Cyber security monitoring is the practice of continuously observing IT systems to detect cyber threats, data breaches, and other security issues. By helping to identify threats early, monitoring solutions can help to mitigate attacks faster and limit the damage they can do. Monitoring solutions may track activity on networks as well as endpoints like individual laptops, mobile phones, desktop computers, and IoT devices.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX), enacted in 2002, is a U.S. federal law established to enhance corporate governance and strengthen the accuracy and reliability of financial reporting for publicly traded companies.
