Security Standards Certification

Information security management encompasses many areas - from perimeter protection and encryption to application security and disaster recovery. IT security is made more challenging by compliance regulations, such as HIPAA, PCI DSS, Sarbanes-Oxley and global standards, such as ISOs and GDPR. This is where IT security compliance services can be helpful. Knowledge of regulations, standards and frameworks are essential for all businesses. Compliance with these frameworks and standards is important from an audit perspective. Standards are like a recipe; they list out steps that must be performed. A well-managed IT organization must employ the security compliance services, to comply with requirements set forth in a standard. Regulations, in contrast, have a legal binding impact. The way they describe how something should be performed indicates government and public support for the rules and processes set forth in the regulation. Failure to comply with IT-focused regulations can result in financial penalties and litigation. Regulatory compliance isn’t always easy to understand, but companies that provide security compliance services can work with you to help maintain adherence to applicable standards, codes, regulations, and laws.
