Start using Office.com/setup 365 to accelerate modern compliance

With more than 200 updates from 750 regulatory bodies a day, keeping up to date with all the changes is a tremendous challenge. As privacy regulations, like the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR), continue to evolve, compliance requirements can seem complex to understand and meet. However, when you store your data in the Office.com/setup Cloud, achieving compliance becomes a shared responsibility between you and Office.com/setup. Take the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 800-53 security control framework as an example—Office.com/setup helps you take care of 79 percent of the 1,021 controls, and you can focus your efforts on the remaining 21 percent. Additionally, Microsoft provides you with a broad set of security and compliance solutions to more seamlessly implement your controls.

In addition to a number of investments made over the last year to support GDPR compliance and the privacy rights of individuals, we hear from you that organizations need more built-in capabilities to proactively achieve modern compliance. Therefore, we are working diligently to bring more artificial intelligence (AI) powered, user-centered, and integrated compliance solutions into Office.com/setup 365. Today, we’re announcing new and expanded capabilities that support your organization’s compliance journey.

Assess and manage your compliance for GDPR and more

Conducting ongoing risk assessments of your information management systems is a crucial activity to help your organization understand the effectiveness of security, compliance, and privacy controls; recognize the risks, and make appropriate plans to remediate when needed.

We expanded Compliance Manager to offer 12 assessments, including security control frameworks, such as NIST CSF and CSA CCM, and regulated industry standards like FFIEC and FedRAMP. These assessments can help you proactively enhance your data protection controls and meet compliance obligations. Learn more about this update in our Tech Community blog.
