Introduction
This white paper is directed at CFO’s, CIO’s, CISO’s, and Corporate Risk and Compliance Officers (CRCO’s) focused on achieving compliance with a variety of regulations and laws.
The paper focuses on the role of Information Security as a key general control for compliance certification for virtually all business processes.
Regulatory Compliance – Striving to win the Race
A tremendous struggle is underway in most organizations as they try to find a balance in their corporate governance between effective business process controls and meeting
compliance deadlines while at the same time empowering users to do their work and flex the organization’s information resource muscle.
For reasons defined below, this is a battle that can prove very difficult to win. We identify the causal factors that stand in the way of effective information security governance and regulatory compliance, and offer a solution from IPLocks that can help you achieve compliance on time, at lower cost and with high business value. Further, this document may provide the executive with an understanding of the conditions that may impede compliance efforts. Such an understanding can be instrumental in shaping compliance strategy and problem resolution.
With deadlines rapidly approaching, CxO’s are responding to extreme pressure to achieve compliance across a broad landscape of government regulations, both national and international, and local laws. Compounding the regulatory and legal demands is the compelling goal to drive value out of the compliance investment so businesses can realize benefits beyond improvements in controls. At the same time, practical realities are setting in about the state of business process controls and the complexity of mitigation. Information security is one of the most difficult elements of corporate governance to implement or re-engineer. IPLocks offers an alternative and potentially faster and lower-cost path to effective information security governance.
