Common Sense Compliance - Comprehensive Compliance Services & Solutions

The words common sense and compliance generally do not go together. But at InfoSekure our secret formula to help organizations achieve sustainable compliance is best described by these words - common sense. Our surfeit of common sense is only exceeded by our knowledge, skills and passion for Information Security (InfoSec) and Compliance.

InfoSekure’s experienced industry professionals were evangelizing Information Security and IT controls concepts long before bewildering acronyms like HIPAA, GLBA, SOx, PCI, et al started becoming part of the daily lexicon of the average business & IT professional. Information Security and Compliance are what InfoSekure’s professionals do best – unraveling the complexities of these complicated terms while translating them into simple actionable plans that will get your organization racing on the path to compliance.

InfoSekure's professionals understand that compliance and Information Security are but means to an end. While compliance is a regulatory requirement, InfoSekure has helped organizations harness the initiative(s) to gain significant efficiencies and cost advantages.

A typical organization could see multiple drivers of compliance. The following table provides a quick reference of the typical compliance drivers encountered by organizations.

As organizations' people and processes are driven in different directions, by different compliance enablers, it becomes important for organizations to manage their compliance process more efficiently. This calls for organizations to work smarter. InfoSekure has a suite of solutions to help organizations work more intelligently to accomplish their organizational and compliance objectives.

Some of InfoSekure's innovative service and technology solutions are:

Controls Automation: Manual controls are expensive and difficult to maintain & reproduce. Automating controls makes it easier for organizations to achieve predictable results. However the trigger event for automating controls may lie hidden in another part of the organization. InfoSekure helps you uncover such trigger events wherever they are in your organization and helps you harness the power of automated controls to achieve your control objectives and compliance requirements.

Workflow Engine: Organizations need to be flexible in their approach. Auditors expect control activities to have predictable outcomes. So when you take an flexible organization and apply a standard control framework, chaos reigns. A Workflow Engine enables the stakeholders of your organizations know very succinctly what's expected of them from the perspective of your controls' framework, so that they can focus on being flexible and adaptable in the other areas of your organization.

Audit Automation: The Workflow Engine can also be easily deployed to automate your auditing process, thereby ensuring that all artifacts necessary for the audit process is securely and readily available online, saving you time and money. Auditors can also access reports and other evidences from anywhere, thereby making audits less intrusive on your people and saving you time and money.

Central Controls Monitor: By the time organizations understand and realize that their controls are not working as designed, its too late. Most organizations uncover problems with their processes only at the time of audit, thereby making audits mostly a post facto analysis of what went wrong. The patented Central Controls Monitor solution from InfoSekure ensures that organizations obtain a real time understanding of how their controls are working, making it easier to fix problems as they occur. The monitoring solutions also becomes a control by itself, providing the essential detective and/or mitigating controls necessary for auditors to be reassured that problems with your control framework are detected, investigated and corrected as and when they do occur.

Compliance Integration: Most organizations are subject to multiple compliance drivers. Often times the control activities needed to achieve compliance is installed and tested by different teams at different schedules. Most organizations therefore have a organic evolution of control activities that tends to border on confusion and chaos. Unraveling the complexities of which control activities are for which particular compliance driver and producing the appropriate documentation for audits becomes complex and messy. Merely integrating the control framework may not be a solution as providing the entire universe of control activities for each of the compliance drivers may result in testing of unnecessary controls (for instance, SOx controls being tested by your HIPAA auditor, etc.). The Compliance Integration solution from InfoSekure ensures that while your internal organization follows an integrated controls framework, eliminating confusion, a reporting engine ensures that your internal and external auditors only get to see the appropriate controls that are being tested for the particular compliance activity.

All of InfoSekure’s professionals are adequately certified with one or more of the following certifications: CISA, CISM, CISSP, etc. While Information Security and Auditing is a core skill of all of InfoSekure’s professionals, many have complementary skills/degrees like Six Sigma, MBA, PMI etc. to ensure the right mix of technical and business skills. It is because of this excellent combination of focused, yet diverse skills and experiences that InfoSekure can offer unparalleled value addition at any stage of the compliance life cycle.
