Trusted Partner Network

Tekmocracy offers specialized Trusted Partner Network (TPN) readiness and support services to help media and entertainment vendors meet the rigorous security standards required by content owners and studios.

Whether you're a post-production house, VFX studio, or SaaS platform serving the entertainment industry, we help you navigate the TPN assessment process with clarity and confidence—from preparation to remediation and beyond.

Our services are built to support small and mid-sized vendors that need expert guidance without the cost of a full-time compliance team. We provide hands-on support to identify gaps, implement secure practices, and achieve or maintain TPN compliance, ensuring your environment is trusted, resilient, and audit-ready.

We conduct a detailed assessment of your current security controls, policies, and infrastructure against TPN’s content security best practices. This evaluation identifies where you stand and what needs improvement before engaging a TPN assessor.

• Review of physical, digital, and cloud environments
   
• Evaluation of access controls, endpoint protection, and audit trails
   
• Identification of high-risk areas needing remediation
   

Our experts perform a structured gap analysis to map deficiencies against TPN requirements. We then develop a clear, prioritized remediation roadmap to help you close security gaps efficiently.

• Customized gap reports with actionable recommendations
   
• Timeline and resource planning to align with production schedules
   
• Practical guidance tailored to small and mid-sized teams
   

If you're missing documentation or need help formalizing your security protocols, we’ll work with you to draft or revise essential policies aligned with TPN and industry expectations.

• Creation or improvement of security policies, SOPs, and user agreements
   
• Assistance with access control, incident response, and media handling procedures
   
• Templates and documentation built to pass audit scrutiny
   

We support you through every phase of the assessment process. From scheduling with a TPN-approved assessor to answering pre-assessment questions, we act as your internal compliance partner.

• Pre-audit preparation and mock interviews
   
• Direct support during onsite or remote assessments
   
• Communication liaison between you and the assessor
   

Once your assessment is complete, we help interpret the assessor’s findings, implement required changes, and prepare any follow-up documentation or evidence of remediation.

• Clear explanation of assessment findings and severity levels
   
• Remediation support with technical or policy-based requirements
   
• Submission prep for re-assessment or validation reviews
   

Security isn’t one-and-done. We provide ongoing advisory services to help you maintain your TPN standing, stay current with evolving security practices, and prep for future assessments.

• Annual internal reviews and re-baselining
   
• Proactive alerts for emerging risks and industry updates
   
• Guidance on scaling security as your business grows
