Meeting the challenges of government mandates
Government regulations, such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the Basel II require companies to implement policies, procedures, and controls that improve information availability, accuracy, and privacy. Regardless of what business you are in, Adobe solutions can help your organization meet the challenges of government mandates without requiring a complete overhaul of current business processes.
Adobe solutions improve corporate accountability by streamlining document processes, increasing accuracy of regulatory submissions, and reducing risks associated with creating, exchanging, and archiving documents. Using existing technologies, Adobe solutions help your organization:
- Increase reliability of regulatory submissions using PDF-based archives
- Maintain document authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality
- Generate real-time financial statements from enterprise applications
Compliance
Streamline and automate the financial reporting process
Compliance is the achievement of minimum requirements as dictated by regulatory bodies and law. New mandates such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act or Basel II raise these standards by increasing the demand for availability and accuracy of financial reports, management of risk and fiscal responsibility, and accountability of directors and officers.
The Adobe® Intelligent Document Platform helps financial services institutions simplify and accelerate compliance by automating collaborative review processes, increasing the reliability of financial reporting, and creating accurate, fully searchable financial records. With Adobe solutions, you can:
- Document financial processes and controls more efficiently
- Retrieve enterprise data for accurate, real-time PDF financial statements
- Route documents through structured and ad hoc processes that update core systems automatically
- Include business logic in documents so you can improve visibility into processes to better mitigate risk
Information privacy
Protect sensitive information from misuse or wrongful disclosure
Adobe solutions help businesses meet the strict standards for information privacy as set forth in new mandates such as HIPAA and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
Such regulations require businesses to protect and limit access to sensitive information — from HR records to company financial data — while making it readily available to the right people. Access control and user permissions travel with Adobe Intelligent Documents, helping to prevent unauthorized users from viewing or forwarding confidential information. Adobe solutions can help you:
- Create access controls that travel with every document — even outside the firewall
- Determine levels of access for every audience
- Assign unique access rights based on recipient's security certificate information

- Reduce the risks of transmitting sensitive data
