IT Braces for 'J-SOX' Rules

jcatcw writes to mention that Japan-based businesses are prepping for new requirements, called J-SOX, similar to Sarbanes-Oxley in the United States. Even though details are not expected until next month, many IT managers are already working on implementing controls to handle the expected regulations. "Marios Damianides, an IT risk management consultant and partner at Ernst & Young LLP in New York, said he expects that the relaxation of some Sarbanes-Oxley requirements by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in the U.S. late last year should help ensure that the J-SOX rules won't be excessive for businesses."

How many sox do we need?

Chisox, bosox, and now jsox?

Screw this, I'm watching hockey.

So the Japanese are re-creating Sarbanes-Oxley?

I expect theirs will be more reliable, get better mileage.
