IT Governance and Controls for FDA & SOX compliance: The single solution

Tags:
cost control - risk mgmt.

Overview If yours is an FDA regulated pharmaceutical manufacturing firm and you must comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX) Section 404 controls for Information Technology (IT), then a natural question to ask is: can you combine the IT Controls required for SOX with the measures needed to meet FDA requirements for 21 CFR Part 11, network security, and IT validation? The next question is: does it make sense to do it and, if so, how? This webinar will show you how an IT control solution based on COBIT can be tailored to satisfy the FDA Part 11 requirements and by extension other regulatory requirements such as HIPAA.
