Is a data processing agreement enough to be GDPR compliant?

No. A data processing agreement is only the legal foundation. The GDPR also requires technical measures such as access control, backup and encryption.

Which IT systems are the most critical for the GDPR?

Systems that process personal data, such as Microsoft 365, CRM systems and payroll systems, are the most critical.

Why is MFA important in relation to the GDPR?

MFA is an essential technical security requirement, as it prevents unauthorised access to personal data when passwords are compromised.

How do we store personal data securely in Microsoft 365?

By configuring permissions correctly, enabling MFA, using encryption and protecting data with backup.

Do you help assess whether our IT suppliers are GDPR compliant?

Yes. We review your IT suppliers and make sure the correct data processing agreements are in place.

What are the consequences of inadequate IT security under the GDPR?

The consequences can include data breaches, heavy fines from the Danish Data Protection Agency and loss of customer trust.

GDPR support: how to ensure IT compliance

Many businesses see the GDPR as a purely legal matter. At Teknisk Support, however, we find that the biggest challenge for SMEs lies in the practical, technical implementation. Without the right IT infrastructure, your legal documentation is rarely sufficient.

What does GDPR support involve in practice?

GDPR support is not just about law; it is about making sure your IT systems actively protect personal data against unauthorised access and loss. That requires ongoing monitoring and updating of your security environment.

The 3 most important technical pillars of compliance

Data processing agreements

It is your responsibility to ensure that suppliers comply with the GDPR. We help with your Microsoft data processing agreement and other data processing agreement requirements.

Access control

Protecting user accounts is fundamental. One of the most effective tools is two-factor authentication (MFA). Read more about how to enable MFA in Microsoft 365.

Backup

The GDPR requires that you can restore data after system failures or attacks. We recommend a robust Microsoft 365 backup.

Checklist for your IT compliance

Is MFA enabled on all user accounts?
Do you have an up-to-date overview of all systems containing personal data?
Have data processing agreements been signed with all relevant IT partners?
Has your backup solution been tested and verified?
Do you use tools such as iubenda for cookie compliance?

When should you seek external GDPR support?

If your IT environment has outgrown the standard solutions you can manage yourselves, or if you are unsure whether your current setup is adequately protected, it is time to get external help. We offer professional IT security and advice that lets you sleep soundly at night.
