[RECAP] GBA Workshop | DIGI-TEXX x TÜV Rheinland: From Standards to Practice – Securing Operations the ISO 27001 Way

On 27 August 2026, the German Business Association (GBA), together with DIGI-TEXX Vietnam and TÜV Rheinland, welcomed around 40 GBA members and business representatives for an exclusive site visit and knowledge-sharing session focused on data security, compliance, and operational excellence in today’s digital business environment.

From strategy to practical implementation, participants gained valuable insights into how organizations can strengthen information security, manage compliance requirements, and build greater operational resilience in an increasingly data-driven business landscape.

Through expert presentations and interactive discussions, key topics included:
🔹 ISO 27001 implementation
🔹 Governance & compliance
🔹 IT controls & operational risk
🔹 Business continuity & resilience

One key takeaway stood out: information security is a business responsibility, not only an IT responsibility.

Business leaders and managers play a crucial role in identifying operational risks, ensuring business continuity, and embedding security into everyday processes. At the same time, IT acts as an important enabler, providing the tools and technical solutions to turn security strategies into practice.

The programme also featured behind-the-scenes facility tours at DIGI-TEXX and TÜV Rheinland laboratories, offering participants a closer look at how governance, security controls, and operational standards are applied in real-world environments.

A big thank you to our speakers Ms. Diep Nguyen, Mr. Huy Trinh, Ms. Kashish Bhambi, and Mr. Trung Nguyen Thanh, as well as our partners DIGI-TEXX Vietnam and TÜV Rheinland, for sharing their expertise and practical insights. We also sincerely appreciate all GBA members and business representatives who joined the session and contributed to the discussions.

By connecting business expertise with practical knowledge, GBA continues to foster a more secure, resilient, and digitally prepared business community in Vietnam.
