Compliance is top of mind for many organizations, from medical companies following HIPAA regulations to retailers enforcing PCI security standards to any company that complies with GDPR.
Following these requirements can be quite challenging. For starters, you need to fully understand each of the different frameworks by analyzing and interpreting their categories and controls. Then, using assessment tools and manual inputs from your organization, you compile a list of all your resources with their configurations and carefully map them to their corresponding compliance framework controls.
Considering that the full process needs to be properly documented, logged, and monitored – we are looking at a very delicate, time-consuming and error-prone process. How can you really make sure you have everything covered? For example, how do you identify all the gaps in your compliance posture? A misconfigured cloud asset could affect your entire compliance posture. You need to integrate, log, and monitor different inputs from various tools, as well as automatically map such an issue to its relevant category within the framework. This is where the Wiz and RegScale joint solution could help. A lot.
