Vigil introduces free Audits to help meet compliance laws 
(19/03/2010)
Legal liability and regulatory compliance means companies are tasked with ensuring data breaches do not occur. In particular the public and private sectors are faced with increasingly complex legislation such as Government Connect Secure Extranet (GCSX), Government Protective Marking Scheme (GPMS) and GPG 13 (Good Practice Guide 13), Freedom of Information act, Data Protection Act, which adds further impetus for strengthening policies.
Vigil has announced the launch of a new ‘Free Compliance Audit’. Vigil has introduced the Free Compliance Audit to help address ongoing legislation issues and ensure a comprehensive review of organisations adherence to regulatory guidelines.
Vigil will work in conjunction with its channel partners on the ‘Free Compliance Audit’ to understand business requirements, identify discrepancies and propose solutions to issues such as the GCSx Code of Connection (CoCo 4.1) compliance which has a deadline of March 31st that many authorities must meet.
Alex Teh, Director at Vigil comments, “New requirements and regulations such as GCSx 4.1 place increased pressure on those in charge of security, obligating customers to adhere to regulatory frameworks. Our technical resources and knowledge along with our vast understanding of the security market, enables us to establish exactly what our customers need to do to meet these regulatory requirements and propose suitable recommendations and solutions”.
