# SOC Readiness:
##### Prepare to Rock your SOC
Many customers have increased vendor management procedures and require a System and Organization Controls (SOC) report from key vendors. This has made obtaining a SOC report critical to businesses – particularly application developers, data centers, law firms, professional service providers, among others. The process can be complex and daunting without a guide to help you along the way. STG can be a key player on your team by helping you prepare for the SOC examination process.
We assist you by identifying which SOC report is right for your business, which trust services criteria are necessary to meet, walking through a readiness assessment with you to evaluate the controls you have in place and identify any existing gaps, review your process documentation for consistency and accuracy.
We partner with you to develop mitigating controls and plan for implementation. STG is available as a resource throughout your SOC examination process to answer questions and facilitate discussions with your third – party auditor, enabling you to achieve your SOC goals sooner and more smoothly.
# CMMC Readiness
##### You are the first line of defense
Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is a standard aimed at securing the Department of Defense (DoD) supply chain. This is because many breaches in recent years were found to develop from cybersecurity incidents within vendor environments. The security of the DoD’s supply chain is imperative to our nation’s overall defense.
We guide organizations through the CMMC process by:
* Identifying the necessary compliance level based on your business function, handling of CUI, and future goals
* Mapping your current cybersecurity program against CMMC Level 2/NIST 800-171 R2, documenting identified IT security process inefficiencies and areas of improvement opportunities
* Developing and updating policies & procedures needed to satisfy CMMC Level 2 cybersecurity practices
* Assisting with preparation for CMMC certification process & providing support during CMMC audit and certification

# **Privacy Policy**
### **Collection of Information**
We collect non-personally identifiable information about you in a number of ways, including tracking your activities through your IP address or most-recently-visited URL. However, we do not collect any personally identifiable information about you unless you voluntarily submit contact information to us, such as name, phone, email address, and mailing address by filling out a form or survey, registering your email address with us or emailing us. We may also collect personal information from you at other points on our site that state that personal information is being collected.
### **Disclosure of Information**
We do not sell or rent your personally identifiable information to any third parties.
### **Use of Information**
We use personally identifiable and non-personally identifiable information for internal marketing purposes, for trend analysis, for pattern detection, and for site administration. However, we do not use personally identifiable information collected from the website to send unsolicited mailings to you. Of course, if applicable, we do use personally identifiable information to perform the services for which such data was collected (i.e., if you sign up for an email newsletter, we will send the email newsletter to the address you provide us).
We provide you the opportunity to ‘opt-out’ of having your personally identifiable information used for certain purposes, when we ask for this information. For example, if you purchase a product/service but do not wish to receive any additional marketing material from us, you can indicate your preference by clicking on the unsubscribe link contained in the footer of the email.
If you no longer wish to receive our newsletter and promotional communications, you may opt-out of receiving them by clicking on the unsubscribe link in the footer included in each newsletter or communication or by emailing us at the reply address of the email or you may contact us by phone at (662) 399-2400.
### **Third Party Sites**
This policy only addresses our activities from our servers. Other sites (including those that we link to within an advertisement, article or otherwise, and third party sites or services with which we offer or co-brand) may have their own policies, which we do not control, and thus are not addressed by this policy.
The forms referenced for Salesforce.com on our site will connect directly with websites owned and operated by Salesforce.com who have their own corporate privacy policy, and the policies contained herein do not apply to the data collected by them.
### **Review and Removal of Your Personally Identifiable Data**
If you provide us with personally identifiable information to have us perform ongoing services to you, we will provide you with a way to review the information we have on file and either change or remove such data. To do so, please notify us via post or email at the address above and we will provide you with your contact information for review. To make changes, send us the changes and we will respond to your request for access within thirty (30) days of the request. Unfortunately, to the extent that such information is also stored in other databases, we cannot always ensure that such corrections or deletions will reach the other databases.
If you wish to have information you provided to us online removed from our records, please provide us with the information as you submitted it to us at the address above. We will use all reasonable efforts to ensure that your information is removed from our records.
### **Cookies and Other Tracking Methods**
When you view our website, we might store some information on your computer. This information will be in the form of a “cookie” or similar file. Cookies are small pieces of information stored on your hard drive, not on our site. Cookies, which are tied to personal information, do not spy on you or otherwise invade your privacy, and they cannot invade your hard drive and steal information. Rather, they help you navigate a website as easily as possible. Cookies can help us provide information that is targeted to your interests and they allow us to better understand how users use our site, which in turn helps us focus our resources on features that are most popular with our users.
You are always free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, but some parts of our site, including our registered customer account web sites may not work properly in that case.
### **Third Party Tracking**
We use a third-party tracking service from Google Analytics that uses cookies to track information about visitors to our site in the aggregate on page visits, time on page, and visitor bounce rates to enable us to make the site better and more informative to our visitors.
### **Legal Disclosure**
We reserve the right to disclose your personally identifiable information as required by law and when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process served on our Website.
### **Security**
We use industry-standard methods to protect your personally identifiable information from unauthorized access. Among other techniques, we usually store such information on a computer behind our “firewall” in a secure location, and we often restrict the number of employees internally who can access such data. Of course, there is no such thing as “perfect security” on the Internet.
### **Amendments**
Amendments to this policy will be posted at this URL and will be effective when posted.
### **Changes in this Privacy Statement**
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement, the home page, and other places we deem appropriate so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
We reserve the right to modify this privacy statement at any time, so please review it frequently. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you here, by email, or by means of a notice on our home page.
