Enhance Your Security Controls with Certn and Tugboat Logic Integration

All business functions, including talent management and human resources - in an organization will need to undergo a security audit. Whenever that happens, your team needs to be able to collect the right evidence. You have to be able to quickly demonstrate that you have the proper security controls in place to ensure continuous information security (InfoSec) compliance. That isn’t always easy and can wind up taking a lot longer than it should when companies: 

  • Don’t have the experience to know what evidence to collect when
  • Lack the resources to complete the hundreds of hours’ worth of work that dealing with security audits can take each year
  • Are unable to manage the increasing complexity as their businesses grow and their InfoSec programs become more sophisticated 


That’s why it’s essential to integrate your hiring and talent management applications with Tugboat Logic. Integrating Tugboat Logic into your hiring and talent management process allows you to:

  • Automate time-intensive evidence collection tasks 
  • Eliminate the stress of missing an evidence collection interval, ensure that your enterprise apps are configured securely, and 
  • Receive automatic alerts when something needs your attention.


It’s also the best way to automatically map your evidence to all of the security frameworks that matter to you (including ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR, HIPPA, and PCI DSS) and to prove that you have the right security controls in place. 

What Can You Do with Certn and Tugboat Logic Integrations?

On average, Tugboat Logic’s customers can complete their audit 50% faster than organizations that are not using the leading Security Assurance SaaS platform.

Certn and Tugboat Logic Joint Solutions

 

Collecting the right evidence to show that your security controls are in place is the most time-consuming part of any audit project. Tugboat Logic integrating with Certn automates this process, giving your company the confidence of knowing you’ll always have the right data on hand to prove that you perform background and reference checks on all of your new hires and contractors. 

"Through the Certn and Tugboat Logic integration and partnership, our customers can now automatically collect evidence that background checks have been conducted on all new hires. It’s fast, easy, and user-friendly!"  - Chee Tan, VP, Business Development & Channels | Tugboat Logic
