A buyer-focused checklist of the security, privacy, and workflow requirements professional-services firms in EMEA should use to evaluate a GDPR-compliant secure client portal.
A GDPR-ready client portal for EMEA has to evidence residency, encryption, access control, retention, and a trail, not just claim compliance. This checklist gives the requirements to verify, with Alkmist as one ISO 27001, EU-hosted option.
For EMEA firms, a client portal is a data-processing decision as much as a workflow one. GDPR alignment has to be evidenced, not assumed.
This checklist covers the security, privacy, and workflow requirements to confirm before you buy.
Verify each item with evidence, not claims.
Data stored in the EU under EU control, confirmed in writing.
In transit and at rest, with current standards.
Least-privilege roles and revocable, expiring access.
ISO 27001 certificate with a relevant scope.
A DPA covering GDPR roles and sub-processors.
Clear retention and a real deletion path.
An immutable log of access and actions.
The workflow that makes the portal worth adopting.
