HubSpot Compliance Hub: Meet Every Industry Standard Without Breaking a Sweat

Box Connector doesn't just connect your files to HubSpot—it transforms your CRM into a compliance powerhouse. Think of it as your Compliance Hub, built right into your existing HubSpot workflow.

What is Compliance Hub?

Just like HubSpot offers Marketing Hub for inbound marketing, Sales Hub for closing deals, and Service Hub for customer support, Box Connector creates a Compliance Hub that leverages Box's industry-leading certifications to keep you compliant across every regulated industry—without the complexity, cost, or compliance headaches.

Compliance Hub brings all your regulatory requirements together in one unified system. No more juggling multiple platforms, worrying about where sensitive documents live, or scrambling during audits. Your team gets the power of HubSpot's customer platform with the security and compliance controls that regulators demand.

The Problem: HubSpot Is Powerful, But Compliance Is Complex

HubSpot excels at customer relationship management, marketing automation, and sales enablement. But when you're in a regulated industry, you face challenges that go beyond CRM functionality:

• Healthcare providers need HIPAA compliance for Protected Health Information

• Financial services firms require SEC 17a-4 and FINRA-compliant recordkeeping

• Government contractors must meet FedRAMP and ITAR requirements

• SaaS companies need SOC 2 certification to win enterprise deals

• Manufacturing companies handling export control face ITAR restrictions

• Any business with EU customers must comply with GDPR

The stakes are high. HIPAA violations average $10.93 million per breach. SEC fines exceeded $1.8 billion in 2023 for recordkeeping failures alone. RTX Corporation paid $200 million for 750 ITAR violations.

You need HubSpot's power, but you can't compromise on compliance.

The Solution: Compliance Hub Via Box Connector

Box Connector transforms your HubSpot instance into a comprehensive Compliance Hub by seamlessly integrating Box's extensive security certifications directly into your workflows. Here's how it works:

Box handles your regulated data: Box maintains certifications across every major compliance framework—HIPAA, SEC 17a-4, FedRAMP, ITAR, SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, and more. Box's platform is purpose-built for regulated industries with features like immutable retention policies, comprehensive audit trails, AES 256-bit encryption, and customer-managed encryption keys.

How Compliance Hub Works

Think of it as intelligent data architecture, automatically applied:

1. Smart Data Segregation

   • CRM data (contacts, deals, activities, communications) lives in HubSpot

   • Regulated documents (contracts, technical specs, clinical data, financial records) live in Box

   • Box Connector maintains the connection seamlessly

2. Automatic Compliance Controls

   • Classification-based access controls

   • Retention policies that match regulatory requirements

   • Immutable storage for records that can't be altered

   • Comprehensive audit logging for every access event

   • Legal holds for litigation readiness

3. Unified Workflows

   • Access Box documents directly from HubSpot records

   • Route files automatically based on deal stages or ticket status

   • Share documents securely through HubSpot portals

   • Sign agreements with Box Sign (unlimited e-signatures included)

   • Generate compliance reports across both platforms

Why This Matters

Traditional compliance solutions force you to choose between usability and security. Multi-platform approaches create data silos, broken workflows, and frustrated users. Shadow IT emerges when compliance gets too complicated.

Compliance Hub changes the equation:

• No workflow disruption - Teams keep using HubSpot as usual

• Defense in depth - Multiple certified layers of security

• Audit-ready from day one - Comprehensive trails and immutable records

• Scales with your growth - Add certifications as you expand into new markets

• Reduces compliance costs - One integrated solution vs. multiple point products
