Cloud Storage Security Announced as Newest Addition to Schellman Alliance Program

Newly formed alliance offers AWS storage data protection and attestation services for regulatory compliance

Schellman, a leading provider of attestation and compliance services and a top 50 CPA firm, and Cloud Storage Security (CSS), a leading cloud storage data security software provider, proudly announce the inclusion of CSS into the Schellman Alliance Program. This inclusion joins the expertise and capabilities of two industry leaders, with the aim of providing clients with streamlined avenues to compliance and audits.

Many frameworks such as HIPAA, PCI DSS, and SOC 2, mandate virus scanning and include data classification standards. Organizations may not realize they have security and privacy compliance gaps when it comes to the data in their cloud storage environment.

Schellman’s extensive experience in audit, attestation, and compliance assessments perfectly complements CSS’s antivirus and data classification solutions. Through this program, clients can benefit from the synergy of the two organizations and offer businesses a way to meet and maintain regulatory compliance through Schellman’s certification services with advanced compliance and audit reporting, while providing access to CSS’s ability to help organizations quickly discover, scan, secure, and report on infected files and sensitive data. These advanced technological solutions can help drive operational excellence, enhanced trust, business continuity, competitive edge, and a secure, forward-looking environment in the client’s respective industries.

“Our partnership with Schellman represents a shared commitment to make it easier for customers to validate and maintain regulatory compliance in cloud storage,” stated Scott Mathewson, Director of Channels at CSS. “CSS is proud to provide malware and sensitive data discovery solutions that customers can use to remediate gaps and noncompliance that Schellman uncovers.”

“We are excited to add Cloud Storage Security into the Schellman Alliance Program. In tandem with CSS, we are building a collaboration that supports our client’s unique compliance journey from secure start to finish. This partnership strengthens our commitment to delivering exceptional quality while continuing to be a firm our clients can trust,” said Michael Parisi, Head of Client Acquisition at Schellman. “This reinforces our commitment to delivering exceptional quality and value while continuing to exceed client expectations.”
