Security compliance is a set of standards or best practices that ensure that customer data is kept secure and vulnerabilities to cyber attacks are at a minimum. Some areas of security compliance are mandatory, such as GDPR or CCPA, and businesses that aren’t compliant with security standards may be subject to regulatory fines or penalties.
Many areas of security compliance are around meeting best practices. Sometimes customers require proof that businesses meet certain security compliance standards, such as SOC 2 compliance for third-party SaaS providers.
Many of the security compliance frameworks depend upon the kind of assets a company has or the industry the company operates within.
General Security Frameworks that apply broadly across industries include:
Financial and Payments Security Compliance:
Personal privacy and healthcare-related security compliance:
Manufacturing and infrastructure related security compliance:
