The Security Audit Policy serves as a foundational document for organizations operating in Denmark, establishing systematic procedures for evaluating and ensuring information security compliance. This document becomes essential as Danish businesses face increasing cybersecurity challenges and stricter regulatory requirements, including GDPR and sector-specific regulations. The policy outlines comprehensive audit procedures, responsibilities, and reporting requirements while ensuring compliance with Danish legal frameworks. Organizations should implement this Security Audit Policy to maintain robust security controls, demonstrate regulatory compliance, and protect sensitive information assets. The document is particularly relevant given Denmark's advanced digital infrastructure and the need for strong cybersecurity governance in both public and private sectors.
