Nine have been fully implemented. They relate to digital governance, the federal architecture, operation security and resilience, consideration of the user perspective, and risk mitigation and management. One recommendation is still in the process of being implemented. It is directed at the FOITT and relates to the strengthening of security measures for operations support systems (OSS). Two recommendations are obsolete: one on external auditing of the public key infrastructure (PKI) at the FOITT, and one on enterprise architecture in the hardware management of IT in the DTI Sector.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","audit_category":[177],"audit_type":[234],"class_list":["post-44160","audit","type-audit","status-publish","hentry","audit_category-it-projects","audit_type-it-audit"],"acf":{"audit_lang":null,"audit_numbers":[{"audit_number":"25108"}],"audit_office":[1283,22361],"audit_office_text":"","audit_date":"20260513","bgo":false,"keywords":"","audit_office_local":"FOITT, DTI Sector"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.5 (Yoast SEO v27.5) -
