Why Compliance-Focused Businesses Choose My Tampa IT
In a world where data breaches and cyber-attacks make headlines, compliance isn’t just a legal requirement—it’s a cornerstone of trust.
At My Tampa IT, we specialize in guiding your business through the maze of regulations and standards. Plus, we offer comprehensive Cybersecurity Risk Assessments, which are required in some industries. Our mission is to keep you not only compliant but also one step ahead of potential threats.
Why is Compliance More Critical Now Than Ever?
Government agencies are getting serious about organizations handling Personally Identifiable Information (PII). With increasing threats to cybersecurity, they’re leaving no room for lapses. Compliance today is more than just ticking boxes; it’s about being a responsible guardian of sensitive consumer and patient data.

Regulatory penalties can set you back financially and tarnish your reputation.

Meeting compliance standards ensures that you’re well-prepared for external audits.
Competitive Advantage
A robust compliance posture can give you an edge in the market.
We Help You Navigate Compliance
FTC Safeguards Rule for Financial Services
Financial data is a goldmine for cybercriminals. The Federal Trade Commission’s Safeguards Rule aims to protect the integrity and security of consumer information held by financial institutions. My Tampa IT offers comprehensive services to keep your financial data under lock and key.
HIPAA Compliance for Healthcare Providers
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) outlines stringent measures for securing medical records and reporting breaches. If you’re in healthcare, we can help you implement the controls needed to protect patient data from unauthorized access.
NIST Compliance for Business
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) provides a framework for improving critical infrastructure cybersecurity. My Tampa IT can assist in aligning your cybersecurity strategies with NIST guidelines for better resilience and risk management.
Cyber Insurance Applications
Navigating cyber insurance applications involves answering complex technical questions and completing lengthy applications. My Tampa IT helps with this by assessing your current security posture and bolstering cybersecurity measures to position you for favorable premiums and a policy tailored to your unique cyber risk landscape. Plus, we assist you in answering the questions accurately, to ensure you get paid in the event of a breach.
The Rising Threat Landscape
What Is Ransomware?
Ransomware is a form of malware that encrypts your files, demanding payment for their release. Your data is held ransom.
Not only does it jeopardize your business operations, but it also puts your clients’ sensitive data at risk because if you refuse to pay, cybercriminals threaten to release the data publicly, or sell it on the dark web.
Why have Cybercriminals Shifted Their Focus to SMBs?
As larger corporations bolster their cybersecurity frameworks, attackers are setting their sights on Small and Medium-sized Businesses (SMBs). At My Tampa IT, we believe that strong cybersecurity isn’t a privilege reserved for big players—it’s a right that enables every business to grow and thrive.
