Actually, auditors only report.
Management decides.
Compliance enforces (with management backing).

I think that was Ted MacNeil who always said that (more or less this) : 
'Auditors recommend. Management Enforce!'

But, when I try to have my users comply to do something, I said this "According

Generally, I get what I want... 

Sorry, Ted, that I refer to you, but you get the credits. ;-)
