Case Study: Altarum Institute achieves NIST compliance and stronger security posture with Optiv

Altarum Institute maintains 100% NIST compliance with Optiv

Altarum Institute, a non-profit health systems research and consulting organization, needed an external vendor to conduct its annual security risk assessment. Their challenge was to improve their security posture beyond minimum NIST and CMMI requirements through a seamless and cost-effective engagement. After evaluating several proposals, Altarum chose Optiv Security for its expertise in conducting this assessment.

Optiv conducted a comprehensive assessment of Altarum's infrastructure, policies, and documentation utilizing NIST guidelines. The solution provided verification of NIST compliance, met the highest level of CMMI maturity, and identified opportunities for further controls. This gave Altarum confidence in the partnership and validated for its clients that it has the infrastructure and controls in place to secure entrusted data.
