US State Law Compliance
Protecting the Sensitive Information of State Residents
With identify theft and cyber attacks on the rise, you’re facing new pressures to protect sensitive information. In fact, more than 45 states have now passed data security laws that apply to companies that do business with residents of those states. These laws are designed to protect residents against identity theft by mandating security practices
such as:
- Implementing an information security program
- Encrypting data
- Notifying customers in the event of a security breach that compromises unencrypted personal information
To protect sensitive information, many states are now required to implement security programs that include capabilities for incident monitoring and alerting, trend reporting, logging, security information management (SIM), and other prudent security controls and practices.
nFX Solutions for Data Security State Laws
To comply with these data security state laws, you need a comprehensive, specific, proactive information security program strategy that leverages solid log management and SIM capabilities. netForensics offers solutions that provide proactive risk assessment and management, real-time incident monitoring and alerting, and on-demand trend reporting. nFX One log management and SIM solutions can support and enable your device, database, and application SIM policies and procedures. When implemented, you can successfully demonstrate that your IT controls support a sound internal control framework that meets the intent of the state data breach notification and encryption laws.
Compliance via Log Management and Correlation
Log management can help you meet your unique state law requirements and validate that proper controls are in place and working properly. Yet typical log management solutions simply collect, store, and report on raw event logs—and usually do it expensively. For real security intelligence that allows you to successfully meet your security and compliance obligations, you need to do more than manage your log data. nFX One solutions add a layer of security intelligence that features patented correlation technology, so you can take your data to the next step and correlate it based on your defined policies and procedures. You can opt for netForensics SIM alone or combined in one affordable solution that also features log management. Both help companies prevent threats and mitigate attacks with integrated incident-handling capabilities and best-practice guidance.
