Regulatory Compliance
When you interact with your customers, they trust you with their personal information. Discover how securing personal information can help you meet industry-specific data security expectations, preserve your business’s reputation, and turn data protection into an other element of your customer engagement strategy.
What is PCI-DSS?
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, or PCI DSS is a set of technical and operational requirements that were created to help prevent credit card fraud, hacking and other security vulnerabilities and threats. PCI DSS is a worldwide standard and any organization processing, storing, or transmitting cardholder data must be compliant.
How to achieve PCI-DSS compliance?
Achieving compliance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard always relates to your organization’s specific circumstances, however the PCI Security Standards Council® suggests businesses to follow this continuous, 3-step process:
- Assess. Identify all cardholder data, create an inventory of IT assets and business processes for payment card processing, and analyze them for vulnerabilities.
- Remediate. Fix vulnerabilities, identify cardholder data which is absolutely necessary and eliminate the storage of the rest.
- Report. Compile and submit required reports to regulators.

What is HIPAA?
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) is a national standard of the United States for protecting sensitive patient data.
The HIPAA Privacy Rule sets standards for dealing with protected health information (PHI), while the HIPAA Security Rule establishes a set of security requirements for protecting certain health data that is held or transferred in electronic form (e-PHI).
If your organization collects, creates, uses, manages, transmits or has access to PHI, then it is considered to be a “covered entity” that is subject to HIPAA.
How to achieve HIPAA Compliance?
Although HIPAA has a level of scalability to allow covered entities to analyze their own needs and implement solutions appropriate for their specific environments, adequate access control, sufficient activity logging and reliable encryption are key elements of HIPAA Compliance.
- Control: restrict access to sensitive health information on the user level.
- Log: log all PHI related activities. Register all access attempts to ePHI and record what is done with that data once it has been accessed. Use these logs for audits and process improvements.
- Safeguard: implement reliable, file-level encryption to mitigate the risk of unauthorized access.
