Regulatory Reviews
 

Overview

The recent wave of highly publicised business failures has resulted in calls and indeed specific legal and regulatory actions designed to reduce the likelihood of such events repeating themselves. 

Whilst no legislation or system of controls can ever be considered fool-proof, organisations are taking specific steps to understand the impact on their operations from new regulatory, legislative and other constraints within which they must now operate.

Our Regulatory Review services are designed to help organisations identify weaknesses to their current Information Security Management Systems and/or related practices in comparison with new regulatory and other good practice requirements.  This is a service particularly suited to financial services or healthcare related organisations as well to organisations that hold information that may fall under the scope of protection of information legislation (e.g. the Data Protection Act)
