Using a Compliance Accelerator to Satisfy Regulatory Compliance and Privacy Requirements

Our Compliance Accelerators are packaged services that guide organizations through governance and compliance, areas that are often daunting to businesses. After building an Information Governance Strategy and identifying sensitive data and risks in your organization, the third Accelerator is to help you satisfy regulatory compliance and privacy requirements. We leverage industry guidance and best practices to develop a regulatory compliance plan for your environment that includes privacy at its core and is aligned to Zero-Trust Security Principles, the strongest security model available. Here's what our Compliance Accelerator for Satisfying Regulatory Compliance and Privacy Requirements looks like.

Regulatory Compliance and Privacy Assessment Objectives

These are the things you can expect out of this Compliance Accelerator:

• An understanding of your regulatory compliance needs: We'll walk you through the regulations that apply to your specific business and industry, explaining what each standard is for and how it relates to your role in the workforce. Not only will we make sure you're up to date on current regulations, but we'll give you all the details on new ones that are coming soon, so that you'll be ahead of the game and won't be hit with any surprises.
• Knowledge and increased understanding of your privacy risk: Having identified your particular risks in regard to private customer and employee information that your company handles, we will further explain the nature of these risks, such as data breaches or consequences for non-compliance with regulations.
• Compliance assessments: We will run continued assessments to see your Compliance Score and go through it with you to ensure that you meet the requirements that you need to.
• Analysis and recommendations: We'll take a deeper look at your compliance assessments and determine what the best steps are to raise your Compliance Score and satisfy your requirements in the most beneficial and secure ways.
• Prioritization/adaptation of your Information Governance Strategy: With our updated information, we'll look back at your Information Governance Strategy and build in any additional recommendations that need to be added. We'll go through the strategy with you to prioritize and plan in order to follow the strategy we've laid out.

Meeting You Where You Are

Our Compliance Accelerators are designed to follow one another, so the work we do in this one builds on and refers back to the previous two. But if you've already established a plan and identified your sensitive information and just need help making sure you're satisfying your regulatory compliance and privacy requirements, we're more than happy to pick up and start with this accelerator. This is the one that addresses compliance regulations themselves most directly, an area that many companies could use guidance in. Wherever you currently are on your compliance path, we can help you choose the solutions that are the most time- and cost-effective.
