Compliance Management

Reduce the costs of your compliance efforts by centrally managing your security policies, controls, and audit data

The Situation and Challenge

According to industry analysts, there are now over 15,000 U.S. and International regulations that govern how businesses should manage information. Between internal and external auditing costs (which are rising 35% a year), external consulting fees, and investing in new IT systems, the average large-cap company is spending over $4 million a year on their compliance efforts. These same companies, most of which rely heavily on manual compliance procedures, are also spending over 6,000 person-hours of work to get their internal controls to a state where they match up to the needs of section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley act alone.

On one hand, in the rush to meet compliance obligations, you may have relied on, and may now be stuck with, labor-intensive manual processes that you can’t maintain long-term. On the other hand, you may have an audit- or consultant-driven IT proposal that is over-engineered and cost-prohibitive. Your objective is to find the middle ground where you can meet your obligations, maintain your sanity, and not give away the farm. That’s where Wolcott can help you.
