Melbourne, Australia & Singapore - November 28, 2023 - Delinea, a leading provider of solutions that seamlessly extend Privileged Access Management (PAM), today announced new comprehensive white papers to help organisations prepare for new and expanded compliance requirements, reaffirming its commitment to extending thought leadership in PAM and empowering organisations with invaluable insights.

IBM reports that the estimated cost of a data breach is approaching US$4.5 million in 2023. To reduce risk, 95% of compliance staff have built or are building a culture of compliance to share the responsibility across their organisation, according to Accenture. Knowing how compliance requirements are evolving and getting ahead of changes coming can potentially reduce the risk of being a cybercrime victim, now or in the future.

In an era where privileged accounts are among the most sought-after targets for cyber threats, Delinea's latest whitepapers offer practical guidance and actionable insights to help organisations bolster their PAM strategies and prepare for an increasing list of compliance requirements, both globally and regionally. Recently published resources complement Delinea's existing cybersecurity thought leadership catalogue of whitepapers, briefs, eBooks, templates and more, reinforcing the company's dedication to providing businesses with the knowledge and tools needed to protect their most sensitive assets.

Hong Kong Monetary Authority Cyber Security Risk Management Guidelines: In parallel with its Cybersecurity Fortification Initiative (CFI), amended in November 2020, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) launched its Enhanced Competency Framework on Cybersecurity (ECF-C), setting standards for cybersecurity practitioners in the Hong Kong banking industry. This whitepaper outlines how PAM solutions can help organisations align with HKMA guidelines to demonstrate security best practices to regulators, auditors, customers and partners.
Australian Essential Eight Compliance: The Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) introduced Essential Eight in 2017, providing a set of mitigation strategies and defensive measures against threats affecting Australian organisations. This resource outlines the requirements of Essential Eight and how PAM solutions help organisations to meet them.
New Zealand Information Security Manual: The New Zealand Information Security Manual (NZISM) is a set of security controls for New Zealand government agencies covering all aspects of cybersecurityaiming to reduce risk and protect sensitive data and systems. This whitepaper shows how PAM best practices align with NZISM requirements to demonstrate compliance.
Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard: PCI DSS aims to safeguard payment data, and the latest revision (PCI DSS v4.0) is heavily focused on Zero Trust best practices like protecting privileged accounts, managing granular privileged access and monitoring privileged user behaviour. This whitepaper examines how changing compliance requirements will impact security strategies, and how PAM best practices help organisations align with PCI-DSS.

Other recent compliance resources from Delinea cover topics including Meeting NIST SP 800-171 Requirements with Delinea, the upcoming Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) regulation for the European Union (EU) financial services sector, and the NIS2 Directive for a high common level of cybersecurity across the EU.
