Compliance Hosting & Managed Service Provider in USA

COMPLIANCE

It takes tenacity to keep a network safe, secure and compliant

Depending on the nature and purpose of your business and the technologies employed to manage that business, maintaining compliance with a host of ever-changing legal requirements and specifications is a true minefield of potential business threats.

A change in a router. The opening of ports in a firewall. Installing a new application. A change in ACL. A failure to upgrade software or firmware. Seemingly simple activities may have a cascading effect on both your security and your compliance requirements.

Technology is amazing, but left on its own, it can run out of control. Our experts make the difference. People with the knowledge and expertise to know exactly what your business needs to maintain its compliance. People committed to doing everything it takes to keep your network running no matter what. It takes tenacity to stay on top of technology. It takes Global IP Networks.

SSAE 16 SOC 2 TYPE II
The SSAE-16 SOC-2 Type 2 report on controls is used to assess compliance and identify critical oversights for evaluating the Security, Availability, Processing Integrity and Confidentiality (Privacy) at a service organization.
A variety of users and stakeholders—from customers to business partners to directors—use these reports to evaluate and understand internal controls at a service organization. Reports are conducted based on criteria outlined in the AICPA Guide: Reporting on Controls at Service Organizations Relevant to Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, or Privacy, and can be used to inform affiliates with a broad understanding of internal operations such as:

Oversight of the organization
Vendor management program
Internal corporate governance and risk management processes
Regulatory oversight

Global IP Networks has been audited for both Type 1 (suitability of the design of controls) and Type 2 (the operating effectiveness of those controls) and declared compliant for SAS-70 and SOC-2 audit since 2009.

PCI – Payment Card Industry
Data security standards matter—no matter the size of your operation. If you accept credit card payments, you must protect cardholder data.
In 2005, the Payment Card Industry Council created the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard—a requirement of all five major credit companies—including American Express, Discover Financial Services, JCB International, Mastercard Worldwide and Visa.
The more transactions a merchant completes a year, the more checks and audits are needed to remain in compliance. When transmitting credit card data merchants and stores must, at minimum, implement the following:

Employ Approved Scanning Vendors (ASVs) to assess website and server vulnerability
Perform security audits
Complete self-assessment questionnaires (SAQs)

PCI standards fall into six overarching categories with a total of 12 PCI DDS requirements to remain compliant.

Build and Maintain a Secure Network

Requirement 1 – Install and maintain a firewall.
Requirement 2- – Do not use vendor-supplied defaults for system passwords or other security parameters.

Protect Cardholder Data

Requirement 3 – Protect stored cardholder data.
Requirement 4- – Encrypt transmission or cardholder data across public networks.

Maintain a Vulnerability Management Program

Requirement 5 – Protect all systems against malware and regularly update anti-virus programs.

Implement Strong Access Control Measures

Requirement 7 – Restrict access to cardholder data by business need-to know.
Requirement 8 – Identify and authenticate access to system components.

HIPAA – HEALTH INSURANCE PORTABILITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY ACT

Covered entities (CEs) and business associates (BAs) with access to patient information such as treatments or payments are mandated to remain compliant with HIPAA, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996.

Both the HIPAA Privacy Rule and HIPAA Security Rule outline national standards to safeguard sensitive patient data and protected health information (PHI). Where the privacy rule applies to the storing and sharing of medical records, the security rule more specifically outlines standards for handling electronic protected health information (ePHI).

HIPAA-compliant hosting providers and HIPAA-compliant data centers must maintain certain administrative, physical and technical safeguards to keep records and personal health information confidential, error-free and protected. Compliance standards set forth by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services outline certain physical and technical protections, which include:

Audit Procedures.

Covers areas including security breaches, and hardware and software tracking procedures.

Physical Security.

Includes expectations for the use of personal health information, secure access to records, and policies for protection and disposal of information. At our Dallas and Plano facilities, we utilize unparalleled quality to ensure all standards are met.
