Protect Your Regulated Data &
Ensure Industry Compliance

IT governance refers to a set of IT practices that align with your business strategies to ensure compliance and security in your respective industry. Businesses today struggle more and more with the IT compliance demands required of them - at a time when regulatory divergence is increasing. GDPR, the CCPA, and more abound. Still, many companies don't know where critical data is housed, if their networks are vulnerable to cyber threats, or if their clients' information is secure. By employing an effective IT governance and compliance strategy,  your organization can easily meet government regulations. Before choosing an IT governance model, you must first determine what exactly it is you need from that model.  Our compliance experts can help determine which model is best for your business, factoring in key elements such as: 

  1. Identify gaps in your current governance model.

  2. Recognize that governance changes will impact employees - so ask for their input.

  3. Set concrete business goals for IT spend, project timelines, upgrades, etc.

  4. Clearly define priorities and responsibilities, document new solutions, and prioritize employee education. 

  5. Ensure continued monitoring and performance optimization for any new solutions.

Cyber insurance can be a great option for companies that are looking to improve their resilience. That said, as ransomware attacks increase and compliance frameworks become more strict, many companies are being refused coverage for failing to meet security standards. Many insurance companies do not pay claims if the covered party fails to maintain a secure environment through a lack of documentation or controls. If your business is looking to pursue cyber insurance, you should work closely with your IT team to meet provider standards. Here are a few pointers:

  1. All information needs to be documented. Whether it's proof of encryption or cybersecurity training, establish a repository for insurance documentation.

  2. Look at all data points. This includes SaaS, PaaS, IaaS, as well as Marketing and Human Resources applications your departments may be using.

  3. Conduct a cybersecurity assessment ahead of renewal or application for coverage. This is a great way to improve your cyber posture and align daily processes with industry best practices.
