IT Compliance

Compliance isn't a checkbox — it's a competitive advantage. Houston businesses that can demonstrate HIPAA, SOC 2, CMMC, or PCI-DSS compliance win contracts, satisfy regulators, and build trust with clients who won't work with non-compliant vendors. LayerLogix provides end-to-end compliance services: gap assessment, technical control implementation, policy development, employee training, and ongoing management across every major framework. One partner, all your compliance needs.

What We Offer

Comprehensive solutions tailored for Houston-area businesses

HIPAA Compliance

Complete HIPAA compliance for healthcare organizations — risk assessments, technical safeguards, administrative policies, BAA management, breach notification procedures, and ongoing monitoring. We serve TMC-affiliated practices, multi-location clinics, and healthcare businesses across Greater Houston.

SOC 2 Readiness & Support

SOC 2 Type I and Type II readiness assessments for technology companies and service providers. We identify control gaps, implement technical and administrative controls, prepare your evidence package, and support you through the audit process. Essential for winning enterprise deals.

CMMC 2.0 Compliance

Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification for defense contractors and DoD supply chain companies. We assess your current posture against CMMC Level 1-3 requirements, build your System Security Plan (SSP), implement required controls, and prepare you for third-party assessment.

NIST Framework Implementation

NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) and NIST 800-171 implementation for organizations that need a structured, recognized security framework. We map your current controls to NIST, identify gaps, and implement improvements across Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover.

PCI-DSS Compliance

Payment Card Industry compliance for businesses that process, store, or transmit cardholder data. Network segmentation, encryption, access controls, vulnerability scanning, and penetration testing aligned with PCI-DSS requirements. We handle the technical controls; you focus on business.

ITAR Compliance IT

International Traffic in Arms Regulations compliance for defense and aerospace companies. Access controls for ITAR-restricted data, encrypted storage and transmission, audit logging, and personnel screening support. Critical for Houston's defense manufacturing and energy sectors.

Why Choose LayerLogix?

Serving businesses throughout the Greater Houston area including Houston, The Woodlands, Spring, Katy, Sugar Land, Conroe, Pearland, Dallas, Austin.

One Partner for All Frameworks

Instead of hiring separate consultants for HIPAA, SOC 2, CMMC, and PCI-DSS, LayerLogix handles all compliance frameworks through a unified approach. Controls overlap significantly — implementing once for multiple frameworks saves time and money.

Technical + Administrative Coverage

Compliance isn't just policy documents. We implement the actual technical controls — encryption, access management, logging, monitoring, and incident response — alongside the policies, procedures, and training that auditors require.

Audit-Ready Documentation

When the auditor arrives, your evidence package is already organized. System Security Plans, risk assessments, control matrices, incident response plans, training records, and technical evidence — documented, timestamped, and readily accessible.

Ongoing Compliance Management

Compliance is not a one-time project. Regulations evolve, systems change, and new risks emerge. We provide continuous monitoring, annual reassessments, and policy updates to keep you compliant between audit cycles.

Win Contracts That Require Compliance

Enterprise clients, government agencies, and healthcare systems increasingly require vendors to demonstrate HIPAA, SOC 2, or CMMC compliance. Having these certifications and assessments opens doors to contracts your competitors can't bid on.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which compliance framework do we need?
It depends on your industry and clients. Healthcare → HIPAA. Defense contractors → CMMC. Technology vendors selling to enterprise → SOC 2. Retail/e-commerce → PCI-DSS. Aerospace/defense manufacturing → ITAR. Many Houston businesses need multiple frameworks — we help you identify which ones apply and prioritize implementation.
How long does compliance take?
Initial compliance readiness typically takes 3-6 months depending on the framework and your starting point. HIPAA risk assessment and remediation: 2-4 months. SOC 2 Type I readiness: 3-6 months. CMMC Level 2 preparation: 4-8 months. We accelerate timelines by leveraging control overlap across frameworks.
Do you perform the actual audit?
No — compliance audits must be performed by independent third-party assessors. We prepare you for the audit: implementing controls, organizing evidence, conducting pre-audit reviews, and supporting you through the assessment process. We work with several reputable audit firms and can recommend assessors for your specific framework.
What if we fail an audit?
A pre-audit gap assessment significantly reduces this risk. If gaps are found during the audit, we immediately prioritize remediation. Most frameworks allow corrective action plans (CAPs) — documented plans to address gaps within a defined timeline. We help you build and execute the CAP to achieve compliance.
How much does compliance cost?
Costs vary by framework and scope. As a general range: HIPAA compliance program: $15K-$40K initial + ongoing management. SOC 2 readiness: $25K-$75K + audit fees. CMMC preparation: $30K-$100K depending on level. These investments are significantly less than the cost of a compliance violation, a failed audit, or a lost contract.
