SOX Regulations
SOX Compliance and Financial Reporting
SOX compliance refers to annual audits to show evidence of accurate, secured financial reporting. Although Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) does not call out any specific IT requirements, the law does impact the controls for information systems because financial information covered under the law is processed and stored by IT systems. SecurEnds GRC can reduce the costly implications to establish, maintain, and validate the required internal controls.
