Keeping your staff safe online

Intergraph selected the user awareness solution from MetaCompliance to assist with the management of key cybersecurity policies and cybersecurity training for users. Information security and compliance is Important to Intergraph, given the multiply jurisdictions and customers with which it works. Intergraph needed a cloud solution that would provide value to our 24x7 support function and customer policy and training needs. The MetaCompliance software delivered this.

In a time of austerity, the purchase of any new software solution must provide demonstrable return on investment as well as seeking to deliver value-added benefits beyond its initial scope. We have therefore taken the concept of the Metacompliance compliance solution and have been able to demonstrate a number of cross-departmental benefits including the support of operational policing as well as good corporate business practices.

NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde have being using Metacompliance as a way of communicating key messages and policies to staff as part of our Information Governance Awareness Programme. The software is great for delivering short sharp messages to staff and for testing their knowledge of policies. It leaves a clear audit trail which is helpful if you are in the unfortunate position of having to report a breach to the ICO as it provides evidence of your communication to staff and can identify individual staff members as having read and understood key policies. The product is easy to use and customer service and support is excellent.

Awareness training is one of the best ways to make sure company employees will not make costly errors with respect to information security. Uninformed users can easily do harm to the corporate network given the threat landscape. The MetaCompliance product allows our company to distribute Information Security awareness material to all staff, in addition to company policies where annual acceptance is sought. All such policies, associated surveys and compliance levels can then be easily reported and audited. RSA currently use this product for the distribution and compliance to the Acceptable Use Policy, Business Continuity policy, and the Data Protection Policy. Furthermore, the MetaCompliance team is best in class in terms of support – we receive regular updates in regard to vendor awareness material, product updates, issue resolution etc. RSA have been using this product for 6 years which is a testament to both the product and the support team.
