VS-NfD Implementation

Implementing VS-NfD requirements is mandatory for companies with security clearance in Germany. Since September 2025, companies processing classified information at the VS-NfD level must formally self-accredit their IT systems. We support you in the systematic implementation of all requirements from the VS-NfD guidelines (GHB Annex 4), the Verschlusssachenanweisung (VSA) and the Sicherheitsüberprüfungsgesetz (SÜG).

We guide companies with security clearance through the entire implementation process — from gap analysis through security concept development to successful self-accreditation. Our approach combines the requirements from VSA, SÜG and GHB with pragmatic implementation in your organisation.
