What Problem Does ComplianceForge Solve?
Lack of In House Security Experience
Writing security documentation is a skill that many good cybersecurity professionals simple are not proficient at and avoid the task at all cost. Tasking your security analysts and engineers to write comprehensive documentation means you are actively taking them away from protecting and defending your network, which is not a wise use of their time. ComplianceForge offers cybersecurity documentation solutions that can save your organization significant time and money!
Compliance Requirements
Our products are designed with compliance in mind, since they focus on leading security frameworks to address reasonably-expected security requirements, such as NIST 800-53. Our Security, Compliance & Resilience Program (SCRP) and Cybersecurity & Data Protection Program (CDPP) map NIST 800-53 and other leading compliance frameworks so you can clearly see what is required!
Audit Failures
Security documentation does not age gracefully like a fine wine. Outdated documentation leads to gaps that expose organizations to audit failures and system compromises. Our documentation provides mapping to leading security frameworks to show you exactly what is required to both stay secure and compliant. Being editable documentation, you are able to easily maintain it as your needs or technologies change.
