Ensures the secure management of sensitive data, while maintaining compliance with regulatory standards.<\/h2>\n

Data is one of your organisation’s most valuable assets \u2014 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.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_accordion _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Q : What are the main data protection regulations applicable to Swiss organisations?” open=”on” open_toggle_text_color=”#C5310D” closed_toggle_text_color=”#C5310D” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” toggle_font_size=”1.2em” toggle_line_height=”1.4em” closed_toggle_font_size=”1.2em”]<\/p>\n

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 \u2014 FINMA circulars for financial institutions, PCI-DSS for organisations handling payment card data, and HIPAA for those processing US healthcare data.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Q : What is Data Loss Prevention (DLP)?” open_toggle_text_color=”#C5310D” closed_toggle_text_color=”#C5310D” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” toggle_font_size=”1.2em” toggle_line_height=”1.4em” closed_toggle_font_size=”1.2em” open=”off”]<\/p>\n

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 \u2014 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.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Q : What is the difference between data protection and data compliance?” open_toggle_text_color=”#C5310D” closed_toggle_text_color=”#C5310D” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” toggle_font_size=”1.2em” toggle_line_height=”1.4em” closed_toggle_font_size=”1.2em” open=”off”]<\/p>\n

Data protection refers to the technical and organisational measures used to secure sensitive data \u2014 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.<\/p>\n
