Validato supports companies in the implementation of NIS2, ISO 27001, and TISAX ( (C) ).

The DACH region is facing a growing challenge: Companies must not only operate economically efficiently, but also meet complex regulatory requirements. With the European NIS2 Directive, ISO 27001, and TISAX, expectations for supply chain security are rising significantly. Insider threats that can arise from insufficiently vetted external partners are particularly critical. In industries such as automotive, mechanical engineering, and manufacturing, collaboration with third parties is standard practice. However, a lack of controls at suppliers can lead to serious security gaps--with legal and financial consequences. The new regulations require risk-based screening not only of internal employees, but also of external business partners. Validato, a specialist in background checks and human risk management, offers a solution that helps companies efficiently implement these regulatory requirements. The platform enables automated, GDPR-compliant, and scalable screening of external partners. This not only ensures compliance, but also strengthens the resilience of the supply chain. "Security doesn't end at the factory gate," explains Reto Marti, COO of Validato. "Companies that don't screen external partners risk not only data loss, but also violations of legal requirements."

Validato's solution is available now and is presented online. It is aimed at organizations that want to expand their security strategy and reliably meet regulatory requirements. In addition, CypSec offers innovative cybersecurity solutions that detect and neutralize digital risks at an early stage - a holistic approach for companies that want to future-proof their compliance and security.
