Compliance & Audit

Lumen knows that maintaining proper security and compliance programs is critical to supporting and protecting our customers, meeting their compliance requirements, and meeting regulatory compliance and standards. We partner with external auditors to perform an assortment of annual assessments which provides our customers with confidence in our security through attestations and certifications that meet stringent security and regulatory requirements.

There is no official federal certification required to prove an organization is HIPAA compliant. Lumen‑covered entities and business associates can self‑certify their compliance, which means certifying that they comply with HIPAA regulations.

Lumen uses an external auditor to perform an assessment and evaluate our HIPAA compliance on certain products and services. The assessment was performed against the HIPAA Security Rules and Breach Notification requirements.

Lumen provides services to many level 1 and level 2 merchants, credit card processing companies and other parties who must demonstrate PCI compliance in environments that utilize Lumen services. Our customers have used third‑party qualified security assessors (QSAs) to examine their PCI compliance leveraging Lumen services. These QSAs, in turn, have submitted Reports on Compliance (ROCs) that attest to our customers' adherence to the PCI‑DSS. Customers leveraging our existing certifications will benefit by reducing the duration and cost of their PCI audits.

Lumen utilizes and provides a standard response tool known as the Standardized Information Gathering (SIG) tool. The SIG questionnaire is a compilation of answers to industry information security questions which provide an insight as to how information technology and data security risks are managed across a broad spectrum of risk control areas within Lumen. As such, it addresses risk controls across 16 different risk areas. The robust set of questions contained in the SIG is reviewed and updated annually. Updates and revisions are based on referenced industry standards (FFIEC, ISO, COBIT, and PCI). New risk areas are added on a regular basis, with cloud services and mobile device security as examples of some of the more recent additions.
