Security Regulation Compliance

Information security requirements of government and industry regulations, as well as stronger corporate governance, continue to expand and evolve. VeriSign offers a range of flexible, open-standards authentication and encryption solutions to help you meet compliance requirements and respond quickly to security audits.

Concerns about identity theft, corporate fraud, and unauthorised access to personal information are driving the expansion and evolution of government and industry regulations worldwide. Most regulations address authentication, data integrity, and audit trails, but do not provide specific requirements for technology. Non-compliance may result in business shutdown or penalties. Regulations with identity or data management components include SOX, GLBA, HIPAA, HSPD-12, FFIEC, EU Data Protection, and EU Digital Signature directives.

Strong authentication and encryption help to mitigate the risk of non-compliance by reducing the threat of unauthorised access and limiting the exposure in case of a breach. Strong authentication combines something you know with something you have such as a one-time password or a digital certificate. Digital certificates can also be used to encrypt data during transmission and to sign transactions digitally. VeriSign can help businesses choose the right combination of PKI and OTP technologies to achieve compliance quickly and prepare for the future.

VeriSign offers a full range of PKI and OTP services with flexible deployment options, to help protect your digital assets and user identities without the effort and expense of building it yourself. We can help you respond to business challenges and regulations related to strong authentication and the maintenance of data confidentiality and integrity, so that you can focus on more strategic initiatives.
