Aveksa Compliance Manager automates security compliance

Aveksa announced the availability of the second major release of Aveksa Compliance Manager. The company’s flagship enterprise software enables IT security and compliance teams to meet the requirements of Sarbanes Oxley, HIPAA, GLBA, Basel II and other security and privacy regulations.

Aveksa Compliance Manager is the only security compliance management solution that automates access rights monitoring and compliance reporting across the enterprise. It helps organizations determine who has access to what information assets, whether the access rights and roles are appropriate, and if security policies and compliance objectives are met regardless of where the information is stored or who controls it. The solution delivers enterprise- wide visibility across mainframe, midrange, Web and PC environments by monitoring entitlements to applications and resources such as SAP, Oracle Financials, PeopleSoft, LDAP-based directories, ACF/2, RACF, TopSecret, and AS/400.

“With thousands of employees and a broad range of applications and systems, it is critical that we have visibility into entitlements and roles, and have an automated, end-to-end reporting, certification and remediation process to ensure compliance with Sarbanes Oxley and other regulations,” said Thomas Dunbar, global IT chief security officer, XL Global Services, Inc. “The Aveksa Compliance Manager combines all of these capabilities and should help us serve our key business constituents, automate controls assurance, and ensure that risk and compliance management is an integrated part of our IT fabric.”
