SOX Act Basel II Accord SOX and Basel II
 

The enactment of Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) and Basel II Capital Accord (Basel II) have forced many organizations to re-look into their IT processes, security controls, IT governance and operational risk management, just to name a few. While these augurs well to the management and deployment of IT functions within the organizations, the reality is that most of the IT staff are not prepared and equipped with the necessary knowledge on what they need to do.

Many multi-national organizations have realized the urgent need to train and equip their IT staff with the knowledge and understanding of these requirements in order to meet these new "challenges".
