Protiviti Enters SOX Solution Pact

Internal audit and risk-consulting firm Protiviti Inc. has partnered with Tibco Software -- a provider of business integration software -- for a Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404 solution. Terms were not disclosed. Under the agreement, the companies have co-developed a SOX 404 product that integrates Protiviti's SOX portal application with Tibco Staffware Process Suite. The resulting product is a framework to assist users with documenting, testing, assessing and monitoring their internal controls. The companies said that the co-branded SOX solution would help user companies reduce compliance costs and improve transparency.
