SAP Cloud Infrastructure in Germany Receives IT-Grundschutz Certification

SAP announced that its cloud infrastructure in Germany has achieved IT-Grundschutz certification – an information security standard that confirms compliance with national requirements for the protection of data and systems.

The certification comes at a time when security and digital sovereignty are becoming increasingly important and are turning into mandatory conditions for the adoption of modern technological solutions.

Security as a Core Requirement

Today, organizations, especially in the public sector and highly regulated industries, are not only looking for innovation and scalability. Increasing importance is also placed on having proven security mechanisms aligned with national standards and regulations.

In this context, the IT-Grundschutz certification confirms that SAP applies structured measures to protect:

• information systems
• data
• network infrastructure
  
  

Focus on Trust and Compliance

By achieving this certification, SAP aims to meet the requirements of customers operating in environments with high security demands. This includes organizations that must ensure:

• compliance with national and European regulations
• transparency in data management
• reliability of cloud services
  
  

Role for the Public Sector and Regulated Industries

IT-Grundschutz is particularly important for government institutions and companies in sectors such as finance, healthcare, and critical infrastructure, where security and control over data are essential.

With this move, SAP strengthens its position as a provider of cloud services that not only offer innovation and scalability but also meet strict requirements for security and digital sovereignty.
