Businesses today face increasing regulatory compliance challenges. Wide-ranging ramifications and significant overhead expenses to businesses have already resulted from existing regulations, such as Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA and Personal Credit Information. A new and sweeping wave of regulations is in the works with the potential to reshape business policies and practices.
Regulations on the Rise, Requiring IT Resources
While business leaders work to define and redefine policies and practices, it is increasingly falling on IT to maintain oversight and control with technology. Among the important on the list is:
- Protecting: Personal information, especially health and financial
- Preparing: For regulators audits, often involving work-arounds
- Provisioning: Applications and users with the controls
The costs and complexity in accomplishing these tasks are compounded by the fact that many of the systems in use were built prior to the regulations existing retrofit compliance solutions require multiple tools, versions and workarounds to perform simple tasks and users are increasingly mobile and have access from multiple devices and locations.
