MIDAOPS01-BP01 Implement a process to periodically review compliance requirements relevant to your industrial data infrastructure
Implement a process to periodically review compliance requirements relevant to your industrial data infrastructure. Regular assessment of compliance requirements is crucial for manufacturing environments where industrial data is subject to various regulations such as GDPR, HIPAA, ISO 27001, or industry-specific standards. Establish a systematic review process to verify ongoing compliance and adapt to changing requirements.
Desired outcome: Maintain a clear understanding of applicable compliance requirements and verify that your industrial data infrastructure remains compliant through regular assessments and updates. Identify gaps in compliance and implement necessary changes promptly.
Benefits of establishing this best practice: Adopting the best practice and prescriptive guidance helps you align with industry standards while reducing the risk of non-compliance penalties and regulatory issue. This enables proactive rather than reactive compliance management and simplifies auditing processes.
Level of risk exposed if this best practice is not established: High
Implementation guidance
Create a comprehensive compliance review framework for regular assessments, documentation, and updates to your industrial data infrastructure.
Implementation steps
-
AWS Config Rule implementation: Create custom compliance rules in AWS Config to automatically evaluate your resources against industry standards. AWS Config maintains a detailed inventory of your AWS resource configurations and continuously checks for compliance violations.
-
Security Hub CSPM integration: Enable AWS Security Hub CSPM with industry-specific security standards (CIS, PCI DSS, HIPAA). Security Hub CSPM automatically assesses your security status and aggregates alerts across integrated services.
-
Audit management: Use AWS Audit Manager to automate evidence collection and continuously audit your AWS usage. Create assessment templates mapped to your compliance frameworks and schedule regular assessments.
-
Automated monitoring: Configure Amazon EventBridge rules to run Lambda functions for compliance checks. Set up notifications through Amazon SNS when compliance issues are detected.
