A concept for the structural design of security capabilities in IT landscapes that defines principles, patterns and interfaces for protection measures.
Security architecture defines the structural placement of security capabilities across an IT estate. It specifies principles, patterns, and interfaces for distributing controls, identity and access management, and monitoring across systems and infrastructure. The aim is consistent risk reduction and traceable, auditable protection controls.
Average time to detect a security-relevant incident.
Average time to remediate an identified vulnerability or incident.
Share of systems that meet current security standards and configurations.
Zoning, microsegmented networks and centralized identity management to minimize lateral movement.
Standardized security layers and an audit pipeline to meet regulatory requirements.
Concepts for redundancy, monitoring and incident response with clear responsibilities.
Initial assessment: create asset inventory, data classification and threat model.
Define architecture principles, zoning and control objectives.
Pilot implementation in one domain and validation of controls.
Rollout, introduce monitoring and establish continuous improvement.
