Practical Assurance is a small IT services and consulting firm based in Boston, Massachusetts, that specializes in information-security compliance. It assists organizations of varying sizes in building and sustaining compliant security programs by providing advisory support and practical tools to develop a compliance strategy and roadmap. The firm pursues objective guidance, distinct from traditional audit firms, and emphasizes embedding compliance into an organization's culture to support long-term value. Its clients range from startups to larger enterprises seeking to meet multiple information-security standards and regulatory requirements. The company positions itself in the IT services and consulting space by offering advisory services that focus on maximizing value from compliance, rather than delivering cookie-cutter audits. A notable historical development is the 2017 launch of the ICO Information Security Framework to assist issuers of token sales in improving information-security practices.
