Do you work for a brokage house, have a subsidiary that is a brokerage house, or do any type of work with a brokerage house? If so, then you should be aware of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) proposed changes to Regulation S-P in March of this year.

Tomorrow and Wednesday I'm doing some sessions at the Secure 360 conference in St. Paul, Minnesota. I'm really looking forward to also seeing the other sessions while here (yes, I've arrived and getting some work done in my room)!

The second article in this month's IT Compliance in Realtime Journal is, "Smart Business Leaders Support Log Management."
