IT Governance/Compliance Services
The IT governance and compliance needs of businesses vary widely. For small companies, IT governance often is an informal process for the proper management and maintenance of IT services that support the business. For larger companies and enterprises, IT governance is a framework – a significant set of policies, procedures, and controls that is applied to technology across the organization to enforce corporate standards and assure regulatory compliance.
TCom Networks is a critical partner for your IT governance and compliance needs. We can help identify which framework is best for your needs and assess, create, and maintain these procedures for companies of all sizes, whether yours is a small business or a highly regulated public enterprise.
Crossing your “Ts” and Dotting your “Is”
A governance framework helps you define and enact standards for processes such as disaster recovery, business continuity, online backup, and business resumption processes. There literally are dozens of IT governance frameworks that companies can follow based upon their size, industry, and regulations, including the most common: CoBit, ITiL, and ISO 27001.
Regulatory compliance generally drives which governance framework you need to follow.
The most common compliance standards include:
- Sarbanes-Oxley
- SSAE 16 (Formerly SAS 70)
- HIPAA
- Gramm-Leach-Bliley
- Data Privacy Laws and Regulations
