Shifts in the ever-evolving regulatory landscape

Thoropass has seen significant changes in Information Security (infosec) and regulatory compliance over the past five years. During the interview, our co-founder Sam Li, emphasized a notable shift in the awareness and demand for robust cybersecurity programs.

Further, the regulatory environment in the United States has been changing rapidly, with GDPR-like regulations at the federal level and state-specific privacy and cybersecurity laws. Simultaneously, industry self-governance and a focus on best practices have become integral in ensuring data security. This shift towards regulatory compliance has prompted organizations to invest in multiple information standards like SOC 2, ISO 27001, and HITRUST.

Additionally, Sam touched on the impact of emerging technologies like Web 3.0, generative AI, and the significance of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) factors in shaping the regulatory landscape.

Main challenges with traditional audit services

Eva Pittas, our other co-founder present on the show, continued the conversation by shedding light on the inadequacies of traditional audit services and standalone compliance software in the current environment. She highlighted the lack of technological innovation in the audit process. 

Eva emphasized that despite advancements in information security, there has yet to be a corresponding focus on modernizing audit processes. As the bar for regulatory compliance continues to rise, even smaller vendors find themselves subjected to audits. Therefore, the need for innovation in the audit space is more pressing than ever.

How Thoropass is fixing audits with The OrO^TM Way
