CMMC Compliance & OT Security Manufacturing

Unknown

Advanced Networks successfully achieved full CMMC Level 2 compliance and addressed OT/IT security issues for a defense subcontractor based in Anaheim, CA, located in Orange County. Our team, dedicated to supporting businesses in Los Angeles and Orange County with intricate IT and cybersecurity requirements, completed a comprehensive 4-phase project in just 118 days. This effort involved eliminating 14 critical vulnerabilities, achieving complete OT/IT network segmentation across two facilities, implementing multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all 145 users, and migrating Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) to a CMMC-compliant environment with Data Loss Prevention (DLP) controls. As a result, the client successfully passed their C3PAO assessment without any issues and retained their Department of Defense (DoD) contract. Advanced Networks offers managed IT services, cybersecurity, and CMMC preparation for manufacturers, defense contractors, and professional services firms throughout Los Angeles and Orange County, CA.

SEC Cybersecurity Compliance - Private Equity Firm

Unknown

Advanced Networks conducted a comprehensive SEC cybersecurity compliance remediation and managed IT services project for a private equity firm and registered investment adviser (RIA) located in Century City, Los Angeles. The engagement followed an internal assessment that uncovered significant vulnerabilities as the firm prepared for an SEC exam under the Cybersecurity Risk Management Rule (206(4)-9). Our team successfully completed a four-phase remediation in just 74 days, addressing critical tasks such as: resolving nine major network and endpoint vulnerabilities, implementing multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all 68 accounts using Microsoft Entra ID Conditional Access, transferring limited partner and deal files from an unencrypted shared drive to a CMMC-compliant SharePoint environment featuring sensitivity labels and role-based access controls, rolling out enterprise endpoint detection and response (EDR) across all devices, substituting the outdated VPN system with zero-trust network access (ZTNA), and enhancing email security with protections against BEC and phishing attacks. Additionally, we developed a comprehensive written information security policy (WISP), crafted a SEC-examination-ready incident response and disclosure plan (IRP), established a third-party vendor risk management framework, and provided cybersecurity awareness training for all 68 staff members, which was also reviewed by an external compliance counsel. As a result, the firm entered the SEC exam cycle without any critical vulnerabilities, possessing complete documentation and continuous 24/7 SOC monitoring, which led to no regulatory fines or actions from the SEC post-remediation. Advanced Networks offers managed IT services, cybersecurity solutions, SEC compliance assistance, and IT infrastructure management for financial services firms, private equity funds, RIAs, and professional service organizations throughout Los Angeles, Century City, Beverly Hills, and Orange County, CA.

HIPAA Compliance Project for Healthcare: Cybersecu

Unknown

**Project Overview** A well-established hospital in Los Angeles collaborated with our team to enhance its IT infrastructure, bolster cybersecurity, and ensure continual adherence to HIPAA compliance standards. Although the hospital had a competent environment and an internal IT team, the leadership sought a more proactive, security-centric strategy to safeguard patient data and facilitate sustainable growth. **Challenges** The hospital confronted rising cybersecurity threats typical in the healthcare sector, including risks associated with ransomware and phishing. Moreover, there were shortcomings in centralized visibility across various systems, users, and endpoints. While compliance processes were in place, they needed stronger documentation, ongoing validation, and better audit preparedness. Additionally, backup and disaster recovery systems required further testing and optimization to align with contemporary standards. **Solution** We instituted a co-managed IT and cybersecurity approach tailored for healthcare settings. This encompassed a comprehensive HIPAA risk assessment and remediation strategy, the implementation of advanced endpoint detection and response services with 24/7 monitoring, and security enhancements for Microsoft 365 through multi-factor authentication and conditional access. Network security was improved via firewall optimization and segmentation, and backup and disaster recovery systems were assessed and validated to ensure dependable and secure data protection. We also introduced centralized monitoring and logging to boost visibility and response times, all while causing minimal disruption to hospital operations. **Results** The hospital attained a more robust HIPAA compliance stance with enhanced documentation and audit preparedness. Cybersecurity defenses were significantly strengthened, lowering the risk of ransomware and other threats. System visibility improved, facilitating quicker issue identification and response. Backup and disaster recovery capabilities were fortified to ensure business continuity. Overall, IT performance and support responsiveness saw considerable improvement, fostering a more secure and efficient environment.
