Compliant Security Integration
Secure and Compliant...from the
Desktop to the Door


Compliant Security Integration
CSI®

IS3, Inc. has developed a program that outlines the processes necessary to map critical data and business
processes to services and assets to provide an integrated view of security assurance and guide clients in
making better security investment decisions. In addition, this process will assist the client in aligning their
critical data and business processes to the appropriate regulatory compliance policies and procedures and
develop a consistent, proactive security-monitoring environment. This program is called Compliant Security
Integration (CSI®).

The main focus of CSI® is to develop a program that integrates the various security policies and procedures,
technology and regulatory requirements into one cohesive program that allows the client to focus on their day
to day business processes with the assurance that security has been seamlessly integrated within their
organization and is consistently improving regardless of how volatile the environment may be.

IS3 Partners with…

IS3 has partnered with Modulo Security the Latin American market leader in Information Security to become a
value-added reseller and U.S. Consulting Arm for their proprietary Security Risk Manager. Its exclusive solutions
use PESI® - an ISO 9001-certified methodology conforming to the ISO/IEC 17799 standard.

 MÓDULO's continuous concern with excellence in quality standards has resulted in three important achievements.
First, it became Latin America's pioneer company to obtain the BS 7799 certification - the International Information
Security Management standard. It also received certification for ISO 9001, and has been re-certified since 1998.

 Second, was the launch of Security Risk Manager, a software program for risk assessment, compliance and
Knowledge Management System. Modulo Security Lab, one of the most complete IT laboratories in Brazil, provides
support in technology research and updates the information security knowledge-base used by Security Risk
Manager. The company also has an Education Center specialized in training and certifying information security
managers.

 And most recently, Modulo has become the first information security company in the world to achieve the ISO
27001 certification. ISO 27001 is the first international information security certification standard and an evolution
on British Standard BS 7799-2. It addresses the definition of requirements for implementation of an Information
Security Management System - ISMS. The standard was adopted in October 2005 by the International Organization
for Standardization (ISO), which handles international certification standards. Modulo Security achieved this
certification in record time thanks to the use of Security Risk Manager.
