Spectra 3.0 Provides Expert Advantage for IT Compliance with PCI DSS V1.2 Support
Spectra 3.0 addresses the latest PCI DSS Standards in addition to multiple other regulations such as SOX, HIPAA and GLBA
Austin, TX (PRWEB) November 7, 2008 -- Compliance Spectrum, a provider of expert solutions for compliance management, today announced that version 3.0 of Spectra, a complete IT compliance solution that includes in-depth expertise for managing compliance to multiple regulations and standards, now includes support for the latest revision of the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS).
PCI DSS compliance is required of any organization that conducts business with a credit card, providing protection for card holder data. Version 1.2 of this regulation was delivered in October and includes more than two dozen changes to the previous version.
Spectra 3.0 provides organizations with the ability to achieve and report compliance to PCI V1.2 while at the same time automating and managing their IT compliance efforts to meet other IT regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, Financial Services Authority rules, and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act.
With Spectra 3.0, users can more easily comply with any new requirements since all controls are defined in Spectra. Users are free from having to update spreadsheets or determine what's changed under new standards such as PCI V1.2. With Spectra, new controls are added as required and mapped to standards or frameworks such as ISO 27002.
"As enterprise-class IT groups begin adopting PCI V1.2, their organizations and their customers will benefit from an increase in cardholder data security and reduced risks of data breaches," said Steve Helwig, business and compliance analyst for Compliance Spectrum and recognized PCI expert. "With Spectra 3.0 our customers will have the tools and the expertise they need to help adhere to this new standard with greater abilities to report and manage compliance across large and complex networks around the globe."
Spectra 3.0 is currently available through Compliance Spectrum. For more information about Spectra 3.0, go to www.compliancespectrum.com or call 866-947-2932.
