Compliance: 2008 Predictions
|
The IT Compliance Institute's research director, Cass Brewer, has begun issuing her predictions for IT and compliance in 2008. Some highlights from her first article: |
Green IT: "The U.S. government's Office of Management and Budget (OMB) will both reflect and help drive green momentum by requiring agencies to include green language in contracts."
Security Controls over Third Parties: "In the next year, managerial confidence in internal information security, coupled with ample documentation of policies and procedures, will allow managers to contractually enforce security controls across broader business relationships."
Voice over IP: "The potential for VOIP data to be included in e-discovery requests will propel new interest in telephony records management."
Her full analysis, which concerns management practices even more than the legal landscape, can be found here. CIO Insight's last full-length survey on compliance came out in June 2006.
