Compliance
Re-engineering your workloads for compliance
When you need to upgrade or create a new cloud infrastructure to meet the necessary legal requirements
For many tech companies today, compliance is a responsibility. Becoming and staying compliant is tricky and overwhelming, especially across multiple jurisdictions.
What is it, exactly? Nuanced and intricate, compliance ties together technical, business, and legal aspects. We relieve you of headaches, slashing through this Gordian knot of complexity.
Beyond necessary user-facing legal disclaimers, this is a technical job. It means a full audit of IT infrastructure, followed by a partial rebuild so that essential data is handled to the standard – the right way.
We know how to develop from scratch or re-engineer cloud infrastructure for compliance: how user data is collected, processed, stored, and protected.
Implementation with us lets you save time and avoid mistakes, granting you confidence that your cloud infrastructure meets industry standards.

Standards that we help comply with: GDPR and HIPAA
At Ohmycloud, we audit whether your cloud infrastructure is compliant and re-engineer the workloads that necessitate it.
We specialize in two compliance standards. If you handle personal data of EU and UK citizens, we facilitate GDPR compliance. For processing personal health information, we help you comply with HIPAA.
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)
HIPAA is a set of standards for handling personal health information (PHI) privately and securely. It was adopted by the US Congress and has become a de-facto worldwide ruleset. Adhering to HIPAA is recommended for companies that handle health-related data in any country.
The risks of HIPAA violation and mishandling PHI include fines, imprisonment, individual and class litigation, and business-damaging media coverage.
AWS provides services as components, and our skillset is to build a custom solution with these services for a specific business, project, workloads. We know how to take your case through all the stages of HIPAA compliance.
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
Companies collecting and processing personal data in the EU and UK are subject to upholding various privacy and security requirements.
GDPR was created to protect privacy rights. The foundation is that people have the right to see what personal data tech companies have about them and how they’re using it.
An organization should make sure It’s easy for the customers to request, correct, and ask you to stop processing and delete their data.
GDPR transparency and data protection rules require you to conduct an audit to determine what information you process, who has access to it, and how you keep it safe.
Additionally, for GDPR accountability and governance, it’s recommended to designate someone responsible for ensuring GDPR compliance across your organization.
At Ohmycloud, we built numerous compliance implementations and know how to do them for your project.
