Excited to share our recent work with Titan Intake, a digital health innovator transforming patient record processing. Their platform swiftly handles ePHI while ensuring #HIPAA compliance and meeting control objectives of SOC 2. Titan Intake sought BD Emerson’s help to navigate SOC 2 compliance and enhance HIPAA controls. We began with a comprehensive gap assessment, integrated #Vanta for streamlined compliance, and implemented security measures to enhance their current security posture to go above the compliance requirements. Thanks to our efforts, Titan Intake has now achieved SOC 2 compliance after validating their design for security with their Type I. As they immediately begin their monitoring window, BD Emerson will help Titan Intake mature their procedures, processes, and technical controls to exceed the requirements of SOC 2.

Ever wonder how to cut through the compliance maze without breaking the bank 🤔 ? Here's the inside scoop: tackling SOC 2 and ISO 27001 together can be a game-changer. 💰 Save on costs: we all know compliance can be a budget buster. But by bundling SOC 2 and ISO 27001, you can leverage the expertise of consultants for both standards at once, slashing costs significantly. Why pay double when you can streamline and save? Plus, your internal team spends less time in the compliance trenches, freeing them up to focus on what they do best. ⏰ Save on time: compliance isn’t just costly; it's a time sink. By syncing up SOC 2 and ISO 27001, you streamline documentation and audits, cutting out redundancy. Imagine fewer audits and faster compliance – sounds like a win-win, right? So, you can hit two birds with one stone and reduce auditor requests dramatically. 🔄 Reduce redundancies: both ISO 27001 and SOC 2 demand robust security measures like access controls and incident response plans. By unifying these efforts, you simplify processes and eliminate repetitive tasks. This unified approach ensures you meet both standards efficiently, keeping your operations smooth and secure.
