Network Security White Papers

Optimizing Your IT Controls Environment for Compliance with Multiple Regulations

Overview This IDC white paper focuses on the compelling need for today's businesses to understand how they can more efficiently manage multi-regulation compliance. It reviews certain regulations and how to track which pieces of what regulations are fulfilled when security solutions are deployed.

The paper:

Reviews a subset of regulatory legislation and industry standards
Illustrates common overlaps in certain regulations and standards
Offers a "best practice" option for tracking certain aspects of each regulation and ensuring each is covered by a corresponding technological solution

The small subset of regulations and standards covered in this white paper include CobiT, HIPAA, ISO 17799:2005, ITIL, the PCI Data Security Standard, and Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX). They are the focus of IDC's research because they affect a large number of corporate entities and their customers. (Sponsored by Symantec)
