Compliance
Doing the right thing by your customers and insurance providers
Compliance, in a nutshell, is proving you are following the guidelines that those around you require for a continued relationship.
Let's be honest, nobody likes a compliance conversation. It usually starts with a phone call or email and goes like this, "Hello, I'll be sending you a short little form that I need you to fill out. It's no big deal, it just shows that you are doing the normal security things for your organization. I'm sure you are in good shape."
You then receive a form that is pages in length full of technical jargon, cryptic questions, and endless frustration. To make this even more fun, there's usually a tight deadline on returning the form.
CCI Team can come alongside you. We will help you process the request. We will translate the requirements into actionable tasks. Policy writing, cyber security tool deployment, process documentation - we bring a "can do" attitude to these engagements.
Compliance is a part of day to day business. It helps your business run safer. It prepares you to win future contracts easier. We can't tell you it's painless and easy. But, we can assure you it's a good thing for your organization. Seat belts don't improve your enjoyment of riding in a vehicle, yet they are beneficial. Walking through a cyber security risk assessment, compliance verification, or maybe you are wanting to align with a framework (HIPAA, NIST CSF, CIS...) - we will make the process easier.
IT Services Simplified
Most IT service companies have a lot of jargon right here. Words like alignment, strategic, trajectory, leverage, and the list goes on. We won’t do that. Let’s put this in plain words.
You have computers. Your computers need to talk to each other, and the outside world – hence you have a network. Your network needs to work consistently. You need safe internet access. You need equipment that actually functions.
The above paragraph – that's what we work on. We get way too excited about aligning the strategic direction of your company’s technology trajectory in a ... oh wait, sorry. Let’s just say we get really excited about making your technology work, and work well.
How do we do that? One of CCI's themes is "people first, technology second." We are relationship IT providers. If all you want is someone to come in with the technology equivalent of a plunger when something is clogged - that's not us. Instead, we plug into your organization. We invest in learning your environment, your applications, your workflow. To us, it's not a matter of whether something works or not, but whether it's efficient, configured correctly (and securely!) and being utilized appropriately.
“We have everything in the cloud, do we still need help?” Absolutely. Utilizing cloud services is wonderful. But, a poorly setup cloud account exposes you to way more risk, than a configuration mistake on your local network. Let us review, optimize, and secure what you use in the cloud.
