ISO 27701 certification in Dresden at a glance
Dresden's biotech, digital-health and research organisations work with personal data every day, and study sponsors, hospitals and partners must answer to supervisors for it. The city's life-sciences page includes digital health among its fields. ISO/IEC 27701 adds privacy requirements to an ISO 27001 system, written for both controllers and processors: data inventories, consent and lawful-basis handling, procedures for individuals' requests, retention, transfers and supplier controls. It supports GDPR work without standing in for legal advice, and a single audited reference can replace a pile of customer questionnaires. Sterling adds the privacy layer from its Frankfurt office, and an accredited certification body issues the certificate.

ISO 27701 in Dresden: questions clients ask
How does ISO 27701 help a Dresden digital-health processor?
Sponsors and hospital customers receive one independently audited reference describing how privacy is managed, so audits and questionnaires can focus on specifics. It does not by itself prove legal compliance, and customers may keep their own requirements. Share the certificate and scope statement with them at the start of a project.
Does ISO 27701 require ISO 27001 first in Dresden?
It is built as an extension to an information security management system, so most organisations hold or add ISO 27001 alongside it, often audited together. That reuses risk assessment and governance work. Your certification body can confirm the exact route.
