IT Security Compliance and Assurance Services
Organizations today face increasing pressure to meet cybersecurity compliance requirements while managing evolving risks across cloud environments, third-party vendors, and internal systems. LBMC’s IT Security Compliance & Assurance services help mid-market and enterprise organizations assess, strengthen, and validate their security controls so they can reduce risk, demonstrate compliance, and build confidence with customers, business partners, and regulators.
With experience across leading cybersecurity frameworks and industries, LBMC helps organizations turn compliance into a practical, business-aligned strategy rather than a one-time audit exercise. Whenever possible, we leverage a single assessment to support multiple customer, regulatory, and framework reporting requirements, helping reduce duplicate effort while simplifying ongoing compliance.

FAQs About IT Security Compliance and Assurance Services
What are IT security compliance services?
They help organizations align their security controls with regulatory and industry standards such as SOC, PCI DSS, HITRUST, ISO 27001, and NIST.
How are assurance services different from compliance?
Compliance focuses on meeting requirements. Assurance validates that controls are properly designed and operating effectively.
How long does a compliance assessment take?
Most assessments take 6–12 weeks depending on scope, framework, and readiness.
What frameworks does LBMC support?
LBMC supports SOC, PCI DSS, HITRUST, ISO 27001, NIST 800-171, NIST 800-53, CMMC, and other regulatory standards.
Do these services help with audit preparation?
Yes. LBMC prepares organizations for audits by identifying gaps, strengthening controls, and providing required documentation.
Why is cloud security part of compliance?
Cloud systems often store sensitive data, making identity, access, and configuration controls essential for compliance.
Why is cloud security and third-party risk important for compliance?
As organizations adopt cloud platforms and rely on third-party vendors, cybersecurity risks extend beyond internal systems. Evaluating cloud configurations, identity and access controls, shared responsibility models, and vendor security practices helps organizations strengthen their security posture while supporting customer, regulatory, and industry requirements.
LBMC helps organizations evaluate cloud environments through Cloud Security Assessments and reduce third-party risk with Vendor Risk Management (VRM). These services help identify vulnerabilities, improve governance, and build greater confidence in your organization’s overall cybersecurity and compliance program.
