Security Compliance Solutions

FIPS & NIST Standards

The need for compliance regulations is driven by the need to guard personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, detection, and transmission.  Britestream’s award-winning data privacy technology provides a secure, scalable and simple SSL hardware solution to processing SSL-encrypted network traffic, designed to protect both application systems and information as it passes through networks and the internet.

Government regulations and industry doctrines frequently require businesses take extra steps to secure information.  Here are a few examples where compliances are driving companies to adopt increased security policies:

The Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard adopted a standard based on the Visa Cardholder Information Security Program (CISP), its sister program the Visa Account Information Security program (AIS), MasterCard Site Data Protection (SDP), American Express Security Operating Policy (DSOP), Discover Information Security and Compliance (DISC), and JCB security standards outlining best practices for security credit card data that is stored, processed or transmitted, wherever the data is located.

Healthcare providers are regulated by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), which guards against the misuse of personally identifiable health information and limits the sharing of that information. 

Insurance policies, particularly business liability policies, may require specific steps for ensuring the security of data.

Demand for secure On-line Banking continues to pose numerous security and data privacy challenges.  Driven by increasing end user concern and a rising number of threats, the banking industry works to comply with government and industry imposed guidelines to protect this ideal target from hackers and theft.  Britestream partners with Check Point to deliver scalable, secure, and simple solutions.

As business-to-business communications increasingly leverage the convenience of network technology, special agreements defining terms of service agreements requiring the security of data are becoming a standard business practice.

Britestream partners with Microsoft, IBM and CheckPoint to deliver secure solutions designed to plug right into your application server to secure online banking, personal identity information, business-related communications, personnel data, and much more.
