Relieft from Sarbanes-Oxley on the way?

Relieft from Sarbanes-Oxley on the way?

Do you have to fill out a day's worth of paperwork to make the most inane of changes at work? If so, this article may be for you..

Bringing a large or small enterprise into compliance with the new Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) regulations is not cheap. However, perhaps it is more expensive than it needs to be. This may be due to over-reactions and misinterpretations of the regulations, as the CNET article suggests.

However, I would wager that another sizable portion of the unnecessary expense is Vendor's exploiting Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt (FUD) about SOX to up-sell their products or services to CIO/CFO/CXO's.

Good read to understand what is going on and what may change.
