NIST Assessments

Our NIST assessments focus on aligning your cybersecurity practices with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) framework. We conduct thorough evaluations of your current security posture, identifying vulnerabilities and offering tailored recommendations to enhance your compliance. Our detailed reports provide actionable items and step-by-step remediation strategies, ensuring your organization can confidently navigate the complexities of cybersecurity.

FFIEC Assessments

For financial institutions, compliance with the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) standards is crucial. JAO Partners conducts rigorous FFIEC assessments to evaluate your cybersecurity controls, risk management processes, and overall security posture. Our comprehensive reports outline our findings and provide clear, actionable guidance to address any gaps, helping you maintain compliance and protect your financial data.

FINRA Assessments

Compliance with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) standards is essential for broker-dealers and other financial services firms. JAO Partners offers specialized FINRA assessments to ensure your organization meets these stringent requirements. Our assessments identify compliance gaps and provide practical recommendations to enhance your policies and procedures, safeguarding your firm against regulatory risks.

HIPAA Assessments

Healthcare organizations must adhere to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) to protect patient information. Our HIPAA assessments at JAO Partners thoroughly evaluate your compliance with these critical regulations. We deliver detailed reports with actionable recommendations to address vulnerabilities and improve your data protection measures, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of patient information.

NY-DFS Assessments

The New York Department of Financial Services (NY-DFS) has stringent cybersecurity requirements for financial institutions. JAO Partners conducts comprehensive NY-DFS assessments to help your organization meet these rigorous standards. Our evaluations identify compliance gaps and provide detailed, actionable steps to enhance your cybersecurity framework, ensuring your organization remains compliant and secure.
