During the event held in Chicago next week, the leader in IT governance, risk management and compliance solutions will show its multi-regulatory compliance tool
February 26, 2008 - New York - Modulo, an industry-leading provider of IT Governance, Risk and Compliance solutions, will participate in Gartner Compliance & Risk Management Summit 2008, which will occur next week, from March 3rd to 5th in Chicago, Illinois.
The company will introduce MetaFramework, a Multi-Regulatory Compliance solution to meet mandates and guidelines such as SOX, PCI, FISMA, ISO 27002 (17799), ISO 27001, HIPAA, NERC CIP, COBIT, DIACAP, A130 and FISAP.
Based on Modulo’s experience in developing tools for risk management , governance and compliance, MetaFramework is composed by a group of requirements that are already registered in the system and have the capability to evaluate controls and store evidences.
All the information is automatically organized and allows the company to analyze its risks and identify the level of compliance according to the database frameworks, among other features.
By using Modulo MetaFramework, the organization is able to execute audit processes efficiently and with lower costs, manage the security requirements (eliminating redundant costs and unnecessary controls) and obey laws, regulations and other current patterns.
“The security department must understand and meet those requirements, identifying the ones that will be implemented, and provide the conditions to reach compliance” says Alvaro Lima, Modulo’s co-founder. Nowadays the main challenge is to find a solution for each requirement and demonstrate compliance, once both procedures are necessary to audit processes.
Despite this diversity, frequently the security controls are the same. “The CSO needs to know the laws and regulations to find the best compliance practices in order to implement the controls and register the evidences that demonstrate compliance. This process creates a group of results very difficult to manage. Modulo developed a solution that helps companies to deal with all this procedures just once”, says Mr. Lima.
