Some companies will likely take on additional IT staff to help cope with the added burden of performing cybersecurity compliance services.
For some, accelerating IT projects that support compliance goals can be the key to staying ahead. Whatever your approach, Certified NETS is here to help you meet these demands effectively.

Cybersecurity Compliance Regulations
Among the regulations having the biggest impact on companies and their IT organizations are:
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which requires all public companies to back up financial statements with proof of the procedures and controls in place
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which provides cybersecurity frameworks to help organizations protect sensitive data and strengthen overall security.
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which requires organizations to protect the personal data and privacy of EU citizens.
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which mandates public companies to secure financial data and prevent unauthorized access.
Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), which enforces data security rules for securities firms to protect customer information.
Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), which helps organizations reduce vulnerabilities and strengthen cybersecurity infrastructure.
Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC), which requires U.S. Department of Defense contractors to meet defined cybersecurity standards.
Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), which mandates strict security measures for organizations handling credit card transactions.
Compliance with these federal regulations is reminding some people of another, recent event that led to a surge in IT activity and spending: Y2K. This time, however, there's no "end-time" for the event; compliance is something that must continue as long as the laws are in effect.
Why Regulatory Compliance Matters
Demonstrating accountability to shareholders, employees, customers, and partners is no longer just good business, it's the law. Implementing new regulatory requirements is frequently complex, confusing and time-consuming. Much of the compliance with new security and privacy regulations falls squarely on IT departments.
