Comments on: ROI: Risk of incarceration?

It's hard to prove monetary return of investments in security, but execs understand the risk of not complying with regulations.

Bored, bored, bored

No surprise there's been no comments in five days for this story; that's because we all fall asleep when the magic word 'SOX' gets mentioned in a story. That's because, despite the hype, no-one's gone to jail or even had a slap on the wrist for such major crimes as not keeping every single email and Instant Message sent or received by anyone in the company. Despite sterling efforts by vendors such as Cryoserver it's going to need more than a bit of common sense before people get their heads out of the sand and start protecting themselves.

But realistically we're never going to see CIO's led off in handcuffs, so why bother?

Too specialist, too early!

Cryoserver is too far ahead of the curve to be mainstream yet. They've probably got too wrapped up in the forensic approach to get the attention of the masses, and like you say - until people start being led off in handcuffs no-one's going to bother to buy these audit systems for forensic compliance.
