Regulatory and Legal Compliance
Regulatory Technical Control Assessment
Technical controls assessed requirement by requirement against a named statute or regulation, producing findings counsel can rely on with regulators.
What it covers
The engagement in detail
Assessment of an organization's technical and operational controls against the specific requirements of a named statute, regulation, or supervisory expectation, producing a finding-by-finding analysis that counsel can rely on in advising a client or responding to a regulator. The service exists because most regulations are drafted in legal language while the controls that satisfy them are technical, and the translation between the two is where exposure hides.
Who it is for
Designed for law firms, corporate legal departments, and the clients they advise.
