Regulatory Compliance Standards

PCI

Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard

There are twelve security requirements mandated by PCI, of which several relate directly to security and log management - including the troublesome PCI sections 10, 11.4, 12.9 and 12.10. NitroSecurity provides both log management, analysis, data monitoring and intrusion prevention solutions that cover nearly every aspect of PCI compliance—more in-depth PCI compliance coverage than any other solution.

FISMA

Federal Information Security Management Act

FISMA requires each federal agency to develop, document, and implement an agency-wide program to provide security for the information and information systems that support the operations and assets of the agency, including those provided or managed by another agency, contractor, or other source. NitroSecurity provides a solution for many areas of FISMA, including AC, AU, SC, IR and SI requirements.

SOX

Sarbanes-Oxley Act

SOX focuses on 'internal controls' requirements, and most of what is required is non-technical. However, two of the SOX requirements - the requirements in SOX rule 302 and 404 - are aligned with a company's reporting structure. Although rules 302 and 404 mainly focus on financial reporting, a migration towards IT and security reporting is occurring as new internal controls procedures are being implemented. NitroSecurity offers log and event auditing and reporting to assist in these aspects of SOX compliance.

HIPAA

Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act

Compliance requirements under HIPAA are diverse, and include organizational, procedural and security standards. The Security Rule or Security Standards and Technical Safeguards is included in the Security Standards for the protection of Electronic Protected Health Information provision.
