ENS certification for companies: we prepare you to comply with the National Security Scheme

What is the National Security Scheme (ENS Certification) and when is it mandatory?

The National Security Scheme (ENS) is a Spanish regulation that establishes the principles, requirements, and security measures that both Public Administrations and companies that provide services to public bodies must comply with.

Since the entry into force of Royal Decree 311/2022, the requirements of the ENS have been tightened, and the number of entities required to comply with it has increased considerably.

If your organization manages data or provides technological, development, consulting, or support services to public entities, it is mandatory to comply with the ENS and have an official certification issued by an accredited body.

What is the National Security Scheme (ENS)?

The National Security Scheme (ENS) is a Spanish regulation that establishes the principles, requirements, and security measures that Public Administrations and the entities that collaborate with them must adopt, with the aim of guaranteeing the adequate protection of the information and electronic services they handle.

What are the main requirements for obtaining ENS certification?

To obtain ENS certification, an organization must comply with a series of requirements structured in three main blocks:

  1. Basic principles: comprehensive security, risk management, prevention, reaction and recovery, lines of defense, and continuous reevaluation.
  2. Minimum requirements: security organization, risk analysis, personnel management, access control, facility protection, business continuity, among others.
  3. Security measures: divided into organizational, operational, and protection frameworks, with a total of 75 measures designed to guarantee the security of information systems.

What security levels does the ENS establish and how are they determined?

The ENS defines three levels of security:

  • Low level: for information with low impact if compromised.
  • Medium level: for systems whose affectation would have significant consequences.
  • High level: for critical systems whose affectation could have a serious impact.

The applicable level is determined through an impact analysis based on the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the information processed.

What does the ENS certification process entail for a company?

The process includes:

  1. Initial evaluation of the degree of current compliance.
  2. Adaptation plan with measures to implement.
  3. Implementation of technical and organizational measures.
  4. Internal audit to verify compliance.
  5. External audit by an accredited entity, which issues the certificate if everything is in order.

Is it mandatory to obtain ENS certification for all companies?

Not for all. But it is for those that provide technological services or manage information for the Public Administration. It is also highly recommended for any company that wants to work with public entities or improve its positioning in tenders.

At Edorteam, we offer a complete service: we carry out the initial analysis, draft the mandatory documentation, implement the necessary measures, carry out the internal audit, and accompany you throughout the process until you obtain ENS certification with guarantees and without delays.

What happens if I do not obtain ENS certification?

Failure to comply with ENS certification can result in legal penalties and the impossibility of participating in public tenders. In addition, it can affect the confidence of clients and business partners, since you would not demonstrate that you adequately manage information security.

What happens after obtaining the ENS certificate?

Once your company obtains ENS certification, you must continue to maintain security measures and undergo periodic audits to ensure continuous compliance with the regulations. This guarantees that your company is always protected against threats and vulnerabilities.
