An innovative executive who has been architecting, establishing, operationalizing, and maturing GRC Centers of Excellence since 2002.
Extensive experience using varied frameworks and regulations across industries.
Founder of Klever Compliance, a Compliance as a Management service provider, establishing foundational GRC Competencies regardless of size, industry, and maturity.
Karina Klever is an accomplished Keynote Speaker and GRC Corporate trainer.
Klever Compliance specializes in regulations required for financial services (GLBA, FFIEC, SOX), health companies (insurances, BAAs, pharmaceutical, or other providers adhering to HIPAA), e-comm/retail (PCI), and technology companies.
Klever Compliance also works with frameworks such as ISOx, NIST, SOC2/COSO, ITIL, CIS, HITRUST and others.
Klever Compliance is also on a mission to bring more awareness to the consumer data that companies handle.
Clients are guided to implement enhanced security protections for this type of data, since many clients have data from all around the globe.
Consumer Privacy workflows are established using native client infrastructure to make sure consumer privacy requests are properly fulfilled for US-state specific and other global laws such as GDPR.
Compliance adherence has been accepted as being intimidating and overwhelming - the reality is, it isn't.
This unfortunate acceptance has resulted in excessive breaches, loss of data, and focusing on checkbox compliance approaches opposed to establishing appropriated controls that actually support and secure the infrastructure.
