Security Standards White Papers

Enforcing Regulatory Compliance in Smartphone-Enabled Workplaces

Tags:
security standards

Overview Many industries are subject to regulations, such as FINRA in the financial services sector, SOX in public companies and HIPAA in healthcare, that include provisions to provide data protection, communications control and information flow management. As new technologies are adopted, organizations need to review and adapt their compliance systems to adequately respond to new threats and risks. No technical advance had posed as significant a challenge to this process as the introduction of wireless communications devices, smartphones in particular. This paper outlines the main issues IT departments need to consider when addressing regulatory compliance for smartphones and how Onset Technology's METAmessage Advanced Compliance Tool resolves these issues.
