A critical component of the FedRAMP framework is its adherence to cryptographic standards, specifically the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-3. Data privacy is essential to compliance, and the National Institute of Standards and Technology has clearly defined the requirements for just how a FedRAMP-compliance organization encrypts its data.
This article will cover those requirements and how to approach them in your organization.
SOC 2 compliance is a crucial standard for organizations that handle sensitive customer data, particularly cloud service providers and SaaS businesses. However, achieving and maintaining SOC 2 compliance is no small feat. The traditional audit process can be time-consuming, complex, and expensive, requiring extensive documentation, evidence collection, and control monitoring.
Automation revolutionizes compliance by reducing human error, streamlining audits, and ensuring continuous security monitoring. Organizations that leverage automation tools can minimize audit preparation time, improve security posture, and demonstrate compliance more efficiently.
For years, quantum computers have been seen as science fiction. But now, with researchers making rapid leaps in practical design and implementation, publications like Gartner predict that this new technology may render traditional cryptography ineffective by 2029.
This article delves into how quantum computing is shaping the future, focusing on its implications for compliance and security based on insights from Gartner and Palo Alto Networks.
