whitepaper Marimba and Software License Compliance2003-09-25 BMC Software
  Software compliance is an ongoing initiative that depends on people, process, and technology. As enterprises continue down the path of IT asset management, remaining compliant with software licensing contracts will save money, increase efficiencies, and improve vendor relations. An effective software compliance and asset management program is critical to ensuring compliance with software license agreements. Enterprises (and their employees) can experience unexpected and paralyzing costs and even criminal penalties for being out of compliance. Marimba's inventory and software management systems offer companies an integrated way to proactively identify software licenses across an enterprise and then "take action" regarding license reconciliation and remediation.

whitepaper Electronic Signatures & FDA: Electronic Signatures and FDA's 21 CFR Part 112002-03-22 Communication Intelligence
  Biometric signatures, is not only similar to a handwritten signature but is also less intrusive than most other biometric authentication techniques, such as retinal eye scan, or fingerprint. The biometrics of a handwritten signature is based not only on the shape of the signature but also the dynamics of the signature. The dynamics of the signature include the velocity and acceleration of the signing event, and stroke dynamics. Signatures have at least three attributes, form, movement, and variation, and since moving a pen on paper produces the signatures, movement perhaps is the most important part of a signature. CIC provides companies with a biometric handwritten electronic signature.

whitepaper Understanding the Implications of SOX to SOA0000-00-00 Layer 7 Technologies
  While a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) conveniently allows applications built on Web services to access other applications without using human intermediates, such robust capabilities can complicate compliance with the identity and access controls mandated by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX). The financial controls and reporting required by section 404 of SOX are forcing companies to rethink how they govern their IT processes. SOX requires identity and access infrastructure that can both control and validate user-machine interactions as well as SOA-based machine-machine interactions. Download this on-demand webcast featuring Layer 7's Senior Product Manager Philip Walston to learn how your existing identity and access management investment can be leveraged to achieve SOX compliance in your SOA application environment.
