EU GDPR compliance through the ISO 27001 implementation and/ NIST sp800-53r4.
RM Studio v5.3 is now ready to support your GDPR compliance obligations through the Integrated Risk Management Framework and the implementation of the ISO 27001 providing you with a head start before the GDPR goes into force on 25 May 2018.
The NIST sp800-53 r.4 has also been added and working with multiple Standards, Regulations, and Controls sets is easy to do in RM Studio v5.3. The new feature for mapping one Standard/Regulation to one another that was introduced in v5.2 minimizes duplication of work and resources. For example, if your organization has already implemented ISO/IEC 27001:13 and now must comply with the EU GDPR, RM Studio’s Control Implementation Comparison tool with report (added in v5.2) presents a clear mapping of the ISO27002 requirements and Annes A controls already implemented to meet GDPR Articles of the regulation.
The release RM Studio version 5.3 is available for immediate download by our users. Anyone else interested in reviewing the software should request an online demonstration.
