Massachusetts Data Security & Privacy Compliance (201 CMR 17)

Making Sense of Compliance

Massachusetts has passed far-reaching data security and privacy laws (201 CMR 17:00) to protect the residents of the Commonwealth. The regulations are not industry specific, but rather affect every company that does business in Massachusetts and handles personal information of the state’s residents – from the pizza shop that takes credit cards to the largest insurance carrier and everyone in between.

The compliance deadline passed on 3/31/2010. Any organization that has not completed a project to put the compliant resources, systems and processes in place and procured services to ensure ongoing compliance is now in breach of 201 CMR 17:00.

But don’t worry, it’s not too late! We’re here to help you make sense of the new laws. Skyrope is the founding member of a consortium that features two specialized law firms, a full-service security firm, computer forensics experts – and we will get you compliant in the most painless and cost-effective way possible.

What Our Clients Say

Testimonial 2

“We first met with Skyrope when we were having major inefficiencies at the office. As a well-established but very busy medical practice, we had fallen behind in our billing, our infrastructure was outdated, and the whole operation suffered.

Skyrope handled everything from giving us a new network with office automation to paperwork reduction and connectivity to outside sources, from HIPAA-compliant security to integrating our site with our outsourced medical billing provider – and data center services ranging from email to storage, from backups to disaster recovery. They truly offered from one source what it would have taken several vendors to do with massive project management overhead, for which we simply would not have had the time or the know-how. I think where Skyrope really shines is in the accountability they take for what they build and the comprehensive ongoing support they provide.”
