Here’s how CMIT Boston, Newton, Waltham helps businesses with data governance and regulatory compliance:
Compliance means more than just ticking a box. Consider it the foundation for a successful business.
HIPAA compliance is a long, winding road for healthcare providers and the businesses and contractors they work with. Whether you are a covered entity or a business associate, CMIT Solutions can help.
The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is required for contractors working with the Department of Defense. CMIT Solutions helps companies prepare for a CMMC audit by performing a preliminary risk assessment and providing an action plan to close the gaps needed to achieve compliance.
CMIT Solutions works within the cybersecurity framework of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which requires businesses to Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover in the face of data threats. This includes security awareness training and Security Incident and Event Monitoring (SIEM).
The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) regulates the sharing of information and the transparency of transactions conducted by banking, accounting, and tax professionals.
If your business accepts major credit cards as payment, you’re required to comply with the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard. This was established in 2004 to improve protection for card issuers by ensuring that merchants meet minimum standards for the storage, processing, and transmission of cardholder data.
The European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), enacted in 2018, standardizes data privacy laws while increasing the transparency with which organizations approach this hot-button issue. GDPR has had ripple effects across the globe as its standards are adopted by other governments and regulatory bodies.
Effective cybersecurity requires a proactive approach. This includes penetration testing, which simulates a cyberattack against your organization. It allows an IT partner like CMIT Solutions to identify and repair vulnerabilities before a hacker does, as well as support compliance with data privacy and security regulations.
Once your business understands the regulatory requirements imposed on it,
you can take meaningful action to defend your data, empower your employees,
and shield your systems from cybercriminals—increasing your business
reputation and overall cybersecurity in the process.
IT compliance means adhering to relevant rules, regulations, and standards (e.g. HIPAA, PCI, GDPR, CMMC) by implementing proper security, documentation, controls, and audits.
We assist with frameworks such as HIPAA, PCI DSS, GDPR, CMMC, SOX, NIST, and industry-specific compliance requirements depending on your sector.
We perform gap assessments, document policies, recommend remediation, assist with evidence collection, and support auditors through the review process.
A gap assessment compares your current IT environment and practices against the requirements of a particular compliance standard, identifying deficiencies and risks to address.
Through monitoring, periodic audits, policy reviews/updates, continuous training, and ensuring changes in your IT setup maintain alignment with compliance requirements.
Compliance is ongoing. Regulations change, systems evolve, and new security risks emerge, so you must continuously maintain and review compliance efforts.
Yes. We assist you in drafting, reviewing, and managing required policies (e.g. access control, incident response, data retention) and documentation that auditors expect.
We implement encryption, access controls, monitoring, data retention policies, anonymization or pseudonymization, and data audit logs to enforce privacy and data security.
A significant one. We deliver security awareness training, compliance training, phishing simulations, and periodic refreshers to ensure staff know their responsibilities.
Simply contact us for an initial assessment. We’ll review your current state, identify which frameworks apply, define a compliance roadmap, and guide you through implementation and monitoring.
