Comprehensive legal support in the protection of classified information
Ongoing legal support for organisations and companies processing classified information – from implementing the protection system to day-to-day advice and preparation for inspections.
Scope of ongoing support
- Ongoing advice for the head of the organisation and the classified information protection officer.
- Assessment of the existing protection system against the Act and its implementing regulations.
- Preparation for inspections by ABW or SKW and support in implementing post-inspection recommendations.
- Review of contracts and agreements whose performance involves access to classified information.
- Support in vetting procedures and personnel security clearance matters.
- Updating documentation after changes in the law, the organisational structure or the scope of information processed.
Who it is for
The service is intended for companies performing contracts involving access to classified information, in particular in the defence, energy and ICT sectors, and for public-sector bodies that want continuous access to legal support in this area.
How we work
We start with a review of the current situation: what classified information and at which levels is processed, who has access to it and what documentation already exists. On this basis we identify gaps, set priorities and agree the scope of ongoing support.
Frequently asked questions
Who is responsible for the protection of classified information in an organisation?
The head of the organisation is responsible. The classified information protection officer reports directly to the head and ensures compliance with the regulations within the organisation.
Does the service include preparation for inspections?
Yes. Reviewing the documentation and practice before an ABW or SKW inspection makes it possible to remedy irregularities before they are recorded in the inspection report. We also help implement post-inspection recommendations.
