Unfortunately legislative bodies are dominated by lawyers, especially in the U.S. Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX), Congress's blunderbuss response to the Enron debacle, achieves maximum burden with minimal protection. A classic case of lawyers meddling in IT.

Sent: Thursday, April 20, 2017 12:49 PM To: [email protected] Subject: (External):Re: Vendor Licensing Frustrations My observations: Rules created by lawyers are complex and impractical. Rules created by technicians are simple and easy to use. IMHO: optimal solution: A product is able to run for limited period (a week) and new key is then delivered in case of real disaster. For DR drills grace period is long enough to make key ordering process optional (just to test the process). Or IBM approach: no keys at all. -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
