Protection des données et conformité
Gérez les données sensibles en toute sécurité tout en respectant les normes de conformité réglementaires.
Data is one of your organisation’s most valuable assets — and one of its greatest liabilities if poorly protected. Regulatory frameworks such as the Swiss nLPD, GDPR, FINMA guidelines, and PCI-DSS impose strict obligations on how organisations collect, store, process, and share sensitive data. The consequences of non-compliance range from significant financial penalties to reputational damage and loss of client trust.
Swiss Expert Group brings together the combined expertise of e-Xpert Solutions, eb-Qual, and One Step Beyond to deliver comprehensive data protection and compliance services across Switzerland. We help organisations understand their data risks, implement the right controls, and demonstrate compliance to regulators and auditors.
Our Data Protection & Compliance Capabilities :
Data Security in Multi-Cloud & Hybrid Environments
Sensitive data no longer lives in a single place. We design and implement data security controls tailored to multi-cloud and hybrid environments, ensuring consistent protection regardless of where your data resides — on-premises, in Microsoft Azure, AWS, or across SaaS applications.
Access Controls & Real-Time Monitoring
Preventing unauthorised access and sharing starts with knowing who has access to what. We implement advanced access controls and real-time monitoring solutions that detect and alert on suspicious data access and exfiltration attempts before damage occurs.
Data Loss Prevention (DLP)
We deploy DLP tools to proactively detect and mitigate risks of data leakage across networks, endpoints, and cloud services. Our DLP implementations are policy-driven, tailored to your data classification framework, and integrated with your existing security operations.
Encryption at Rest & in Transit
We implement encryption solutions to protect the confidentiality of sensitive data — whether stored in databases and file systems, or transmitted across networks and cloud platforms. Proper key management and certificate lifecycle management are integral to our approach.
Compliance Monitoring & Audit-Ready Reporting
Continuous compliance requires continuous monitoring. We deploy solutions that provide real-time visibility into your compliance posture, generate detailed audit-ready reports, and alert your teams when deviations occur — reducing the burden on your compliance and legal functions.
Regulatory Framework Alignment
We help organisations align with the regulatory frameworks that apply to them — including the Swiss nLPD, GDPR, FINMA circulars, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, and ISO 27001. Our approach is practical: we translate regulatory requirements into concrete technical and organisational controls.

Frequently Asked Questions – Data Protection & Compliance in Switzerland
Q : What are the main data protection regulations applicable to Swiss organisations?
Swiss organisations are primarily subject to the revised Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (nLPD), which came into force in September 2023. Organisations operating in or serving clients in the European Union must also comply with the GDPR. Depending on sector, additional requirements apply — FINMA circulars for financial institutions, PCI-DSS for organisations handling payment card data, and HIPAA for those processing US healthcare data.
Q : What is Data Loss Prevention (DLP)?
Data Loss Prevention (DLP) refers to a set of tools and policies that detect and prevent the unauthorised transfer, sharing, or exposure of sensitive data. DLP solutions monitor data in use, in motion, and at rest — alerting security teams or automatically blocking actions that violate defined policies, such as sending confidential files to personal email accounts or uploading data to unauthorised cloud services.
Q : What is the difference between data protection and data compliance?
Data protection refers to the technical and organisational measures used to secure sensitive data — encryption, access controls, DLP, and monitoring. Data compliance refers to demonstrating that your organisation meets the requirements of applicable regulations and standards. The two are complementary: robust data protection controls are the foundation of a credible compliance programme.
Q : Which data protection technologies does Swiss Expert Group work with?
Swiss Expert Group implements and manages solutions from Cribl, Forcepoint, Kiteworks, Microsoft, Netskope, Proofpoint, Splunk, and Semperis, selecting the right combination based on your data environment, regulatory obligations, and existing infrastructure.
