Best Practices in Messaging Security:
Managing email security policy and regulatory compliance requirements
in financial services, health care and public sector

Over the last few years, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) and the threats highlighted by the CAN-SPAM and Internet Spyware Prevention Acts have driven major changes in the systems, processes and security inside organizations.

Some of these regulations are designed to stop sources of spam, viruses and spyware. Others intend to make companies more responsible for the protection of customers' privacy and more accountable for the substance of their financial reports.

All have a pronounced affect on corporate email.

In this paper, we address both general and industry-specific business regulations and how they impact an organization's email system. Special attention is paid to the special concerns in financial services, health care and public sector groups, but companies across all industries and government agencies at the federal, state and local levels are under pressure to respond to new regulations and concerns about outbound email content.
