Exploring the Impact of CPRA on Organizations

Why Should You Attend:

Governance reflects how an enterprise achieves its stated mission. Deploying a governance framework may inhibit managerial non-compliance, but it is not an absolute deterrent. Where multiple regulatory agencies have government-supported agendas, variances can exist that induce comprehensive legal compliance reviews of organizations. Primary to numerous decrees control is a thorough analysis of what is required and ensuring quality documentation supporting an entity’s legal compliance efforts.

The enactment of laws continues, and the regulatory environment has become more complicated due to unacceptable conduct remediation. Consequently, enterprises need to continue demonstrating compliance with legal mandates through documented managerial actions and assurance assessments.

The migration from manual to technology-generated information has resulted in verdicts and judgments where liability, guilt, or innocence occurred solely on electronically encoded evidence. Reliance on technology-created information as evidence raises issues and challenges from a management perspective that needs appropriate controls through effective governance and audit.

Separately or jointly, government-sponsored laws and regulations can impose governance requirements that affect information technology (IT) service efforts. An enterprise’s control environment (CE) can provide discipline and structure to processes ensuring adequate operational, financial, and compliance requirements. As an integrated component, technology has and will continue to influence the CE and assume activity change agent responsibility. Nevertheless, technological development and deployment have inextricable connectivity to the economic, social, political, and informational factors prevailing in the enterprise’s CE.
