IT Compliance
Software has become integral to the operation of many companies. As such, it is imperative that the data within those systems is secure and the handling and processing of the data is accurate. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 was enacted in response to a number of major corporate and accounting scandals relating to the manipulation of data to cover up the misuse and misappropriation of funds. More recently, PCI Compliance requirements now being enforced by the major credit card companies is focusing on securing credit card information housed and transmitted between systems.
