COMPLIANCE PROGRAMS

Provable Compliance, Not Just Good Intentions

Compliance is not a checkbox. It is a documented program you can stand behind when a regulator, auditor, or insurer asks for proof.

We build and manage that program for you: written policies, trained staff, evidence you can produce on demand, and a plan for the day something goes wrong. A dedicated virtual CISO keeps it all aligned with your goals and reports on progress in plain language.

Not sure which rules apply to you? We help you identify your obligations during discovery.

How It Works

A Program That Never Goes Stale

Compliance is not a one-time project. Your program runs on a continuous cycle that keeps it current as your organization and the rules change.

Ready for Your Cyber Insurance Renewal

Cyber insurers now ask detailed questions before they write or renew a policy, and the wrong answer can mean higher premiums or a denied claim.

We map your environment against the controls underwriters most commonly ask about, close the gaps, and keep the documentation ready so you can answer the questionnaire with confidence.

FAQ

Compliance Questions

Straight answers about compliance programs.

Does my organization need a compliance program?

It depends on the data you handle. Healthcare organizations and their business associates fall under HIPAA, businesses that accept card payments fall under PCI DSS, and financial and tax firms fall under the FTC Safeguards Rule. We help you identify your obligations during discovery.

Can you guarantee we will pass an audit?

No one can honestly guarantee an audit result. What we do is build the program, document your safeguards, collect evidence continuously, and support you through the audit, so you walk in prepared instead of scrambling.

Will this help with our cyber insurance?

Yes. Most cyber insurers ask about multi-factor login, endpoint detection, backups, training, and incident response before they write or renew a policy. We help you put those controls in place and keep the documentation ready for your questionnaire. Coverage and premiums are always decided by your insurer.

Are you a law firm?

No. CyberCore is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. We handle the security, documentation, and evidence side of compliance and work alongside your attorney when legal questions come up.

Which plans include a compliance program?

The Compliance plan includes a compliance management program for your applicable framework and HIPAA training for HIPAA-covered clients. On Advanced, a compliance program is available as an add-on. On Essential, HIPAA security awareness training is available as an add-on. Compare all plans.

Can you manage more than one framework?

Yes. Many organizations need more than one, such as HIPAA and PCI DSS for a practice that takes card payments. Each program is scoped in your written quote, with a discount when two or more frameworks are managed together.

How is this different from a virtual CISO?

A compliance program documents and maintains the safeguards a framework requires. A virtual CISO provides ongoing security leadership, including your roadmap, architecture review, and board-level reporting. The Compliance plan includes both.
