How Safeguard covers EISA EE

  • Scan requirements: 6, all decided by a scan.
  • Controls: the scan requirements below, plus 14 controls from Safeguard's control catalog for EISA EE.
  • Automated tests: none map to it directly. You can link any automated test to its controls yourself (how).
  • Policy templates: 24: 2 written for EISA EE and 22 from the standard set.

How each kind of coverage works, and what the readiness score counts: Compliance frameworks.

What a scan checks

Each scan of a product checks these 6 requirements against what the scan found, including the product's software inventory (SBOM).

RequirementWhat Safeguard checksDecided by
EE-EITS-INV Baseline Asset InventoryThe baseline security methodology requires a structure analysis inventorying all applications and systems within scope, so every software component must be recorded (E-ITS/ISKE baseline methodology, inherited from IT-Grundschutz structure analysis)Scan
EE-CSA-SEC Duty to Apply Security MeasuresSystem operators covered by the Cybersecurity Act must apply organisational and technical measures proportionate to risk to keep systems secure, including maintaining software at known, patchable versions (Cybersecurity Act 2018, security-measures obligation)Scan
EE-EITS-PATCH Patch Management PrecisionBaseline patch and change management modules require software to run at precisely determined versions rather than vague or floating version specifications (E-ITS operational security modules)Scan
EE-CSA-INC Incident Notification ReadinessSignificant cyber incidents must be reported promptly to the national CSIRT (CERT-EE), which requires the ability to quickly match affected components against published vulnerability identifiers (Cybersecurity Act 2018, incident-notification obligation)Scan
EE-EITS-DOC Documented Security RecordsImplementation of baseline measures must be documented and auditable, so machine-readable security records need a document identity and creation timestamp (E-ITS documentation requirements)Scan
EE-CSA-SUP Responsibility for Outsourced ServicesService providers remain responsible for security when relying on third parties, requiring the supplier of software components underpinning the service to be identified (Cybersecurity Act 2018, service-provider responsibility)Scan

More controls in the catalog

The framework's Controls tab lists its scan requirements and these controls from Safeguard's control catalog. Evidence them with automated tests, uploaded evidence, policies or an attestation.
