Do you ever talk about SOX and SOD (Segregation of Duties). It seems that people forget why SOD is so important and that was long before SOX came into the picture. I can only think what might be happening because of smaller staff as result of cutting cost.

“Is SOX no longer important? I am aware of people doing or companies recruiting for people to do PeopleSoft or E-Business Suite application security in production. They also have dba and or developer duties. I guess external and internal audit doesn’t care anymore. If any audit group from anywhere wanted to have a ideal of what companies might be doing, they could just search the web for job ops, and find everything in black and white. Very interesting. Maybe I’m skewed from 10 years of PeopleSoft security.”

I’ll include this/your web site url. I just didn’t want to do it without given you the credit you deserve. People want to know who you are.

This is part of a quote from one of your postings and it has stayed with me for some time and I want your permission to put it at the bottom of my personal emails below my name. “”Peter Thomas —There is nothing that homo sapiens likes more than to pigeonhole his or her fellows. We tend to take a binary approach to people’s skills. Fred is a visionary, but you wouldn’t want him to run a project. Jane is brilliant at the details, but she doesn’t see the big picture. Perhaps we are more comfortable with the idea that the strength of any colleague is automatically balanced by a weakness; it brings them back down to a reasonable level.—”"
