Compliance

Get Compliant with Information Security Laws and Regulations

Any organization that handles sensitive information — whether personal information, critical infrastructure systems, financial information, intellectual property or sensitive government information — is subject to laws and regulations for protecting that information.

The common requirement of HIPAA, Meaningful Use, Massachusetts CMR 17.00, FISMA, GDPR, CIP, PCI DSS or Gramm Leach Bliley is that each organization must select its controls based on a risk assessment and must oversee the effectiveness of those controls using risk management.

HALOCK assists organizations in understanding the laws and regulations that they must follow to protect information, and guides them through compliance via the risk assessment and risk management processes.

We provide compliance services for the following requirements:

• PCI DSS
• HIPAA Security Rule and Meaningful Use
• Massachusetts 201 CMR 17.00 and state breach laws
• Gramm-Leach-Bliley Safeguards Rule
• 23 NYCRR Part 500 (NYDFS)
• NERC CIP
• ISO 27001
• FISMA
• DoCRA
• GDPR
• Many others, including requirements placed on organizations for reducing risks after data breaches occur

HALOCK prepares our clients for risk management by developing their unique criteria for assessing risk and accepting risk. HALOCK  conducts a risk assessment for the client by considering how effective foreseeable threats would be in their environment, and estimating the likelihood and impacts of those threats. When risks evaluate as too high, HALOCK recommends safeguards that evaluate as “reasonable” in the client environment, given their mission, their objectives, and their obligations.

Do you know “reasonable” for your organization?
