Report IT security-relevant events

What is the reporting and information portal?

The Reporting and Information Portal (MIP) enables companies and government agencies to register with the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) and the Federal Office for Civil Protection and Disaster Assistance (BBK) and to submit reports. The BSI and BBK support the reporting party within the scope of their legal responsibilities and use the reports to compile anonymized situation reports, which are made available via the MIP and other communication channels.

How can I submit a report?

This depends on whether you wish to file a report and which legal requirement applies. For certain reporting offices, you can file a report without prior registration by selecting the "Submit Report" menu item. Other reporting offices require that you have completed registration in the MIP. The "Overview of Reporting Offices" page explains which offices these are and provides further information on the legal requirements.

How can I register?

You can create a user account by clicking the “Registration” link. You will then receive an email containing a link to activate your registration. Once activated, you will have access to the MIP and can create your institution. Alternatively, you can obtain a join link from a member of an existing institution to join that institution. You can then submit a registration application for the institution to a registration office. Depending on the registration authority, the application will be reviewed by the BSI or BBK and accepted based on the review results. Further details about the MIP can be found in the user guide.
