POLAVIS GmbH Commits to the Highest Security Standards in Healthcare

15. October 2025

POLAVIS GmbH has established itself as a leading company for networking in patient care with innovative software solutions for clinics. The Berlin-based company stands for digitalization in healthcare and relies on customized technologies and efficient and secure processes. The implementation of an information security management system (ISMS) was carried out in cooperation with usd AG.

The protection of sensitive health data as the top priority

Beyond the demands and wishes of customers and partners, POLAVIS consistently focuses on the highest security and quality standards. Securing sensitive health data plays a central role in this - both from a regulatory perspective and as a benchmark for excellent digital solutions. That is why POLAVIS decided to continue conducting independent security audits based on proven industry standards in order to further optimize its own existing protective measures.

Working together towards a certification-ready ISMS and beyond

In collaboration with usd, POLAVIS has successfully demonstrated that its existing security measures meet the highest requirements for modern IT security architecture. This confirmation highlights the reliability and integrity of the developed solutions. At the same time, existing ISMS processes have been optimized and further targeted measures for risk management and information security have been established.

However, the commitment to information security does not end there: in addition to the formal certification of the ISMS according to ISO 27001, usd will also support POLAVIS with regular pentests. In doing so, POLAVIS pursues the goal of continuously strengthening its security architecture and ensuring that the company and its solutions maintain the highest level of data protection and security requirements on a long-term basis. usd accompanies POLAVIS reliably on this path.

"In our cooperation, usd AG contributes both the necessary experience and a special commitment to supporting the issues at hand - that's what makes the difference between a service provider and a partner."
