GPG13 (UK) Compliance

Compliance mapping using Huntsman^® Protector 360

In Britain, Her Majesty’s Government (HMG) organisations and agencies have strict obligations concerning the safe-keeping of information and the IT security of their systems. These are laid out in the Good Practice Guide No. 13 (GPG13), which contains practical measures to help HMG bodies meet their Information Assurance (IA) and IT security obligations.

This Mapping Guide shows how a holistic SIEM system, Huntsman^® Protector 360, can help HMG organisations meet their obligations for GPG13 and similar protective monitoring guidelines by:

Combining mandated features like security audits, forensic analysis and rule-based intrusion detection with advanced real-time behaviour anomaly detection
Log management, i.e. logging, storing, analysing and reporting on events as they occur
Monitoring and identifying suspicious activity, human or IT, across the whole IT network.

Key terms and topics addressed:

HMG Security Policy Framework (SPF), Memo 22, protective monitoring
Real-time security monitoring for users, network, databases, applications, communications
Behaviour Anomaly Detection, baseline of normal activity, suspicious activity
SIEM, compliance monitoring, IT security policy breaches, IT risk management
Computer forensics analysis, forensic audit, ‘who, what, when and where’ investigations
Data assurance, data security, data integrity, data mining, root cause analysis.
