The story of incident.io traces back to our time at Monzo, a UK-based bank, where Stephen, Pete, and I first met. Working in a highly regulated industry like banking, compliance with various regulations was a top priority for us.
When it came to incident management, which we were deeply involved in, we realized the importance of consistent and meticulous reporting, policy adherence, and root cause analysis. This firsthand experience led us to create incident.io, not only as a powerful tool for engineers and technical leaders but also to streamline compliance processes and make them more efficient.
Whether you’re gearing up for a SOC2 audit, enhancing your GDPR incident reporting, or navigating SEC Cyber Security Reporting guidelines, this post is for you.
Regulatory compliance is crucial for organizations, ensuring adherence to laws, regulations, and industry guidelines. Failure to comply can result in severe consequences, including financial penalties and legal action.
While compliance is serious, it doesn’t have to be overly complex or burdensome. incident.io simplifies the process, making it easier for organizations to manage cybersecurity and availability incidents effectively.
There are numerous regulations, security standards, and frameworks that organizations must adhere to, making effective incident management a necessity. Some key regulations include HIPAA, PCI DSS, GDPR, SEC Regulations, and the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA).
Despite the multitude of regulations, a well-defined incident management program can help organizations meet multiple compliance requirements with minimal effort.
Commonalities across regulatory compliance requirements include the need for incident detection, documented policies and procedures, incident classification, tracking actions during and after incidents, external notifications, root cause analysis, and employee training.
