Many more companies report full compliance with recent regulations than did last year.
Eighty percent of respondents' companies are in full compliance with the major regulations that have come down the pike in recent years, with the exception of Sarbanes-Oxley. Two percent or fewer say they are not in compliance at all with Sarbanes, HIPAA, the USA Patriot Act or Gramm-Leach Bliley. Sarbanes-related work will continue to be a focus for many companies.
