Compliance Management

Meeting government requirements, such as the Sarbanes Oxley Act (SOX), Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and in European based locations, Basel, requires the proper retention of certain sensitive documents, as well as their proper destruction when they're no longer needed. Failing to have a plan to deal with those regulations can cripple a business.

Services Descriptions

Many corporate wide initiatives are being made the responsibility of the IT function. Disposal of electronic equipment, datacenter power consumption and the impacts of sourcing are three that almost every CIO faces.
