Enterprise PKI (ePKI) for meeting Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) requirements
Strong authentication and legally binding Digital signatures create auditable executive controls.As organizations, especially in the highly regulated finance and insurance sectors, compete in a exceedingly volatile marketplace, they must continue to find ways to reduce costs, deliver services faster, and react to ever-changing government and industry best practices and regulations. One such regulation is Sarbanes-Oxley a.k.a SOX. SOX requires public companies to implement increased controls for C level executives – CEO, CFO, CISO, etc. Evidence of executive accountability surrounding all significant decisions impacting customers, shareholders, and other stakeholders now must be proved via documented, enforced, and audited internal controls.
GlobalSign’s ePKI solution provides organizations of all sizes with the platform and processes to issue Digital IDs to allow them to stay competitive with fast electronic commerce within both internal and often unsecure external networks, while still meeting the executive accountability requirements set forth by SOX. Digital IDs, also referred to Digital Certificates, are the equivalent of an electronic identity that when used in conjunction with secure network access, digitally signing key Microsoft or Adobe PDF documents, or securing sensitive emails, allows organizations to bind key business transactions to C level executives. Digital certificates provide network administrators an easy way to maintain who has access to what areas of the trusted network while digital signatures applied to Microsoft or Adobe PDF documents allow for an easy and affordable method to transmit and archive key electronic correspondence associated with executives.
