Achieving Federal Desktop Core Configuration Compliance (FDCC) with Lumension® Solutions | 2009-06-01 | Lumension |
| The Federal Desktop Core Configuration (FDCC) is an Office of Management and Budget (OMB) mandated security configuration set applicable within United States Federal Government agencies. Private enterprises may also choose to utilize this established framework as a foundation for their own security configuration baselines. All federal agencies that utilize or plan an upgrade to either Windows XP or Vista must report compliance, with FDCC reporting requirements dictated by the standard FISMA reporting guidance. The FDCC specific configuration requirements are generally based on the "Principle of Least Privilege" restricting user and machine rights. This whitepaper examines the FDCC requirements, the compliance challenges including vulnerability management, change control, and system security management and also highlights how Lumension's SCAP Validated FDCC scanner is integrated with a complete vulnerability management solution to effectively enable compliance with these standards.

Using Qualysguard to Meet Sox Compliance & IT Control Objectives | 2009-06-01 | Qualys |
| The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 has fundamentally changed the business and regulatory landscape for all companies publically traded in the US. SOX is intended to instill confidence back into the investor community after several corporate scandals resulted in the loss of billions of dollars in invested capital. SOX does this by increasing corporate governance requirements through measures that will strengthen internal checks and balances and ultimately, provide transparency, as well as elevated corporate accountability. It is important to emphasize that section 404 does not require senior management and business process owners to merely establish and maintain an adequate internal control structure, but also to assess its effectiveness on an annual basis.

Endpoint Security Considerations for Achieving GLBA Compliance | 2009-03-19 | Check Point Software Technologies |
| Rebooting the global financial system may take years. The international move to new regulatory organizations will require financial institutions to change the way they do business. No one knows exactly how the system will change yet, but one thing is certain: financial institutions will be required to protect the security and confidentiality of customer information. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) of 1999 (P.L. 106-102) defines guidelines and standards for safeguarding customer information. These rules apply to all financial institutions doing business in the U.S. New laws and financial regulations for the coming reboot may change GLBA, but increasing threats to customer data will only guarantee tighter security requirements.
