Compliance

nCipher data protection solutions help organizations to meet specific aspects of complying with various regulations and guidelines such as the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard, Sarbanes Oxley Act, HIPAA, Gramm Leach Bliley, the European Union Data Protection Directive and others.

Compliance requires a data-centric approach

Privacy regulation is forcing organizations to re-examine their security controls for critical or classified data.  A range of industry guidelines and legislative mandates require a more data-centric security approach, focused on maintaining data confidentiality and integrity inside and outside the traditional enterprise security perimeter. Techniques such as encryption and the digital signing of electronic documents are increasingly identified as specific measures to raise confidence and establish non-repudiation.

nCipher has worked closely with some of our most security conscious customers who are often ahead of the ‘compliance curve’ and can help your organization face the often bewildering and constantly evolving compliance environment.
