Whitepaper – Identity & Access Management in the BSI Critical Infrastructure Regulation

The German Federal Ministry of the Interior (BMI) defines Critical Infrastructures (KRITIS) as organisations and facilities whose significant disruption or failure would have serious consequences for public welfare, such as supply shortages or disruptions to public safety.

The BSI Critical Infrastructure Regulation (BSI-Kritisverordnung) defines the individual sectors and thresholds that determine whether an organisation qualifies as critical infrastructure.

Organisations classified as critical infrastructure are required under the German IT Security Act to protect their information technology systems, components and processes in accordance with the current state of the art.

This whitepaper also covers industry-specific security standards (B3S), why critical infrastructure organisations need Identity & Access Management (IAM), and which critical security vulnerabilities can be addressed through IAM.
