Status
Project is ongoing

To implement an information security standard (E-ITS, also known as the Estonian Information Security Standard or ISO/IEC 27001) at the university. The implementation of the information security standard helps ensure comprehensive protection for the business processes and information systems used to fulfill the university’s tasks, establishing a consistent level of information security across all areas. Improved organization of information security within the university, including its integration into all processes, allows us to focus on our core activities and be prepared to respond to attacks and other information security threats. Additionally, the implementation of the standard ensures that the university’s operations comply with various regulations and agreements.

As a public university, the university is obligated to implement the appropriate standard in accordance with the Cybersecurity Act and relevant regulations issued by the Government of the Republic.
