Capabilities
Compliance Work That Gets Implemented, Not Just Documented.
From HIPAA Security Rule assessments to SOC 2 readiness — each engagement produces controls that actually work, evidence that survives audit, and a team that understands what they've built.
🏥
HIPAA Security Rule Assessment
A gap assessment mapped to HIPAA Security Rule technical, administrative, and physical safeguards. We evaluate your actual controls — not just your policies — and produce a remediation roadmap prioritized by breach exposure and audit likelihood. Built on CVS Health and Aetna implementation experience.
✅
SOC 2 Type I & II Readiness
Readiness assessment and gap remediation for SOC 2 Type I (point-in-time) and Type II (operating effectiveness over time). We help you implement the controls before the auditor arrives — not explain gaps after they find them. Trust Services Criteria mapped to your actual technology stack.
🔍
Security Posture Assessment
A structured review of your current security posture against the controls your insurers, clients, and regulators actually evaluate. Access controls, endpoint protection, network segmentation, patch management, backup architecture, and logging — scored and prioritized, not just listed.
🚨
Incident Response Planning
An incident response plan that connects your technical environment to your notification obligations. HIPAA Breach Notification Rule timelines, state data breach notification requirements, carrier reporting obligations, and board escalation paths — mapped to who you are, not a generic template.
💳
PCI-DSS Readiness
For companies handling cardholder data, Layer8 provides PCI-DSS scope definition, network segmentation review, and remediation support. We help you minimize scope through architecture — which reduces both your compliance burden and your breach exposure — and prepare evidence for your QSA.
🤝
Vendor & BAA Management
For healthcare companies, vendor oversight is a compliance requirement, not an optional practice. Layer8 helps you inventory your Business Associate relationships, review your BAA coverage, assess vendor AI and data practices, and build a vendor security review process you can actually sustain.
