Compliance Management and eDiscovery:
Consulting for the security and protection of your confidential business data
When it comes to the storage and security of sensitive information, such as customer credit card numbers, personal medical records, or corporate financial information, organizations face an ever-increasing responsibility and burden to comply with various regulations, including:
-
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 -- Protects consumer's financial private information
-
HIPAA -- The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996
-
SOX -- The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002
-
PCI: Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data security standard
-
2006 changes to FRCP (Federal Rules for Civil Procedures) rules
A majority of the responsibility for compliance management falls upon the IT staff, particularly when civil cases require detailed data discovery involving mass amounts of distributed files and data. Thus, any litigation, investigation or regulatory compliance review could cripple an organization in the time and discovery costs alone.
Strategic Data Management wants to help you be more proactive about managing your information risk so that you can be sure that you're in compliance with HIPAA, SOX, PCI or any other regulation. We have partnered with two of the industry leaders, Credant and CommVault, to provide best of breed tactics to meet your strategic business needs in these areas.
