WHY:   As new regulations are added and deadlines quickly approach,
       businesses must enforce compliance at every level of the
       organization or risk damaging the reputation and viability of
       the company. Although most laws and regulations are not aimed
       at IT managers specifically, IT bears the weight of compliance
       as it holds responsibility for safeguarding information and
       financial assets. The challenge for IT management is to ensure
       compliance through operational best practices and audits while
       investing in solutions that will maintain the test of time.
