How Safeguard covers AO PDPL

  • Scan requirements: 5, all decided by a scan.
  • Controls: the scan requirements below.
  • Automated tests: none map to it directly. You can link any automated test to its controls yourself (how).
  • Policy templates: 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 5 requirements against what the scan found, including the product's software inventory (SBOM).

RequirementWhat Safeguard checksDecided by
AO-PDPL-SEC Security Measures for ProcessingControllers must adopt technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration and unauthorised access, evidenced by integrity hashes on processing components (Law No. 22/11, security-of-processing obligations)Scan
AO-PDPL-NOT Notification of Processing OperationsProcessing operations must be notified to or authorised by the APD, which presupposes an inventory of the software systems performing the processing (Law No. 22/11, notification and authorisation regime)Scan
AO-PDPL-PROC Subcontracted Processing ControlsProcessing entrusted to a subcontractor must be governed by contract and offer sufficient security guarantees, so third-party software components must have named suppliers (Law No. 22/11, subcontracting provisions)Scan
AO-PDPL-ID Identifiable Processing ComponentsConfidentiality and controlled access to processing systems require their components to be uniquely identifiable (Law No. 22/11, confidentiality and access-control duties)Scan
AO-PDPL-DOC Traceable DocumentationDemonstrating lawful processing to the APD requires software records to be identifiable documents with a creation timestamp (Law No. 22/11, supervisory cooperation duties)Scan
