Governmental, standards bodies and industry groups are placing a heavier burden on enterprises to meet guidelines and regulations.  The impact can range from reduced sales to large fines and even to criminal prosecution.  Regulatory oversight will only continue to increase and create urgency to develop a more "future-proof" solution to reduce costs and improve effectiveness.
