Compliance

Are you checking all the compliance boxes?

Maintaining compliance is no easy task with what seems like an endless list of boxes to check. Add to that strict data privacy regulations, the last-minute dash to achieve compliance before a looming deadline, strict industry standards and regulations, and the need to demonstrate compliance to stakeholders — and it’s clear why organizations are fighting an uphill battle.

Strict data privacy regulations

Do you have the right processes in place to support data privacy regulations? The boundaries for data privacy are complex and play a key role in your compliance initiatives and public perception of your company.

Last-minute dash for compliance

Is your company facing an audit or deadline to become compliant? Delaying compliance can lead to challenges in implementing the right systems and processes to support your program over the long-term.

Demonstrating compliance to stakeholders

Need a way to demonstrate compliance? Showing stakeholders and regulatory bodies you have a viable and up to date business continuity plan and the ability to carry it out isn’t just important — it’s essential.

Frequently asked questions

Does ShadowHQ come with built-in compliance frameworks or templates?

The platform is easy to navigate and configure, regardless of which data privacy or data protection requirements you’re aligning to. ShadowHQ helps you ensure alignment, especially when it comes to data retention management. The platform helps you determine who has access to data, how long you keep data for, and how and when to scrub data from your system. The platform allows you to retain event reports too, ensuring you maintain records based on regulatory requirements.

How do I generate a report post-event?

You can generate a report on any incident at the click of a button — simply click the download button from the incident briefing screen and your report will be generated in PDF. This is important when fulfilling post-event compliance and insurance requirements. Reports can highlight planning and response processes to demonstrate alignment to regulatory requirements.

How does ShadowHQ support compliance requirements?

Proactively, the platform helps you navigate incident preparedness and response requirements by demonstrating that your organization has planning documents like playbooks, policies and procedures prepared. Reactively, or post-event, the platform helps you generate reports with information you’ll need to navigate compliance requirements and/or future audits. For example, public companies are required to report to the Security Exchange Commission (SEC) within 72 hours of a security incident. ShadowHQ can help you quickly access, generate and submit the information regulators need for your filing.
