ID Shield Protect
End-to-End Data and Security Governance for SMEs in the SEE Region
ID Shield Protect empowers small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) across the South-East Europe (SEE) region to meet the growing challenges of GDPR, NIS2, and ISO 27001 compliance — without building an expensive internal compliance department.
In today’s interconnected economy, one company’s weakness can expose an entire supply chain.
When a key customer becomes NIS2-critical, all partners — from service providers to subcontractors — must prove their data protection and cybersecurity readiness.
ID Shield Protect allows companies to share governance costs, standardize data protection, and demonstrate continuous compliance — ensuring everyone in the business chain focuses on one shared goal: protecting the customer.
