Transcription Services on a One of a Kind Security Platform
Because of tightened federal IT restrictions, agencies are no longer allowed to electronically transmit sensitive data to commercial transcription companies. This has severely delayed the federal legal and medical case systems. STARS, our secure computer system, patented web portal, and cleared staff are the first in the transcription industry to achieve full compliance and we stand ready to resolve the government’s growing backlog.
All our work is processed on STARS from within a federally approved 24-hour facility. Because of this unique IT infrastructure, LegaLock is the only commercial transcription company that can provide this combination of services and security protections:
- Compliance with the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA)
- Compliance with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 880-Series standards,
- Compliance with the DOD Information Assurance Certification (DIACAP)
- Compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPPA)
- Authorization to process sensitive but unclassified (SBU) government data,
- Compliance with the President’s Office of Management and Budget memorandum 06-16, entitled “Protection of Sensitive Agency Information” and known as “the remote access mandate”,
- Protection with Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 encryption software,
- Secure connection with RSA tokens for two-factor authentication and a virtual private network (VPN),
- Company servers reside in a 24/7 secure facility approved with a federal Authority to Operate (ATO) and staffed with a federally cleared personnel,
- Clients send and receive jobs electronically through a patented, secure web portal, or through phone dictation,
- 24-Hour Service,
- Transcribers with a minimum of 10 years experience, and
