Show your commitment to security and set yourself above the competition and by obtaining a ISO27001 certification.
What is ISO 27001?
ISO 27001, an information security standard established by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), is a widely recognized standard for information security management. It provides a framework to minimize the threats to information technology assets and the business.
The goal of the standard is to formally develop an Information Security Management System (ISMS) to establish risk-based approach to managing risks to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of an organization’s assets.
The ISO certification provides confidence to partners, customers and regulators on the protection of sensitive data by addressing all the technical, physical, legal, and administrative controls and provides an organization a competitive edge for your organization.

Increase your organization and your customers’ confidence by obtaining a SOC 2 report.
Developed by the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA), SOC 2 defines criteria for managing customer data
based on 5 principles which include:
SOC 2 reports are customized and are unique to each organization in which it designs its own controls to
comply with the aforementioned principles. SOC 2 reports provide business associates, partners and
regulators with an assessment of how a service provider manages data.
An audit of your system controls can potentially stressful. Archlight takes the anxiety out of the audit process and provides a comprehensive report that your service organization needs in order to stay in compliance. A SOC report can:
Archlight’s SOC 2 attestation reports can demonstrate your compliance with security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy controls. Our unique testing approach is based on these principles and criteria created by the AICPA and is performed by our expert assessors. Stay a step ahead of uncertainty with Archlight’s SOC 2 services.
The NIST CSF was created with the intent that organizations use an assessment of the risks they may encounter and help guide their use of the framework in an efficient and cost-effective manner. Specifically, the NIST CSF is a policy framework of security guidance that describes how organizations can assess and improve their ability to prevent, detect, and respond to cyberattacks. The framework provides a high-level approach to cybersecurity risks to assess and manage them. Federal regulatory entities have designated the NIST CsF as a recommended framework for maintaining compliance with security mandates. Organizations that can adopt the CsF are better positioned to comply with current and future security and privacy regulations.
The NIST Cybersecurity Framework offers a comprehensive approach for security experts. It not only provides an advanced level of flexibility and adaptability, but it also provides a cost-effective way for organizations to approach security, risk and compliance. This framework is a leading practice because it integrates industry standards to help organizations manage their cybersecurity risks.
Archlight offers comprehensive risk assessments to assess your organization’s overall security maturity with a view of identifying areas of improvement across people, processes and technology. We will also provide you with risk-informed, prioritized actions to achieve your target maturity state to effectively prevent, detect and respond to attacks.
Our experts have decades of experience, in business and security, and hold multiple industry-recognized certifications. We pride ourselves in ensuring that we have a clear understanding of your business objectives and high-level organizational priorities which are taken into account during the assessment process.

The EMRAM evaluation for a hospital includes a review of clinical system capabilities and adoption, plus benchmarking comparisons. It also supports the creation of investment cases across IT and the infrastructure to improve digital
maturity.
