Create Controls Once. Comply Many Times.

As we've been saying, it's better to establish controls once and then map those (single) controls to multiple compliance mandates than it is to comply with every compliance mandate individually. Richard has some more thoughts on this in what is a pretty useful guide:

Control and governance frameworks like COBIT and ISO 17799 can help organizations in three ways: understanding the dimensions of security and governance requirements, illustrating the many options there are to meet requirements and structuring an ongoing compliance program.

And:

Compliance with any regulation, contract or standard requires a structured cyclical approach to accomplish its goals.

Look out for our Webcast on this very topic coming-up soon.
