Google Docs Compliance and Regulation

Meet compliance and regulatory requirements. It’s simple.

Compliance regulations such as SOX, HIPAA, FISMA and internal audits performed as part of a risk assessment, are stressful events to any IT organization. When It comes to understanding the relevance of these regulations on sensitive data, it can be boiled down to a simple notion: Proving the IT organization has visibility AND control into the data environment that ensures that only the right people have access to sensitive data stored on Google Docs.

Gaining this type of visibility requires assessing the IT organization’s capability of answering a few key questions:

Who has access to what?
What is accessible to whom?
How did access rights to sensitive data change at different points in time?
