To obtain the D-seal, a company must meet several criteria in areas such as IT security, data protection, and data ethics, which are based on international standards and tailored to each type of business.

When you start the process of becoming D-sealed, your company will be placed into one of four different business groups, each with its own criteria. The group's criteria depend on the company's size, business model, and use of data and IT services.

There are a total of 8 main criteria, which you can see in the overview below. Each criteria has different sub-criteria and requirements that can vary depending on your company. You can get an overview of the criteria your company needs to meet by registering in the D-seal's self-assessment tool and answer the first questions.

Working with IT security is not east and questions may arise, so don't hesitate to book a meeting if you need to know more about the criteria, business groups, the process, or anything else.

The D-seal helps your company demonstrate your responsibility and commitment to security to customers, colleagues, and society.
