eGestalt Partners Find Profitable Bundling Opportunities with New Cloud Security and Compliance Tool

SecureGRC tool built for channel assumeslittle to no knowledge of PCI/HIPAA security and compliance rules.

Denver, CO (XChange Americas), Thursday – August 11, 2011 — eGestalt Technologies ( http://www.eGestalt.com ) last week announced version 11 of its HIPAA/HITECH and PCI risk assessment, auditing and remediation tool that meets security and compliance objectives for SMBs to large enterprises and that has been a boon to service providers and MSPs looking to find additional sources of revenuein the course of confirming and sustaining compliance mandates.

“During the course of taking a client through the steps of becoming HIPAA compliant, the SecureGRC tool sniffs out revenue-making bundling opportunities like nothing else,” says David Altizer, vice president of SOS Systems based in Memphis, Tenn., and an eGestalt partner.

“We invariably discover multiple areas that need our attention; we find our clients need written policies, they need endpoint security, they need Active Directory, and a host of other things that improves our perceived value and length of engagement.”

SecureGRC SB™v11 is offered in two versions: Enterprise and Small Business editions. Partners will immediately realize the benefits of using SecureGRC’s highly automated, scalable, and cost-effective security and compliance management solution complete with pre-audit and post-audit support, a real-time dashboard that offers multiple assessments, reviews and remediation: in short, a configurable policy-based risk model with real-time status that enables channel partners to deliver managed security and compliance services for SMBs to large enterprises.

Built from the ground up to profit the channel, SecureGRC offers ready-to-use, pre-packaged content such as policies which are continuously updated, a trove of best practices, and plenty of assessment questions that make it an easy step-by-step process to run the assessment and reach compliance, yet flexible enough to fully customize accordingly.

“Version 11 looks like it’s going to be a lot easier to deploy, a lot easier to manage, and will let us grow a lot faster. It’s a more intuitive user interface, and it’s easier for us to manage our clients,” said Altizer. “Every concern of ours has been addressed. That’s a refreshing change of pace. We are looking forward to version 11 and already have two deployments scheduled for it.”

Joe Dylewski, president of ATMP Solutions of southeastern Michigan, said, “Using eGestalt’s tool, SecureGRC, we created a HIPAA/HITECH Business Associate Compliance Assessment, which conducts an accurate and thorough analysis of an organization’s current compliance status. Thanks to our joint efforts with eGestalt, we can offer our customers a comprehensive solution that quickly and cost-effectively enables governance, risk management and compliance. We hope to sell 100 engagements of SecureGRC by year end.”

Reflecting on the significant improvements to Version 11, Jim Hare, eGestalt channel chief,said, “Version 11has truly demystified the complexity of solving the compliance problem. It is completely channel-centric. Partners can useit to manage theirown sub-partners. A master dashboard allows users to capture the risk and compliance status of each client in a single view, this helps to quickly determine what needs to be done to complete the compliance process.”
