Sarbanes-Oxley Security Compliance

What is Sarbanes-Oxley Act?
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) was enacted to increase regulatory visibility and accountability of public companies and their financial health. SOX requires even small companies to comply with regulations dealing with the assessment of internal controls for financial reporting (Section 404). SOX Compliance

How do companies comply with SOX?
The combination of the various SOX requirements means that CEOs and CFOs must attest to having the proper "internal controls" at their companies to protect against data tampering. The data protection requirements for data center infrastructures include:

Guaranteed, no-excuse access to information
Processes and controls to ensure access to information
Separation and protection of information before it is widely disclosed

In short, complying companies must ensure the long-term retention, security, integrity, and availability of data. They must also ensure the authenticity and integrity of data in motion.
