HIPAA. PCI DSS. CMMC. FTC Safeguards Rule. Axio Networks helps Scottsdale businesses achieve and maintain compliance — integrating requirements directly into your IT environment.
HIPAA, the FTC Safeguards Rule, PCI DSS, GLBA and the NIST framework all describe security in terms of controls: who has access, whether data is encrypted, how quickly patches are applied, whether staff are trained, whether backups are tested. Regulators, auditors and cyber-insurance carriers increasingly ask for evidence of those controls, not a signed policy in a binder.
Axio Networks translates the framework that applies to your business into a concrete set of IT controls, implements them, and produces the documentation — risk assessments, written security programs, policy sets and monthly reports — that proves they are working. For Scottsdale medical practices, financial firms, title companies and dealerships, it is the difference between passing an audit and scrambling through one.
A WISP tailored to your business that satisfies the FTC Safeguards Rule and IRS requirements for tax preparers, maintained and reviewed annually rather than written once and forgotten.
Controls like MFA, encryption, patching and backup are monitored continuously, with drift flagged and fixed before it shows up in an audit finding.
When a client, carrier or regulator sends a security questionnaire or audit request, we prepare the answers and evidence with you — quickly and accurately.
Technical safeguards for protected health information (PHI) — encryption, access controls, audit logging, and incident response. Required for healthcare providers and business associates.
Payment card security requirements for businesses that accept, store, or transmit cardholder data. We implement the technical controls and documentation required for annual compliance.
Updated requirements from the FTC that apply to auto dealerships, mortgage brokers, financial advisors, and related businesses. Requires a formal information security program.
Required for DoD contractors handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). We help businesses achieve the technical controls required for CMMC Level 1 and Level 2.
Security, availability, and confidentiality controls for technology companies and service providers. We help implement the technical controls supporting SOC 2 Type I and Type II audits.
Voluntary but widely adopted framework for cybersecurity risk management. Many compliance programs and cyber insurers reference NIST CSF as their baseline standard.
European data protection regulation applying to businesses with EU customers or data subjects. We help implement the technical measures required under GDPR.
We confirm which frameworks and contractual requirements apply to your business and data — often more than one.
A risk assessment maps your current controls to each requirement and ranks the gaps by exposure.
Technical controls, policies and training are put in place as part of your managed IT and security services.
Evidence is collected continuously, policies are reviewed annually, and you always have a current compliance package on hand.
Compliance built into IT, not sold separately. Because Axio Networks runs your infrastructure, the controls are implemented once and maintained every day — not audited into existence the week before a deadline.
Deep experience with regulated SMBs. We work with healthcare practices, accounting and financial firms, mortgage and title companies, law firms and dealerships across the Phoenix metro — each with its own framework.
Documentation you can hand over. Risk assessments, WISPs, policies and monthly control reports are produced in formats auditors and insurers accept, saving you weeks of effort.
Honest about scope. We are an IT and security provider, not a law firm. We tell you when you need an attorney or a qualified security assessor, and we work alongside them.
The controls most frameworks require — MFA, encryption, patching, monitoring, backup, access reviews, training — are exactly what a well-run managed IT service already does. Axio Networks maps those controls to your framework, adds the policies and documentation, and reports on them monthly, so compliance is a by-product of good IT rather than a separate project.
HIPAA, the FTC Safeguards Rule and GLBA, PCI DSS, the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, and the CIS Controls. We also help with SOC 2 readiness and CMMC preparation for businesses with federal or defense contracts.
If you are a “financial institution” in the FTC’s broad definition — which includes mortgage brokers, tax preparers and accountants, auto dealers offering financing, and many others — yes. The rule requires a written security program, a designated coordinator, a risk assessment and specific technical controls.
Yes. Carrier questionnaires ask about the same controls compliance frameworks do. We complete the technical sections with you and provide evidence, which often improves both eligibility and premiums.
Both. Technical controls without written policies do not satisfy auditors, and policies without enforcement do not protect you. Axio Networks delivers the policy set, the implementation and the ongoing evidence.
