Compliance Tools

A common need in the regulatory compliance environment is to ensure adequate data security over computerized assets.  Totally Compliant has arranged to resell and integrate several best-in-class solutions that support data security and disaster recovery compliance.

Policy Management System

The Command Center™ product from META Security Group is a comprehensive tool that provides a policy structure, a set of Standards to implement policy, and can refer to Technical Procedures specific to individual technologies or platforms.  It also provides a way to ensure that policies are read and agreed-to within an organization. 

It has a Vulnerability Management module which allows that tracking in a real-time basis of specific system vulnerabilities that would affect the technologies that exist within an organization.  Emerging vulnerabilities are matched to installed component profiles and appropriate notification and patch delivery takes place.  The Policy Management page fully describes the capabilities of Command Center™

Simply Scan

Simply Scan provides a hosted disaster recovery solution for data.  Through a simple browser interface, it allows the scanning or sending of critical/sensitive data to an off-site, secure location for later retrieval and use.  It provides access security to that data, and ensures it is always stored encrypted, so that the hosting site cannot ever read or access the data.

Simply-Scan is a powerful web hosted application.  Using robust data centers for application hosting along with industry-leading file storage technology and encryption, Simply-Scan delivers performance and security.  There's no capital expense, no server hardware or software, no installation, no long connect times and no maintenance.  When you put Simply-Scan to work, you'll have access to your documents 24 hours a day, 7 days a week from ANY web-connected device, allowing you to store, manage and share files securely over the Internet.  All you need is the Internet and a web browser.

Administration of Simply-Scan is a breeze.  You simply create your account, authorize individual users and groups of users, and define the levels of access to folders and documents.  Users will find it quick and easy to create cabinets and folders and start storing, managing and sharing files using Simply-Scan.  The interface follows common desktop conventions for exploring and managing files, making adding or deleting files and other functions as easy as pointing and clicking.  Users of Simply-Scan can easily locate files using its powerful search capabilities.  Viewing and printing of files is equally straight-forward because Simply-Scan supports an unlimited amount of file formats and provides numerous output options. 

Automated Business Impact Analysis

The Automated Business Impact Analysis is a web-based questionnaire which can prioritize business processes or computer applications for criticality.  It is used to codify the requirements for disaster recovery or security, and provides a consistent process to determine priority.

The product is a web-based tool to guide and document a Business Impact Analysis, which is a standard approach toward prioritizing computer, network and application systems preparatory to planning for business continuity or disaster recovery.  In a typical situation, a questionnaire is devised, usually with the help of outside consultants, and then a team comprised of business users and computer specialists will answer, weight and score the results.  The resultant scores are then arrayed in order or are pointed to coded priority rankings that determine the recovery priority in case of disaster.  The process provides an objective focus to deal with the realities that immediate disaster recovery of all resources is impossibly costly and not realistic. 

The user is presented with a web-form questionnaire, in which he or she is asked to define the application or system, provide some basic data about who “owns” it, who supports it, where it is processed and what systems feed it as well as are dependent on it.  Then a series of questions are asked, with drop down or fill in the blank answers.  The questions are grouped into categories, such as Operational Impact, Financial Impact, Regulatory Impact, etc.  The focus is to determine the impact if the particular application or system were not available for a defined period of time.  The answers may get into quantitative detail, as “what is the loss of revenue per day?”, which require a business knowledge of the purpose and use of the application.  Therefore, usually the questions are answered by teams of people, or are shipped back and forth by email, to solicit the most appropriate answer to difficult questions.

Once answered, the questions are then automatically analyzed and scored.  All the scores in a particular category are totaled.  The results are “normalized” against a rating system that is tailored to each organization, based on parameters put in place during the installation/setup phase.
