What is a protection needs analysis?
The protection needs analysis determines the protection needs for data or resources (IT systems, buildings, software, etc.) of organizational units or processes. The results of this analysis, the protection needs of the data and processes, can be examined in the structural analysis, for example, to identify risks and create measures and controls accordingly.

As can be seen in the figure above, professionals and experts can find protection requirement analyses that have been created in the current management system under "Risk management → Protection needs". All protection requirement analyses are displayed, regardless of whether they are completed, in progress or in draft status. Likewise, protection requirement analyses can be created or reassessed here, and workflow plans can be created.
You can download a report on one or more protection needs analyses as a PDF. This contains all marked protection needs analyses.
Create/edit protection needs analysis
Create:
- Protection needs analyses can be created under "Risk Management → Protection needs" via the "Plus" button.
Edit:
- To edit a protection needs analysis, open the required protection needs analysis under "Risk management → Protection needs" by double-clicking on it.
- Completed protection needs analyses can be viewed, but no longer edited!
Header data of the protection needs analysis
The following section describes the mapping in more detail:

Select OrgUnit/Process:
- In a protection needs analysis, either organizational units or processes can be analyzed. What is to be analyzed is selected via the audit item.
- This selection can only be changed as long as no resources were assigned in step 2. To be able to change the selection, the assigned resources must first be removed in step 2.
- Note: If an organizational unit or a process already have a relationship to resources and/or data categories in the structural analysis, those will automatically be proposed to be added in step 2 of the protection needs analysis. Any protection needs analyses already done are also considered here. In addition, it's possible to adopt the previous analysis' results with the click of a button. The results can also be adopted later for each resource/data category.
- Caution: Resources and data categories that already have an as yet open protection needs analysis in connection with the selected organizational unit or process are not automatically proposed and cannot be added manually either. To add them, any open protection needs analyses in the respective constellation must be closed first.
Audit:
- If this protection needs analysis is carried out in the course of an audit, you can relate the audit to the protection needs analysis here. If the protection needs analysis arises as a result of an audit, the fields lead auditor, interview partner, and start and end date of the audit are populated. Alternatively, the header data can be incorporated via the button on the right. (For more on audits, see Audit planning).
OrgUnit/Process:
- Depending on whether an OrgUnit or a process is analyzed, either the organizational unit or the process is selected here.
- This can no longer be changed after the first save!
Function:
- Is only displayed, if it was activated under "Audit management → Settings"
- Functions allow you to optionally further define the context of a review.
- Functions can be created and managed under "Audit management → Functions".
Name:
- The name of the protection needs analysis is entered here.
Description:
- The purpose of the protection needs analysis should be described here.
Lead auditor:
- The main examiner responsible for the protection needs analysis is entered here. They select the resources and/or data that will be analyzed in the course of the protection needs analysis. They determine additional examiners as well as interview partners.
Co-auditors/Companion(s):
- These are individuals who are included as subject matter experts for the protection needs analysis.
Interview partners:
- Interviews about resources and data are conducted with these individuals during the course of a protection needs analysis. In the course of a self assessment, they are tasked with identifying potential damages (see type).
- The users are pre-filled with those set as responsible for the selected organizational unit or process.
Start and end date:
- The planned time span of the protection needs analysis is entered here.
Type:
- Interview: The protection needs analysis is conducted together with the interview partner. The interview partner themselves cannot change anything in the protection needs analysis, but has insight into the analysis.
- Self assessment: the interview partner is tasked with determining possible damage in the event of violations of protection targets. The auditor requests a response via the "Request response" button (if the protection needs analysis has been activated) and reviews it after it has been answered.
Workflow plans:
- This shows, how many workflow plans the protection needs analysis is a part of, either actively or paused. Links can be set anew or deeleted here and existing links can be paused.
Created by workflow plan:
- If the protection needs analysis was created by a workflow, the respective workflow is shown here. You can navigate into the workflow with a simple click and take a look at its details.
Change log:
- Here, it is recorded at what time the protection needs analysis was edited, when the status changed, and when it was completed.
Status and deletion of a protection needs analysis
A protection needs analysis can have different status variations. If the e-mail notifications are active in the management system, all persons relevant in the workflow are prompted to perform their tasks when the status changes. This would be, for example, the interview partner when an auditor requests a response or the auditor themselves when the response is returned.
Draft
- When the protection needs analysis is saved for the first time or deactivated from the "In progress" status, it is in the "Draft" status. From here, the protection needs analysis can be activated, i.e. set to the "In progress" status.
In progress
- If the review is activated, it will be set to the status "In progress". Now it is time for the lead auditor to perform the protection needs analysis or to request a response from the interview partner(s) by "Request response" (only for the type self assessment).
- It can be returned to the "Draft" status by selecting "Deactivate review".
- It can be moved to the "Closed" status by selecting "Close review".
Requested (only for self assessments)
- If the protection needs analysis is requested by the lead auditor, it is placed in the status "Requested". The interview partner(s) will now be prompted via e-mail to perform the protection needs analysis.
- It can be placed in the status "Answered" status by selecting "Submit review".
Answered (only for self assessments)
- If the protection needs analysis is returned by the interview partner via "Submit review", it is set to the status "Answered". The auditors are now prompted via e-mail to check the response.
- It can be returned to the status "Requested" by selecting "Request response" again. The interview partner should then revise their response.
- It can be put back into the status "Draft" by selecting "Disable review". The auditors will be informed of this.
- It can be moved to the status "Closed" by selecting "Close review".
Closed
- If the protection needs analysis is set to the status "Closed" by selecting "Complete review", the protection needs analysis becomes read-only and it can no longer be edited. This sets and weights the links between the resources and/or data to the OrgUnit or process in the structural analysis.
Delete a protection needs analysis.
- By "Delete review" you can delete protection needs analyses that are not completed yet. Completed protection needs analyses cannot be deleted!
Select resources and/or data for analysis
The second step is to select the resources and/or data that will be analyzed in the protection needs analysis.
To add linked resources or data categories and possibly adopt their previous results, the first button must be clicked. To add resources or data to the analysis, the second button must be clicked. A dialog opens where the resources or data to be analyzed can be selected.
The tab can be used to switch between resources and data.
Tip:
- Changes (creation/update/deletion) to resources and data categories lead to an automatic update of open protection needs analyses. This allows you to create or modify resources and data categories in a separate browser tab and then use them in the PNA right away, without havingt to reload it.



Analyze possible damages
The following figure shows the third step of the protection needs analysis (e.g., 2.1 or 2.2).

In this step, the resources and/or data are analyzed for possible damage that could occur if a protection target is violated. Violations are evaluated by the extent of damage. If there are results from earlier analyses, the justifications can be taken over with a double click into the respective line. The button in the top right corner allows you to adopt all results with one click.
The extents of damage selected here are used in the structural analysis to set connections between the OrgUnit or process and the assessed resource or data and to weight their protection targets. This makes it possible in the structural analysis to examine the organizational unit or the process for dependencies and to identify risks.
To evaluate all resources and data, it is necessary to switch between the added resources and data via the bar to the left or the "Next" button.
The protection targets to be evaluated are specified by the management system and can be configured by experts under "Administration → Management Systems → Used protection targets".
Extents of damage can be created and managed by experts under "Risk management → Risk policy → Extents of damage".
Reassess protection needs analysis

A protection needs analysis can be reassessed, if...
... it is closed.
... it is the youngest (meaning the one with the most recent begin date) protection needs analysis for the contained resources and/or data categories.
Für Neubewertungen gibt es verschiedene Möglichkeiten der Erstellung:
- Plus Button: Erstellen einer neuen Schutzbedarfsanalyse für eine Organisationseinheit/einen Prozess, für die/den es bereits eine abgeschlossene Schutzbedarfsanalyse gibt. In diesem Fall werden vom Tool die bewerteten Ressourcen und/oder Datenkategorien automatisch übernommen. Etwaige Ergebnisse können optional übernommen werden.
- Neubewerten Button: Erstellen einer Neubewertung über den Neubewerten Button in der Übersicht der Schutzbedarfsanalysen. In diesem Fall erstellt das Tool eine neue Schutzbedarfsanalyse auf Basis der vorherigen. Auch hier kann man frühere Ergebnisse übernehmen. Als Datum wird das aktuelle Datum genommen, für die Uhrzeit wird die Beginn- und Endzeit der originalen Schutzbedarfsanalyse kopiert.
Adopt results:
- If activated, the results of the base protection needs analysis are adopted in the creation of the new one. These are the evaluations of the protection targets that were recorded.
Workflow plans
Ein Klick auf den lila Button oberhalb der Übersicht der Schutzbedarfsanalysen öffnet eine Liste aller erstellten Workflowpläne.

Workflowplan erstellen/bearbeiten
Mit dem "Plus" Button kann ein neuer Workflowplan erstellt werden.
Mit dem "Kopieren" Button kann ein bestehender Workflowplan kopiert werden.
Bestehende Workflowpläne können mit einem Doppelklick geöffnet werden.

Status:
- Standardmäßig sind Workflowpläne aktiv. Man kann sie mit diesem Auswahlfeld auch deaktivieren.
Bezeichnung:
- Geben Sie hier die Bezeichnung Ihres Workflowplanes ein.
Beschreibung:
- Geben Sie hier an, was der Zweck des Workflowplanes ist.
Verantwortliche:
- Der Verantwortliche wird eine Woche bevor der Workflow auslöst per E-Mail informiert. Sollte es zu diesem Zeitpunkt Probleme oder Konflikte geben, werden diese im E-Mail beschrieben und können daher rechtzeitig beseitigt werden. Der Verantwortliche wird auch beim Auslösen des Workflows darüber informiert, was durchgeführt wurde und ob es Probleme oder Konflikte gegeben hat.
Managementsystem Verantwortliche informieren:
- Ist dieses Häkchen gesetzt, werden zusätzlich zum Verantwortlichen des Workflowplans auch die Verantwortlichen des Managementsystems per E-Mail über den bevorstehenden bzw. den durchgeführten Workflow informiert.
Nächste Durchführung:
- Legen Sie hier fest, wann der Workflowplan das nächste Mal auslösen soll. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt werden dann auf Basis der verknüpften Schutzbedarfsanalysen neue Schutzbedarfsanalysen als Self Assessment angelegt und zur Beantwortung an die Interviewpartner geschickt.
Wiederkehrender Workflow:
- Wenn der Workflowplan regelmäßig auslösen soll, kann dies hier eingestellt werden.
Durchgeführte Workflows
Dieser Tab zeigt alle vergangenen Workflows des Plans an, die bereits durchgeführt worden sind. Hier wird dargestellt, ob der Workflow funktioniert hat oder fehlgeschlagen ist und was etwaige Probleme waren.

Schutzbedarfsanalysen
Dieser Tab zeigt alle verknüpften Schutzbedarfsanalysen. Dies umfasst die Schutzbedarfsanalysen, die als Vorlage gedient haben, sowie auch die daraus erstellten neuen Schutzbedarfsanalysen. An dieser Stelle können einzelne Schutzbedarfsanalysen im Workflowplan pausiert oder wieder aktiviert werden. Für einzelne Schutzbedarfsanalysen kann manuell sofort eine Neubewertung ausgelöst werden. Pausierte Schutzbedarfsanalyse setzen einen Zyklus aus, sind danach aber wieder aktiv. Wenn es Probleme oder Konflikte mit einer Schutzbedarfsanalyse gibt, wird dies hier ebenfalls dargestellt.

Gelbe Warndreiecke: Besteht ein Konflikt innerhalb der Schutzbedarfsanalyse selbst, wird dies mit einem gelben Warndreieck dargestellt. Details zum Konflikt finden sich im Tooltip, wenn man mit der Maus über dem Dreieck hovert. Beispiel: die Überprüfung ist nicht im Status abgeschlossen oder sie hat keinen Interviewpartner hinterlegt.
Rote Warndreiecke: Besteht ein Konflikt mit einer anderen Schutzbedarfsanalyse im selben oder einem anderen Managementsystem, wird dies mit einem roten Warndreieck dargestellt. Details zum Konflikt finden sich im Tooltip, wenn man mit der Maus über dem Dreieck hovert. Zusätzlich wird ein Link zur konfliktierenden SBA angeboten. Beispiel: es gibt eine Schutzbedarfsanalyse mit einem jüngeren Startdatum für die selben Ressourcen/Datenkategorien.
Workflowplan FAQs
Was passiert bei der Durchführung des Workflowplans?
Wenn der Workflowplan durchgeführt wird, werden für die verknüpften Schutzbedarfsanalysen Neubewertungen erstellt und die jeweiligen Interviewpartner zur Beantwortung aufgefordert. Eine Neubewertung bewertet dieselben Ressourcen und Datenkategorien für die selbe Organisationseinheit oder den selben Prozess wie die ursprüngliche Schutzbedarfsanalyse.
Wann wird keine Neubewertung angefordert?
Es wird keine Neubewertung erstellt und angefordert, wenn eine der folgenden Bedingungen zutrifft:
- Die Neubewertung der Schutzbedarfsanalyse ist pausiert.
- Die Schutzbedarfsanalyse ist nicht abgeschlossen.
- Die Schutzbedarfsanalyse hat keine Interviewpartner.
- Es existiert bereits eine andere Schutzbedarfsanalyse für dieselbe Organisationseinheit oder denselben Prozess, die:
- noch nicht abgeschlossen ist, oder
- bereits abgeschlossen wurde, aber ein neueres Startdatum hat und zumindest eine gleiche Ressource oder Datenkategorie bewertet.
Achtung: Der letzte Fall ist besonders relevant, wenn Sie mehrere Managementsysteme betreiben. Falls Sie eine Schutzbedarfsanalyse per Workflow geplant haben, aber ein Kollege in einem anderen Managementsystem eine andere Schutzbedarfsanalyse anlegt, die dieselben Bedingungen erfüllt, wird die neue Schutzbedarfsanalyse den Workflow blockieren.
Was passiert mit pausierten Schutzbedarfsanalysen?
Wenn eine Schutzbedarfsanalyse pausiert wurde, wird bei der nächsten Durchführung keine Neubewertung erstellt. Stattdessen wird die Schutzbedarfsanalyse für die darauffolgende Durchführung wieder aktiviert.
Tips, tricks & best practice

Relationships in the structural analysis generally lead to the highest protection need. These dependences can be reduced with a protection needs analysis. One should therefore start with the analysis of those assets/resources/services that are most important to the organization and evaluate them regarding the requirements of the management system first.
