Unified Compliance Project (UCP)

Unified Compliance Project (UCP)

The Unified Compliance Project is worth considering.

"ITCi's Unified Compliance Project (UCP) is the first independent initiative to exclusively support IT compliance management. The UCP parses and reconstructs complex corporate regulations into a holistic IT compliance view.

Most importantly, by focusing on commonalities across regulations, standards-based development, and simplified architectures, the UCP supports a strategic approach to IT compliance that reduces cost, limits liability, and leverages the value of compliance-related technologies and services across the enterprise."
