Rheingehäckt #05 Which laws apply to IT security?

An interview with our Managing Director Wolfgang Straßer:
"Rheingehäckt - the Rhineland podcast for more digital sovereignty in politics, business and society"

Attacks on critical infrastructure can paralyze society as a whole: The power supply can collapse, hospitals can be severely impaired in their work and communication and transportation networks can be brought to a standstill.

Clear legal requirements therefore apply to KRITIS companies. But what about all other companies that do not fall under the KRITIS thresholds? They are just as at risk of falling victim to a cyberattack, but there are no special IT security laws (yet).

In this podcast, we discuss why this is the case, how the legal regulation of data security and data protection came about and where the journey is heading. 

The format regularly invites personalities from politics and business to debate various issues with our @-yet CEO Wolfgang Straßer for about an hour.

guest: Mareike Gehrmann Taylor Wessing
