Regional Compliance Needs

Different Markets, Different Security Requirements

Across the Americas, compliance varies by jurisdiction, industry, organizational role, and where data is processed. The same onboarding, payment, or workforce journey may trigger different obligations across Canada, the U.S., and Latin America, requiring a shared security foundation that can adapt by market.

Entrust maps those needs to concrete product areas: identity verification for KYC and KYE; authentication to help reduce account-takeover risk; FIPS 140-3-validated nShield HSMs and key management for sensitive data; PKI and certificate lifecycle management for trusted digital services; and issuance for payment, workforce, and government credentials. For organizations in the Americas that also operate in Europe, eIDAS and ETSI can add another layer of identity and trust requirements.
