Sarbanes-Oxley
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 is landmark legislation designed to make public companies more transparent in their financial reporting and more proactive in sharing material information with other participants in the financial reporting chain such as auditors, audit committees, analysts and investors. It requires CEO’s, CFO’s and auditors of companies to certify accuracy of financial statements and disclosures and report on deficiencies in the design or operation of internal controls. It requires a business continuity / disaster recovery plan be in place. Recent legislation activity, if passed, extends the requirements of Sarbanes-Oxley to privately owned businesses.

Requirements
CEO’s and CFO’s must personally certify financial statements and filings, as well as affirm that they are responsible for establishing and enforcing disclosure controls and procedures at all levels of their corporation. It also requires an annual evaluation of internal controls and procedures for financial reporting, document retention, retrieval, and disaster recovery. The corporation must document its existing controls that have a bearing on financial reporting, test them for efficacy and report on gaps and deficiencies, and verify they can recover data and documents in the event of a disaster, natural or intentional.
