Core principle 7: Coherent security

In order to safely share data, technology, humans and processes should be coordinated. The BDI therefore focuses on Coherent Security: security on every single level and as a whole.

How does it work?

The BDI maintains security on three levels:

  1. Technical security: Each component (from applications till connections) adheres to high security norms.
  2. Secured collaboration: Safe communication between systems and organizations
  3. Operational security: Human acting is supported by logging, access control and automatic controls.

What does that mean in practice?

  • Secure data sharing, even with new or unknown parties
  • Reduced change of errors or data leakage
  • Reliable collaboration between systems
  • Security and usability are well-balanced
  • Security as an integral part of the BDI agreement framework
