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.

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.

Basel II Compliance With Tripwire: Configuration Control for Virtual and Physical Infrastructures | 2008-09-11 | Tripwire |
| As if financial institutions did not have enough compliance worries, a new international standard - Basel II - now looms on the compliance horizon. Unlike other laws and standards affecting financial institutions in the US and overseas such as the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ("GLBA"), the EU Data Protection Directive and the PCI Data Security Standard, however, the ramifications of this law extend beyond protection of electronic consumer data. Instead, Basel II focuses on the institution's core functions of evaluating, planning for, and disclosing financial risk.
