TU Compliance · Massachusetts WISP
Your Massachusetts WISP, built right and kept audit-ready.
If your business handles personal information about Massachusetts residents, state law (201 CMR 17.00) requires a Written Information Security Program. We build yours, document it, and keep it current — so you're covered for regulators, clients, and cyber-insurance.
A WISP isn't optional in Massachusetts.
201 CMR 17.00 requires every business that owns or licenses personal information about a Massachusetts resident to maintain a written, comprehensive information security program. Most businesses either don't have one — or have a generic template that won't survive scrutiny.
Regulators expect it
In an audit or after an incident, "we meant to" isn't a defense. A missing or generic WISP is a finding — and can carry penalties.
Clients & insurers ask for it
Contracts and cyber-insurance applications increasingly require proof of a real security program. No WISP can cost you the deal or the policy.
A breach makes it urgent
After a data incident is the worst time to discover your safeguards were never documented. Your WISP is what shows you did the right things.
What we build for you
Not a fill-in-the-blank template. A written program mapped to 201 CMR 17.00 (and the FTC Safeguards Rule where it applies), specific to how your business actually handles data.
✓Data & risk assessment
We map what personal information you hold, where it lives, and where it's exposed.
✓Your written WISP
Administrative, technical, and physical safeguards documented and tailored to your business.
✓Policies & training
Employee policies and clear guidance so your team knows their responsibilities.
✓Incident response plan
A documented plan for what to do if something goes wrong — before it does.
✓Audit-ready evidence
The documentation regulators, clients, and insurers ask for, ready when you need it.
✓Ongoing updates
Your WISP stays current as your systems, staff, and risks change — not frozen in time.

WISP questions, answered plainly
Do I actually need a WISP?
If your business owns or licenses personal information about a Massachusetts resident — customers or employees — then yes, 201 CMR 17.00 applies to you, regardless of your size or industry.
Isn't a downloaded template enough?
No. The law requires a program that reflects your actual operations and is maintained over time. A generic template that doesn't match how you work won't hold up in an audit or after a breach.
How much does it cost?
WISP plans start at $500. We confirm the exact scope on a short consultation so the price fits your business — no open-ended hourly billing.
What happens on the consultation?
A short call to understand your business and the data you handle, so we can scope your WISP and the next steps. No obligation.
