More on specific compliance standards:
FFIEC Compliance Solution Overview
The Federal Financial Institution Examination Council (FFIEC) guidelines require online banks to adopt a variety of multifactor authentication measures to secure online access to account information and transaction functionality.
Arcot’s FFIEC solutions include RiskFort Web fraud detection and WebFort versatile authentication. You can also use the Arcot A-OK for Enterprise service to avoid having to build an authentication infrastructure on-site.
SAFE BioPharma Compliance Overview The SAFE (Signatures and Authentication for Everyone) initiative in the biopharmaceutical industry created a digital identity standard to allow companies to meet Federal requirements for signing electronic documents. The SAFE digital signature standard gives companies the ability to sign electronic documents in a tamperproof and legally enforceable way. The result is significant time savings in the approval process.
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) agreed to accept digital signatures for drug approval submissions. Arcot's strong authentication and digital signing technologies help you to implement the SAFE standards for digitally-signed electronic drug approval submissions to the FDA.
| “This is a significant achievement for AstraZeneca,” said Joe Waldron, Executive Director of US Drug Development Information Systems for AstraZeneca. “Digitally signed submissions will result in time efficiencies for us and for the FDA, and allow for earlier access to AstraZeneca submissions by the FDA Review Division.” |
The ease of digitally signing and electronically submitting drug approval documents can significantly accelerate a pharmaceutical company’s go-to-market process and reduce drug development costs. You can now enable digital signing in your extended network of partners, providers, investigators, and patients.
