This Audit Log Policy is essential for organizations operating in Denmark to establish and maintain comprehensive system logging practices that comply with both Danish and EU regulatory requirements. The policy becomes necessary when organizations need to ensure proper documentation of system activities, security events, and data access patterns while meeting obligations under GDPR, the Danish Data Protection Act, and sector-specific regulations. It includes detailed specifications for log collection, storage, and retention, along with access control measures and monitoring procedures. The document serves as a cornerstone for maintaining security, demonstrating compliance, and supporting audit requirements in the Danish business environment.
