Private companies and public administrations, from March 31 2006, have adopted the new "minimum requirements" of security introduced by Legislative Decree 196/2003. Since January 1 2004 the new Data Protection code has become effective, on the basis of which all companies must fulfill a series of security obligations (section 31 of Legislative Decree 196/2003): information systems of every company have to adopt security measures to reduce to a minimum the risks of destruction or loss of personal data, of non authorized access or non authorized treatment that does not conform to the objective of its collection.
To fulfil such obligations each company has to adopt measures to "protect electronic means and data from unlawful data processing operations, unauthorized access and specific software." (Section 34 Legislative Decree no. 196/2003).
