CampusGuard Auditor Profile

CampusGuard is a cybersecurity and compliance firm founded in 2009, based in Nebraska, that focuses on campus and community-based organizations: higher education institutions, healthcare systems, state and local government agencies, financial services firms, and SaaS companies. Its distinguishing trait is depth in complex, decentralized environments — a university with hundreds of merchant accounts looks very different from a single-entity merchant.

The firm is certified by the PCI Security Standards Council as both a Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) company and an Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV), and it is notable as the only QSA firm solely focused on the campus-based community. Alongside PCI DSS, CampusGuard assists organizations with HIPAA compliance, security awareness training, and vulnerability management, supported by its compliance management portal.

CampusGuard serves more than 450 colleges and universities, making it a natural fit for treasurers and IT security teams in education and the public sector.
