What is the D-Mark Certificate?

The world's first certification scheme for digital responsibility is now on the streets and several companies have already been certified. The D-label, which Industriens Fond together with Dansk Industri, Dansk Erhverv, SMVdanmark and Forbrugerrådet Tænk are behind, must make IT security and responsible data use a strong position for Danish companies.

The D-mark is Denmark's new labeling scheme for IT security and responsible data usage. It promotes digital trust among customers and consumers and encourages digital responsibility among businesses.

In this way, the D-label helps to prevent a potential digital crisis of confidence between the population, companies and authorities.
