EnterEdge Compliance Solutions

Enteredge offers a comprehensive suite of consulting and technology services to assist in addressing Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS). 

PCI DSS requires that any organization that accepts, processes, or stores data that contains payment card information to protect the privacy and confidentiality of the data.  This standard applies to everything from retailers and hotels to restaurants and banks. 

Due to the number of breaches in the early to mid 2000’s, the requirements and strictures placed around those companies that engage in credit card transactions and processing have dramatically increased.  Card issuers are enforcing compliance at all levels further increasing the cost of compliance and impacting the bottom line.  Even with these increasing standards, breaches continue primarily because checking a compliance box does not equal security.

 The trend toward more and more breaches only continues: Why?

 Compliance ≠ Security

Meeting generalized compliance standards do not make an organization secure.  The desire to “check a box” and call it a day has lent organizations to view themselves secure only to find out later that they’ve had a breach.  In 2009, a major credit card processor had a network breach that, by their own admission, cost them $140M to clean up and resulted in legal action beginning with over 16 class action lawsuits for negligence.  They were certified as fully compliant with the PCI DSS at the time they were compromised.

Regardless of your company’s size, a lack of security will still make you a target.  If your organization has a breach, your card issuer may require you bring in a QIRA to respond to the incident, costing ten’s or even hundred’s of thousands of dollars in expense.

Our team is well versed in responding to security incidents surrounding attempted and successful large scale credit card theft and brings that knowledge to bear in our efforts to truly secure your organization in an effective, cost-effective and scalable manner.  We don’t just get you compliant, we help you defend against the current threats that simple compliance just doesn’t handle.

With an increasing number of healthcare providers exchanging data, payments, and information on the internet, security concerns have taken a front seat.  Today, being connected to the internet isn’t simply a convenience for healthcare workers, it’s a requirement.  Doctors, nurses, and health care administrative personnel need to be able to communicate and deliver service in a variety of methods on-line.  As a result, health care facilities are more and more at risk to intrusions, reputation damage, legal sanction and other negative consequences of poor security.

With the advent of web based patient care systems the potential risks have grown exponentially.  And while these systems have some security built in, they are still at extreme risk from intruders.  Enteredge can provide your organization with the tools to defend itself in this modern world against internet threats such as information theft and “hack-tivism”.

Most organizations are long on risk and short on security expertise to mitigate them.  We’ve helped the healthcare industry for years resolve issues surrounding protection of bulk data and patient care records, required to be secured by law.  Our team provides a myriad of services and real world incident response expertise to help your organization manage both internal and external threats to information security.  From vulnerability assessments to full blown audits and security policy and practice reviews, we can help you manage, maintain and improve your security posture and limit your exposure to risks in the IT space.  Our compliance services can help you.
