What is SOX?
Since 2002, all publicly traded companies in the U.S. have had to comply with SOX, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act - both on the financial side and on the IT side - to protect shareholders and the general public from accounting errors and fraudulent practices in enterprises.
The act forever changed how corporate electronic records and financial data is classified and stored. Because it's a regulatory standard, organizations need to prove to auditors that internal controls are in place, communicated, and enforced around data, with evidentiary trails.
How Fortra’s Digital Guardian Can Help
Digital Guardian gives organizations the ability to monitor and control sensitive data, enforce policies, and log every user action. With the correct policies in place, corporations can prevent unauthorized users, even those with administrative access, from viewing regulated data and ensure that financial data is accurate and protected against loss.
Digital Guardian can help automate SOX compliance, reduce SOX management costs and provide supportable evidence in an audit that all of your compliance efforts are worth the effort.
CLASSIFY AND PROTECT FINANCIAL DATA
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) requires the classification and protection of financial data. Digital Guardian can help sort regulated data like PII, cardholder and other financial information as soon as it's created and apply persistent classification tags to data, both structured and unstructured, and keep it protected.

EDUCATE USERS WHILE GUARDING AGAINST RISK
Comprehensive controls operate silently until needed, then automatically respond to risky behavior. Employees are educated in real-time on the appropriate handling of regulated data via prompts. Actions that violate data protection policy are blocked or contained.
