National Institute of Standards and Technology

NIST is a government agency that develops technology, metrics, and standards to drive innovation in science and technology.

Compliance and Standards

NIST creates the standards and guidelines to help federal agencies meet the requirements of the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA). Compliance with NIST standards and guidelines has become a top priority in many high-tech industries today. NIST helps to identify and prioritize a company’s cyber assets, risk thresholds, and optimal monitoring frequency.

NIST SP 800 Series

NIST also provides guidelines and recommendations through its Special Publications (SP) 800-series. NIST Compliance is based on best practices from several security documents, organizations, and publications, that are created as a framework for federal agencies and programs requiring strict security measures. NIST helps to ensure your organization’s infrastructure and data are secure.

Security Oriented

Our company is security oriented with all technicians required to pass annual background checks and maintain HIPAA certifications. Every backup we setup is encrypted, both locally and in the cloud. We help our clients incorporate safe practices within their business by providing Acceptable Use Policy (AUPs) templates. Also, we educate clients on why such measures are needed to keep them (and their business) safe.

Dedicated Professionals

All our clients not only receive support from an entire team of professionals but also their own “Account Manager”. This person is their direct contact for special requests, questions, and projects. Our focus is quality support with a personal touch.

Rapid Response

Stop waiting days (or even weeks) to get in touch with someone. We are available during normal business hours or on call for emergency service if needed. Our team consists of all local technicians in the US, so no more calls overseas. We can solve your issues remotely, over the phone, or onsite.

I want to take this opportunity to thank IT Support RI for allowing Leo and JT to work with me on the NIST/CMMC project. They have done yeoman’s work and have been an invaluable asset to this project… not even mentioning the burden they have taken off of my shoulders. Yesterday’s 8-hour NIST Assessment audit was a good example of their professionalism, expertise, tireless efforts, and focus on “what’s best for the customer”.  The auditor has mentioned to me, on a few occasions, how impressed he is with “my team” (which includes Leo and JT), how knowledgeable my team is regarding the new cybersecurity protocols and government flow down requirements, and how far ahead we are of our competition.

 I hope the work done on this project provides an opportunity for IT Support RI to grow its own customer base, as they are becoming true experts in this growing cybersecurity space.

President, Precision Engineering Inc.

Since IT Support RI has taken over as our IT Department, we have gone from needing someone here all week to now only one day a week. Even if a project or emergency comes up unexpectedly, we can quickly call a tech onsite (or handle remotely) to deal with our issues. They continue to steer our tech needs in the right direction and guide us towards the best solutions available. I highly recommend IT Support RI services and IT help.
