Compliance

Compliance regimes, whether requires by law or business organizations, typically require that you demonstrate effective security policies and practices.

Requirements vary by the regime. HIPAA and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) emphasize the need for database security, authorization, and the prevention of data leaks. HITECH requires disclosure of security breaches. PCI DSS concerns the prevention of information disclosure but also requires periodic scans.
