whitepaper Enterprise Payments Vendors: The Integration Approach to Global Payments2007-10-01 Sterling Commerce
  As banks define new or updated payments strategies, they are considering their technology strategies and the vendors who support them. The formulation of this strategy hinges on whether banks retain existing legacy systems, implement new payments applications, or perhaps start an enterprise-wide payments reengineering program with a combination of technology choices.

In the past, such choices were limited to a short list of vendors with applications catering to specific geographic regions or payment types, but TowerGroup has identified a broad bifurcation of solutions providers: payments framework providers and payments application providers.

In this Research Note, TowerGroup reviews the major payments framework vendors through company profiles and information on solution offerings and any relevant partnerships. Learn more about:
  • The nature of payments application partnerships
  • The International Standards Organization (ISO) 20022 payments data model
  • The common technology elements in the form of integration tools, business activity monitoring (BAM), and state management shared by all enterprise payments solutions possess
  • The fallacy of the "one-size-fits-all" approach to enterprise payments

whitepaper Moving to an Effective, Efficient, and Sustainable Information Security Management System Based on the ISO 27001 International Standard2007-03-01 Wolcott Group
  In the rush to meet regulatory or customer mandates, organizations have spent millions of dollars in implementing security and compliance measures on an issue-by-issue or regulation-by-regulation basis. These approaches to compliance and information security governance are filled with unnecessary risks and costs. This is demonstrated by the fact that over 90 million customer data records have been compromised in the last 18 months by public companies, universities, and government agencies due to breaches in security. Clearly, the standards of Information Security Governance must be raised. What is needed is an approach that is effective, efficient, and sustainable. This paper explains how such an approach is achievable by establishing it on the secure foundation of the ISO 17799 and ISO 27001 international standards.
