Peripheral and Removable Media Protection that Helps You Stay Compliant
As cyberattacks and the threat actors that carry them out become more sophisticated, governing bodies around the world are implementing regulations to ensure critical infrastructure is doing what’s necessary to stay secure. Failure to comply with these regulations put your organization at financial, reputational, and even physical risk. Peripheral and removable media protection is critical when it comes to staying compliant with key global regulations.
ISO 27001
ISO 27001 is an international standard for information security management systems, providing a framework for organizations to establish, implement, maintain, and continually improve their information security processes. Peripheral and removable media protection is essential for compliance with ISO 27001 because it ensures that organizations effectively manage the risks associated with external devices, protecting sensitive data from unauthorized access, loss, or compromise, as required by the standard's information security controls.
NIST 800-53
NIST 800-53 is a framework by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) providing guidelines for securing federal information systems and organizations. Peripheral and removable media protection is a critical consideration for compliance with NIST 800-53 as it addresses controls to protect sensitive data stored on external devices, mitigating the risk of unauthorized access, data breaches, and ensuring adherence to federal security standards.
NIS2
NIS2 (Network and Information Systems Directive 2) is an EU directive aimed at enhancing cybersecurity and resilience across critical sectors. Peripheral and removable media security for compliance with NIS2 means that organizations protect personal and critical data stored on external devices, ensuring compliance with data protection regulations and minimizing the risk of data breaches and cyber incidents.
CIP-003-7 and CIP-010-4
CIP-003-7 and CIP-010-4 are standards developed by the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) for the protection of critical infrastructure in the electric power industry, focusing on cybersecurity and physical security, respectively. Peripheral and removable media protection helps organizations comply with these standards as preventing unauthorized access to critical systems and data stored on external devices and reducing the risk of cyberattacks helps to ensure the reliability and resilience of the electric power grid.

US Executive Order 14028
US Executive Order 14028 is a directive aimed at improving the nation's cybersecurity posture by establishing standards for federal agencies and contractors. Peripheral and removable media protection helps mitigate the risk of unauthorized access to sensitive government information through external devices, aligning with the order's focus on enhancing cybersecurity resilience and safeguarding critical infrastructure.
ANSSI
ANSSI (Agence Nationale de la Sécurité des Systèmes d'Information) is the French National Cybersecurity Agency responsible for ensuring the security of information systems in France. Peripheral and removable media protection helps prevent unauthorized access to sensitive data stored on external devices, reducing the risk of data breaches and ensuring the overall security and integrity of information systems as mandated by ANSSI regulations.
GDPR
GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) is a European Union regulation governing the protection of personal data and privacy rights of individuals within the EU and the European Economic Area. Peripheral and removable media security for compliance with GDPR means that organizations protect personal and critical data stored on external devices, ensuring compliance with data protection regulations and minimizing the risk of data breaches and cyber incidents.
