Compliance & Regulatory Management Consultation

Where do you actually stand?

You know something is expected of you, a framework, a regulation, a client’s contract requirement and you’re not entirely sure how close you are to meeting it.

Tell us briefly what you’re managing, and we’ll find time to talk it through.

Talk to us about where you stand.

This is for you if you’re:

Building a compliance program for the first time or adding a new framework because a key client, prospect, or contract now requires it and not sure where to start.

Already working from one or more frameworks, but without a clear, current picture of where the gaps are, especially with more than one regulator in play at once (NIST CSF for one relationship, GLBA for another, an auditor asking about SOC 2).

Managing this today through spreadsheets and manual tracking that’s become burdensome, unreliable, and doesn’t scale as the program grows.

To get started we just need some basic information

What The Conversation Covers

The conversation starts with what you’re managing; where your program likely stands, where the real gaps are, and we can discuss what closing them would take. If a platform walkthrough would actually help answer your questions, we’ll do that too, but it follows the conversation, it doesn’t lead it.

If you’re not sure yet which framework applies to your situation, that’s a fine place to start too.

About This Process

Does FortifyData perform the formal audit or certification?

FortifyData supports the underlying control work and helps you prepare; it’s not a substitute for a formal third-party attestation or certification body where one is required.

We’ll be straightforward with you about where that line is for your specific framework.

Then how does this save us time or money?

An assessor’s fee is largely a function of how much of their time your audit takes, and most of that time gets eaten by evidence that’s incomplete, outdated, or scattered across spreadsheets and inboxes.

FortifyData keeps your compliance work organized and current on an ongoing basis, so your evidence is ready when your assessor arrives. Less of their time on the audit typically means less cost and a shorter engagement for you. And if you don’t already have an assessor or consultant, we’re glad to point you toward people in our network we’ve worked with.

What if I don’t know which framework applies to us yet?

That’s a common starting point, not a blocker.

Select “Not sure yet” and we’ll help you work out what actually applies before talking about how to close any gaps.
