A Commitment to Security and Compliance

In today’s fast-evolving digital landscape, security and compliance are not just important—they are essential. Companies of all sizes and across industries face increased risks from cyber threats, regulatory fines, and reputational damage when sensitive data is not properly handled.

 

At Techairt, we recognise that staying compliant with laws, standards, and industry-specific regulations can be complex and time-consuming. That’s why we’ve built compliance into the very core of our workflow automation AI-guided software, so you can focus on running your business efficiently, knowing your data is safe, secure, and aligned with global best practices.

 

Whether you’re required to comply with data protection laws like GDPR, HIPAA in the healthcare sector, or PCI-DSS for payment security, we ensure that our systems meet these standards so you don’t have to worry. We have also adopted frameworks like ISO/IEC 27001 for Information Security Management, giving you peace of mind that your data is managed to the highest international standards.

What is Compliance and Why Does It Matter?

Compliance means adhering to a set of rules or standards—whether set by governments, industries, or internal company policies—that ensure secure, ethical, and legal business operations.
 

In practical terms, it means:

 

  • Protecting sensitive information such as customer data, financial records, or healthcare details.

  • Ensuring legal and regulatory obligations are met, such as the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) in healthcare.

  • Avoiding costly fines and penalties that could arise from non-compliance with these laws.

  • Building trust with your customers, who rely on you to safeguard their personal or business information.

 

By staying compliant, you not only avoid risks but also position your business as trustworthy, reliable, and secure in an increasingly regulated marketplace.

Why We Take Compliance Seriously

We understand that some of our customers may not have had to think about compliance before. However, as businesses grow, so do the responsibilities related to handling customer and internal data. Our commitment to compliance helps ensure that you are protected from regulatory risks from day one.

 

Here are just a few reasons why compliance is a priority:

 

  • Data Protection: In today’s interconnected world, data is a valuable asset, but it’s also a target for cyber-attacks. We protect your data using the latest security protocols, including encryption and access controls.

  • Avoiding Penalties: Failing to comply with regulations like GDPR can result in severe penalties, which can be damaging not just financially, but also to your business’s reputation.

  • Operational Efficiency: Compliance isn’t just about security—it’s also about ensuring that your operations are optimised and efficient. For example, adhering to certain standards may streamline processes and improve business continuity.

  • Client Trust: When your customers know that you take security and compliance seriously, they are more likely to trust you with their data, giving you a competitive edge.

 

Our platform is designed to meet all these needs, ensuring that you can confidently navigate the complexities of compliance without sacrificing ease of use or efficiency. To learn more about specific compliance standards, please explore the sections below:

2023: A Year of Record-Breaking Data Breaches

In 2023, data breaches continued to rise, setting new records in terms of both the number of incidents and the scale of the data compromised. By September, over 733 data breaches had been reported, impacting more than 66 million individuals. Notably, healthcare and technology sectors saw particularly severe breaches, with the MOVEit Transfer vulnerability being one of the largest, affecting more than 94 million individuals globally. Healthcare alone saw over 124 million records compromised, with the vast majority stemming from hacking incidents.

Several significant legal actions were taken due to compliance failures. One of the most notable was a $1.3 billion fine imposed on Meta by the Irish Data Protection Commission for transferring EU data to the US, violating GDPR regulations. This was the largest fine ever levied under GDPR. Moreover, the regulatory scrutiny following major breaches, such as those affecting healthcare providers under HIPAA, continues to intensify .

 

The increasing frequency and scale of breaches, combined with evolving cybercrime tactics, underscore the need for strong compliance frameworks and proactive security measures to avoid significant penalties and reputational damage.​​

Risk Management and Incident Response

We proactively manage security risks by regularly conducting assessments and identifying potential vulnerabilities. In the event of a security incident, our incident response team is ready to act immediately, and we follow all legal requirements for breach notifications.

Continuous Monitoring and Auditing

Our systems are continuously monitored for suspicious activity, and we conduct regular internal and third-party audits to ensure our ISMS complies with the latest security and regulatory standards.
