Logistics Efficiency Means Moving Data as Well as Goods

Distribution and warehouse operations rely on tracking both information and materials. Often sensitive, critical files must be securely exchanged between departments, business partners, and government agencies.

• Secures integrity of private data required by Sarbanes-Oxley 404 and 409

Regulations for distribution and supply-chain management vary depending on industry and geography, and the landscape is constantly changing. Still, chances are good you'll be accountable for meeting these requirements:

• SOX Section 404 and 409:
  Meet administrative/management self-assessment and compliance requirements to have internally established guidelines for maintaining integrity and security for file transfers.
• Federal and State Business Tax Codes:
  File earnings, payroll, and other tax documentation based on secure and accurate information shared through reliable data transfer software.
• Federal Trade Commission Regulations:
  
  • Ensure that tax filings exchanged with relevant parties must be based on secure, reliable and confirmable information.
  • Protect price monitoring and inventory control data shared with the FTC during file transfers.
