While complying with regulations is one of the top issues facing businesses today, many IT security executives are confused about what specifically they must do to achieve compliance. This challenge is exacerbated by the fact that many organizations have more than one industry regulation that they must adhere to.

The key to success stems from identifying a common framework for implementation and mapping the regulatory requirements to that framework. ISO 17799 is quickly becoming that common framework. ISO 17799 is an international security standard or code of practice for information security management.
