Reading-based Omega Systems, a managed service provider for highly regulated businesses, recently launched Smart Comply, a managed IT compliance service to help companies with cybersecurity risk management and regulatory compliance.
Highly regulated businesses include the government and organizations in the financial services, healthcare, manufacturing, and professional services industries.
The service allows companies to see their vulnerabilities, risks, and requirements to aid corporate governance, risk, and compliance. It collaborates with in-house virtual chief information security officers to assist with policy development, gap remediation, operational due diligence, and overall compliance strategy.
“In today’s environment – with escalating cyber threats, IT staffing shortages, and increasing oversight of technology from internal and external stakeholders – companies cannot afford to let compliance fall by the wayside,” Omega Systems CEO Bill Kiritsis said. “Smart Comply is designed to help businesses grapple with these challenges by demonstrating the potential financial and operational risk associated with ineffective compliance management – and giving them a strategic path forward that integrates compliance directly into the IT roadmap.”
The service is intended for businesses seeking to alleviate the compliance burden on their current IT team, fulfill cyber liability insurance requirements, understand the value of their data and how it correlates to risk, and satisfy regulator, investor, client, and other stakeholder demands.
