MetaCompliance
En route to a Safer Digital World

The world today is driven digitally, and almost all processes, be it complex or simple, can be carried out online. Transactions, messages, data transfers are just a few examples that have shifted the trend towards digital methods in recent times. However, with the boost in online activity, there has been a significant increase in cybercrime. Phishing, ransomware attacks, and insider threats have been a bothersome plague for companies, as employees are targeted regularly to obtain crucial data or trade secrets. A grim statistic put forward from Norton, one of the leading cybersecurity companies, states that 96 percent of data breaches originate from emails. Thus, it is evident that cyber awareness needs to be driven worldwide to thwart this worldwide menace interactively. Stepping up to accomplish this herculean task is MetaCompliance, a company proficient in mitigating the risk of hacking and compliance issues by providing e-trainings, policy management software, and other guidelines pertaining to cyber-security. Along with its vast library of e-learning modules, the company’s platforms—MyCompliance and MetaPhish—ensure security awareness for the users and reduce vulnerability against cybercrime with almost immediate results.

“Our SaaS-based MyCompliance platform has a fully integrated suite of compliance capabilities that includes policy management, e-learning, simulated phishing, privacy, and incident management,” says Robert O’Brien, the CEO of the company. With the ability to develop custom training, MetaCompliance delivers a high-quality user experience profile through its easily digestible modules for on-site employees, executives, and work from home employees. Its MetaPhish solution creates life-like phishing simulations by using its extensive range of phishing templates or by modifying the templates based on the sector to make the experience as relatable as possible.

Also, to assist its clients in managing data protection processes and assets, MetaCompliance’s MetaPrivacy solution automates the population of data registers, provides easy-to-use management dashboards, and ensures organizational readiness for GDPR.

Additionally, the company offers robust policy management software that reduces expenditure, improves adoption, and tracks any situation that can pose a risk to the clients’ deliverables.

MetaCompliance’s collaboration with a Manchester-based university stands as a testimony to its abilities in providing effective e-learning modules on cybersecurity awareness. As educational institutions hold sensitive information such as personal data, alumni donations, and other intellectual properties, they have become a hotbed for cybercrimes. Thus, the institution wanted a reliable partner to educate employees on cyber-risk mitigation, raise awareness on the compliance aspect of records management, and promote cost-savings. The client joined hands with MetaCompliance to create a targeted e-learning series that included bite-sized nano videos, interactive materials, and quizzes that can be deployed individually or combined into a larger course. The client can now build custom courses on enhancing cybersecurity awareness, tailored for specific audiences and their requirements.

Further demonstrating the reliability and robustness of the company’s value proposition is its partnership with a client involved in the oil and gas industry. The company was marred with rampant cyberattacks that impacted its production goals and made its data quite vulnerable. To combat such threats and raise awareness on cybersecurity, the client implemented MetaCompliance’s MyCompliance platform that educated the employees on detecting phishing threats and ensured that its compliance policies are up-to-date. All in all, the platform played a key role in instilling a culture of awareness against cyber risks and improved performance against hackers and other threat actors.

Building on such successes, the company will continue to raise the bar for policy management and conduct cybersecurity awareness trainings effectively. To realise its aspirations of a threat-free digital world, MetaCompliance will continue to provide highly interactive modules, while consistently improving them as per the necessities of its clients.
