Cybersecurity Frameworks

Meet the Security Standards Your Business Requires

Schedule Compliance Assessment

Government contracts, healthcare data and financial records all come with security requirements attached. Those requirements aren't optional, and most businesses don't know if they're meeting them until an auditor asks. Diego Tech helps Arizona businesses understand what frameworks apply to their work, assess where they stand today and close the gaps that put contracts or compliance at risk.

We're not a certification authority. We're your implementation partner. We guide you through the process, build the controls and help you prepare for assessments.

 

Why Security Frameworks Matter for Your Business

Security frameworks exist for a practical reason: they define a minimum standard of protection for specific types of data and operations. If your business works with the federal government, processes health records or stores financial data, one of these frameworks almost certainly applies to you.

The risk of ignoring them goes beyond losing a contract. A data breach in a regulated industry can trigger fines, legal exposure and loss of operating licenses. A DoD contractor that doesn't meet CMMC requirements can't bid. A healthcare practice without HIPAA controls is a liability waiting to be discovered.

Getting compliant also makes your business more secure. The two go together more than most people expect.

 

CMMC & DoD Compliance

The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is the Department of Defense's framework for protecting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) across the defense industrial base. If your business holds or handles DoD contracts, CMMC compliance is a contract requirement.

 

Level 1 Support

Level 1 covers basic cyber hygiene: 17 practices drawn from FAR Clause 52.204-21. Diego Tech helps businesses implement and document these controls and complete the required annual self-assessment.

Level 2 Support

Level 2 aligns with NIST SP 800-171 and covers 110 practices for protecting CUI. Diego Tech supports gap analysis, control implementation, System Security Plan (SSP) development and preparation for third-party assessments conducted by C3PAOs.

 

Diego Tech has worked with DoD contractors and government-adjacent organizations across Arizona, including businesses supporting work at military installations in the region. We understand the operational requirements and the documentation expectations that come with federal contracting.

To be clear about our role: Diego Tech is an implementation and guidance partner. We are not a CMMC Third-Party Assessment Organization (C3PAO) and we do not issue certifications. For Level 2 certification, your business will work with an accredited C3PAO. We prepare you to pass that assessment.

 

HIPAA Compliance for Healthcare

Healthcare practices, dental offices and any business that handles Protected Health Information (PHI) must comply with HIPAA's Security Rule. The controls cover access management, audit logging, encryption, workforce training and breach notification procedures.

Diego Tech helps healthcare clients build a HIPAA-compliant IT environment from the ground up, or assess and remediate an existing one. Our work includes:

  • Security risk analysis (required by HIPAA, not optional)
  • Access control policies and implementation
  • Audit controls and activity logging
  • Encryption for data at rest and in transit
  • Business Associate Agreement (BAA) review with technology vendors
  • Incident response planning and breach notification procedures

 

NIST Cybersecurity Framework

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework (NIST CSF) is a voluntary but widely adopted standard that organizes security practices into five functions: Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond and Recover. Many industries use it as a baseline even without a formal compliance requirement.

For businesses that want a structured approach to improving security without a specific regulatory mandate, NIST CSF provides a clear roadmap. Diego Tech uses it as the foundation for security assessments and improvement planning across industries. It also aligns closely with CMMC Level 2, so work done toward NIST often accelerates CMMC readiness.

 

SOC 2 Readiness

SOC 2 is a security audit standard managed by the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA). It applies primarily to service organizations that store, process or transmit customer data. Technology companies, SaaS providers and managed service providers often face SOC 2 requirements from enterprise clients.

Diego Tech helps businesses prepare for SOC 2 Type 1 and Type 2 audits by reviewing current controls against the Trust Services Criteria, identifying gaps and implementing the policies and procedures auditors will examine. The actual audit is conducted by a licensed CPA firm. We prepare you for it.

 

Compliance Starts With Knowing Your Risk

Every compliance engagement begins with a gap assessment. If you don't know where you stand against the relevant framework, start with our Cybersecurity & Risk Assessment service. It gives us the baseline we need to build a realistic remediation plan. contact us
