Business Solutions

A company's IT and business decisions are affected by dozens of regulations and standards. These can slow or even stall the decision making process. Successful IT solutions providers know which mandates a customer is subject to and how to bring them into compliance. In the area of geographical compliance, cloud computing and mobility have brought new compliance issues to the fore. Throughout the U.S. and Europe new standards regarding data security and privacy are being developed and enforced.

Scott Barlow, vice president of sales at Reflexion Networks, believes IT solutions providers have a "major opportunity" in assisting Our Clients to comply with state, federal, and worldwide regulations; he says, "Regulations require the implementation of compliance-enabling technology coupled with user education and sound operating policies within an organization."
