# Standards Overview

Standards

```
The Standards Module is currently only available to Professional and Enterprise Tiers. Please contact your Customer Success Manager (CSM) to discuss, if needed.
```

 

The Standards module offers **Real-Time** and **Snapshot Reporting** that displays information related to different Standards being tracked in The Guard. A Standard is the set of guidelines, criteria, or rules that Organizations or individuals must adhere to in order to meet certain regulatory requirements or industry best practices. A Standard is *HIPAA, OSHA, SOC 2, etc*. 

 

The Real-Time reporting in the Standards module will display Tiles related to the different standards and related Programs. For example, HIPAA contains the Privacy, Breach, Physical Safeguards, and Data Security programs; SOC2 contains the Data Security program. If an Organization is tracking both standards, then the Organization only needs 1 Data Security Program, but the completed aspects of this program will reflect for both HIPAA and SOC2. 

 

To create Real-Time a Standard Report(s): 

1. Navigate to **Standards**
2. Select **Create Report**
3. Choose Report Type **Real-Time**
4. Choose the **Standard**, and choose the Programs you would like included in the report.
5. Select **Save**

Once created - each tile will be displayed and identified separately, as well as provide a summary of relevant programs. Selecting View will display more information related to the Standard and Associated Programs.

Graphs

 

The graphs displayed will show: Total Completion Progress, Associated Program Progress, and Critical Standards Progress

- Total Completion Progress – This graph displays the Total Number of Controls across ALL Programs for the Standard and related status
- Associated Program Progress – Displays the percentage of completion for each associated Program (Breach, Privacy, Data Security, Physical Safeguards)
- Critical Standards – Displays the total number and completion of Critical Standards
  
    - Critical Standards are identified by a STAR next to the name of the Standard

 

Breakdown

 

The table located below the graphs will display all of the Standards and Standard Codes and their current status, as well as Last Updated Date and Evidence, if attached. A **Team** member may then select each individual Standard Code to display additional details regarding the Associated Controls and information. 

 

The Standards module does not allow editing the Standard information. Any changes to the Associated Controls (Status, Evidence, Tags, etc) must be done in the Programs module.
