Layered Technologies, the web hosting service provider, made it known on Thursday that they had successfully managed to incorporate service-level conformity. The course of action will allow all of its services to pass audits or examinations held by the industry which ascertain performance levels.
Incidentally, this is the first time such a contract has been issued and which in turn allows the company to support Payment Card Industry-Data Security Standard and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. Also known as the Compliance Agreement, the SLA can be bought absolutely free of cost by all Layered Tech clients. Each will be susceptible to a round the clock compliance via full IT control management.
The full throttle examination allows the company to enable complete security of their clients’ compliant system environments, utilize aggressive management controls and facilitate customers with high level skills for fulfilling audit requirements. Additionally, they are also able to satisfy their clientele by providing them optimum security for their critical data, all without violating any industry standards.
In order to ensure each client obtains equal conformity levels, Layered Tech utilizes a mixture of 10 high level security tools, a strong system memory management along with dedicated ITIL-based methods. This enables them to handle a large number of compliance controls that the healthcare and credit card industry need. Besides this, the company also manages approximately 83% of HIPAA and all PCI-DSS IT controls.
“A huge differentiator for Layered Tech is that we leverage our security and compliance expertise to fully manage all of customers’ IT-related security and compliance requirements managed by Layered Tech, so they do not have to spend their time worrying about meeting the very complex industry standards like PCI or regulatory requirements like HIPAA,” said Jeff Reich, Chief Risk Officer at Layered Tech. “Many hosting providers simply offer compliant-ready environments with security tools to enable customers to be compliant, but do not fully manage the environment and all of the compliance controls, leaving it to the customer to manage. In addition, they only support a subset of the compliance controls. However, Layered Tech is committed to helping our customers maintain around-the-clock compliance and pass extensive, industry-regulated audits and tests. Layered Tech stands by its compliance services, and we are so confident in our compliance capabilities that we are expanding our SLA to include this guarantee.”
