Press Release: ComplianceVue Packages for PCI, NERC and HIPAA

eiqbeth — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 18:13:29 +0000

Today eIQ announced new ComplianceVue Packages, a turnkey offering to address compliance reporting requirements based on its SecureVue® security and compliance management platform. The ComplianceVue^TM packages (PCIVue^TM, NERCVue^TM, and HIPAAVue^TM) provide detailed compliance reporting across more than just log data, greatly surpassing the capabilities of competitive products. ComplianceVue packages are available immediately to address PCI-DSS, NERC CIP and HIPAA regulatory requirements.

“eIQnetworks already correlates data from more data sources than any other solution on the market, and for that reason SecureVue is uniquely positioned to identify sophisticated in-progress attacks or vulnerabilities that log-only solutions will miss,” said Vijay Basani, eIQnetworks’ CEO. “With the ComplianceVue packages, eIQ now offers a turnkey solution for comprehensive compliance reporting across a broad range of security data including events, configuration data, vulnerabilities, and network flows, proving again that ‘log data is not enough’ to properly prove adherence to regulatory rules.”

The new ComplianceVue packages include a SecureVue Central Server, and the associated compliance reporting modules and dashboards required to provide necessary documentation for regulatory-driven audits. Reporting is effortless, and section-specific compliance reports are directly linked to appropriate rules and requirements of each supported regulation, best practice, or standard. Interactive dashboards provide real-time views into key compliance metrics, and provide drill-down into underlying data to support comprehensive internal and external auditing needs.

For more details and benefits on the new ComplianceVue package, check out the full press release on the eIQ site: “eIQnetworks Introduces ComplianceVue Packages for PCI, NERC and HIPAA to Streamline Regulatory Compliance Reporting”

eIQcast Episode 10: Stimulating the EHR

Mike Rothman — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 20:47:59 +0000

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act signed by President Obama last month includes a new initiative to create standard electronic health records over the next few years. Since a standard way to exchange health information opens up the possibility of a hacker attack, the federal government is creating new rules to protect the health records.

In this episode of eIQcast, Ross Levanto interviews eIQnetworks Product Evangelist John Linkous. They walk through the new initiative outlined in the act and the timeline for the new IT rules addressing electronic record protection.

eIQcast9: HIPAA is back!

Mike Rothman — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 14:22:31 +0000

It looks like 2009 maybe finally be the year of HIPAA. For those of you in the business for a long time, HIPAA was big news back in the early part of this decade (2001-2004), but due to a lack of enforcement, the regulation has not been top of mind for years, in the wake of Sarbanes-Oxley and PCI.

But that seems to be changing. Recently, the pharmacy company CVS/Caremark was levied a fine of more than $2M for a violation of HIPAA rules. Additionally, provisions in the stimulus bill recently signed into law by President Obama provide insight into future enforcement of HIPAA compliance. In this episode of eIQcast, host Ross Levanto interviews eIQnetworks Product Evangelist John Linkous on the news of the fine and what it means for IT and security managers.
