DIN stands for 'Deutsches Institut für Normung,' the German Institute for Standardization. In cybersecurity and IT, DIN refers to a set of internationally recognized standards developed to ensure security, compatibility, and quality in technology and information systems. DIN standards can cover areas such as encryption, secure communications, data privacy, and physical security of IT infrastructure. Adhering to DIN standards helps organizations improve their security posture, comply with regulations, and facilitate interoperability between products and systems. DIN standards are widely adopted in Europe and increasingly referenced worldwide.
