ideally with BSI IT-Grundschutz as a set of rules Timely updateability in the event of changes to the law (e.g. NIS2 implementation law or Kritis umbrella law) Interfaces of your solution to other systems (e.g. interface to IT inventory tools, to employee master data management systems, etc.) Audit security and traceability of historical statuses Mapping of emergency management/business continuity management (e.g. BIA, restart plans, emergency documentation and contacts) including offline availability Does the tool allow BSI vulnerability reports to be checked automatically? What does a sensible implementation strategy (e.g. change management and training) look like? How can the information from the old system be migrated to the new system as effectively as possible according to IT-Grundschutz? The challenge giver will be available again for questions from August 19, 2025.
