CYBERSECURITY COMPLIANCE

Achieve Cyber Regulatory & Compliance Requirements

As governing and regulatory bodies introduce more stringent compliance requirements, cybersecurity leaders need support to navigate the evolving standards. To anticipate, withstand, and recover from modern threats, you need to go beyond checking the cybersecurity compliance box. eSentire can help you build a resilient cybersecurity program that exceeds the most stringent regulatory mandates and supports in scaling your business, securely.

Build a Comprehensive Cybersecurity Compliance Program That Scales

Stay Ahead of the Changing Cybersecurity Compliance Landscape

Industry, sector and regional mandatory compliance requirements such as GDPR, NIS2, Essentials Eight, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and NYCRR 500 are constantly evolving and often dictate the specific controls, policies, and best practices that organizations should have in place in order to prevent advanced cyberattacks and reduce cyber risk.

However, meeting cybersecurity compliance requirements isn’t a simple task, many cybersecurity teams are challenged by:

  • Scoping where certain compliance mandates apply and making decisions on mitigating and compensating controls
  • Understanding and aligning overlapping cybersecurity compliance and regulatory mandates across multiple regions and industries
  • Demonstrating that a regulatory compliance program is a value-add program that can support, and build cyber resilience and not just a cost center
  • Obtaining buy-in from senior leadership to invest time and resources, especially if specific certifications require audits by multiple external audit bodies
  • Obtaining support and adherence from employees who may see certain controls and activities as an inconvenience

How to Create a Cybersecurity Compliance Program Framework

Adhering to cybersecurity compliance requirements isn’t a one-size fits all model. Based on the region, industry, and maturity of your organization, your team should have a structured approach for each mandate. We recommend using the below framework as a best practice guide when creating a cybersecurity compliance program for your organization:

1

Evaluate your cybersecurity posture against recognized industry standards (e.g., NIST CSF) to understand your current state. Consider conducting a Security Program Maturity Assessment (SPMA) for a gap analysis.

2

Establish which cybersecurity compliance standards and regulatory directives your business must adhere to and what the requirements are for each mandate. Remember, specific compliance standards may be driven by your region or industry, so if your organization operates across multiple regions or industries, your team may need to achieve cybersecurity compliance with multiple mandates. For example, organizations in North America may prefer to follow AICPA Trust Criteria (e.g., SOC2) whereas many EU entities prefer ISO 27001.

3

Identify and assess your organization’s challenges and obligations from a client and regulatory perspective. Based on these requirements, your organization may also need to adhere to a certifiable framework through a third-party certification or independent audit process.

4

Depending on your organization’s size and maturity, you may consider following non-auditable frameworks. We recommend selecting the framework that makes the most sense rather than building a program from scratch.

5

Get buy-in from senior executive leadership and focus on the connections between IT, InfoSec, Legal, and senior organizational leadership as they pertain to any legal or regulatory requirements.

6

Create a roadmap that outlines all the controls, policies, and best practices needed to achieve cybersecurity compliance with a specific mandate, establish a timeline to fulfill the obligations, and identify the internal stakeholders who will take ownership of each stage of the roadmap.

7

As you move toward compliance, conduct annual assessments to ensure you’re keeping up with any changing cybersecurity regulatory compliance requirements.

Cybersecurity Compliance FAQ

What is cybersecurity compliance?

Cybersecurity compliance is adherence to rules, regulations, and standards designed to protect networks, systems, and data from cyberattacks and/or data breaches. Cybersecurity compliance regulations are set by institutions, industry standards, or legal/government entities with a goal of ensuring that organizations take precautions to prevent unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, or destruction of data.

Why is cybersecurity compliance important?

Cybersecurity compliance is important because it sets a standard for organizations to follow to ensure data and systems are protected. It also helps maintain consumer trust by proving that an organization is taking their cybersecurity protection seriously. Finally, non-compliance can lead to penalties and legal actions that can have severe financial consequences and reputational damage.

What are some examples of cybersecurity compliance regulations?

Examples of cybersecurity compliance regulations include the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), NIS2, Essentials Eight, Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), HIPAA, PCI DSS, and NYCRR 500. These compliance regulations are constantly evolving and often dictate the specific controls, policies, and best practices that organizations should have in place to prevent advanced cyberattacks and reduce cyber risk.
