HF3 – Goal 1: Digital development at JLU will be based on powerful IT governance and IT security structures that will be continuously adapted to new requirements.
As a basis for digital transformation, JLU adopted the IT Governance and Security Strategy in 2021. According to this, JLU aims to continue developing and establishing a comprehensive security concept in accordance with ISO 27001 based on proven recommendations for IT baseline protection. The new position of information security officer (ISB, Informationssicherheitsbeauftragte/r) will be responsible for its conceptual planning. Implementing appropriate measures will have an impact on all internal processes and will affect all university departments and service dimensions. This will result in a constant need for measures to raise awareness and ongoing training for JLU members.

Successful digital change requires a holistic transformation of the entire university. Responsibility for driving this change lies with all organizational units. In particular, managers are called upon to actively support all employees in transitioning to a digital workplace. The heterogeneous workforce requires an open culture of communication in which employees with their various skills and backgrounds are supported in a manner specific to each audience. Here, the interest groups play a central role, as does the personnel development department. The latter provides continuously enhanced, audience-oriented programs for developing digital skills.
These and other measures will support cultural change within the administration, which will become a modern, digitized service provider for the entire university. It is essential that all stakeholders be involved in the digital transformation.
