ITS

Compliance Support

Support and oversight of risk assessment activities to identify, and recommend remediation for risks affecting systems and processes, particularly as related to specific compliance frameworks such as PCI DSS and HIPAA.

A security compliance assessment will help determine the gap between your existing control environment and what is required, and subsequently help you implement controls to address these gaps. An example of when a compliance assessment might be needed is if your department processes and stores credit card information. Another example is if your research project involves sensitive data such as export-controlled information or health information.
