Compliance gap analysis
A detailed review of your organization’s current security practices compared to the requirements of your chosen compliance framework.
What is a compliance gap analysis?
Gap Analysis identifies where your organization does not yet meet the requirements of standards such as ISO 27001, GDPR, PCI DSS, or HIPAA. Unlike a certification audit that results in pass or fail, Gap Analysis highlights weaknesses in advance, giving you time to close gaps and prepare for success.
