whitepaper Protection for Every Endpoint2008-01-28 Symantec
  Given today's increasingly volatile threat landscape, organizations know they need to take a more holistic approach to protecting their endpoints.

whitepaper Tripwire PCI DSS Solutions: Automated, Continuous Compliance2008-01-24 Tripwire
  The major credit card companies collaboratively developed the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) to protect sensitive cardholder account data from theft and fraud. Compliance is no longer an option; it's a requirement for all payment card network members and failure to meet requirements can result in monetary penalties or even the suspension or revocation of a company's right to accept or process credit card transactions. Fortunately, these standards amount to best practices that keep the systems, hardware, and data secure - critical for maintaining customer trust and the reputation. That's why it is so important to keep IT systems in a known and trusted state.
