Compliance with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is the first step toward working with government agencies such as the Department of Defense and public sector contractors. These security guidelines represent comprehensive best practices for your business, but they can be challenging to implement. The US IT Services team of cybersecurity experts will start with a NIST compliance audit of your systems, then implement processes and monitor your network going forward.

Our NIST Compliance Services Include:

NIST Compliance Audit

We’ll compare your current processes to the requirements and provide the best practices to bring you up to standards. Once you’ve established compliance, we will conduct the required regular audits to confirm your business remains secure.

Categorize Your Data

We’ll work with you to determine what data needs to be protected, and what can remain unencrypted or shared over standard email. This provides the starting point for developing a written security plan.

Document Your Security Plan

Documentation is the key to the process. We auto-generate the necessary documentation, input the specifics for your company, and keep everything updated so they’re easy to access during an official audit.

Implement Security Controls

Once you have the plan in place, it’s time to implement it across all of your devices. This step takes some time, but US IT ensures each device on the network meets the NIST compliance audit requirements.

Continuous Monitoring

The final part of NIST compliance is continuous monitoring. Now that each element is secure, you need to monitor for attempted breaches and keep devices updated. We’ll alert you when an element needs remediation and offer the best practices to resolve the issue.
