Overview: The off-balance-sheet corporate accounting misdeeds of Enron, Worldcom, and other companies during the 1990s were pivotal events that set the stage for SEC and investor outrage and the passage of H.R. 3763, also known as the Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Act of 2002. This paper describes the goal of SOX, which is to bring greater accuracy, visibility, and transparency to corporate financial reporting. It offers numerous technologies that help the company to rapidly and thoroughly address the most difficult aspects of Section 404 compliance. More important, these same tools and technologies enables them to move beyond compliance to broader risk management initiatives, allowing their company to operate more securely, efficiently, and profitably.
