Published in 2015, NIST
Special Publication 800-171: Protecting Controlled Unclassified Information in Nonfederal Information Systems and Organizations, applies to components of non-federal information systems and organizations that process, store or transmit CUI, or provide security protection for these components.

We understand that it’s absolutely essential for our customers to know that DriveSavers can protect the integrity of their data,” explained Michael Hall, chief information security officer, DriveSavers. “Each year, DriveSavers undergoes an annual SOC 2 Type II audit of internal data hosting and process controls to guarantee our data recovery services uphold the stringent data security and privacy protocols mandated by the government agencies we serve. All the guidelines outlined in NIST SP 800-171 are covered by this audit.

Over the last 30 years, the company has worked with law enforcement agencies to provide legally defensible investigations and reports, and has experience understanding and interpreting data from all types of digital devices and OSs.

The firm is the only data recovery service provider in the industry to post proof that it undergoes an annual SOC 2 Type II audit, which qualifies their security practices to handle enterprise recoveries and support those customers who must maintain compliance with data privacy and data security regulations including:

  • NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) SP 800-171

  • NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) SP 800.34 (Rev.1)

  • HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act)

  • FERPA (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act)

  • SOX (Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002)

  • GLBA (Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999)

Not only is security compliance essential for enterprise multi-drive devices like RAID, NAS and SAN devices, but for all storage devices. That includes smartphones.

The smartphone ubiquity in today’s world means that they’re increasingly part of government and law enforcement investigations,” explained Rene Novoa, manager, eDiscovery and digital forensics, DriveSavers and VP, HTCIA Bay Area Chapter (BAC). “As government agencies look to cyber security and DFIR professionals to help with their investigations, strong security measures are essential.
