Microsoft Office as a Secure Enterprise Solution

Electronic spreadsheets are vital to the success of your business. In the hands of a talented, capable front-line business analyst, an electronic spreadsheet model enables, facilitates, and empowers an individual or team to undertake nimble, efficient, and effective analysis, which produces value-added work products such as timely regulatory compliance, management reporting, and business intelligence.

However, in terms of the enterprise information technology model, distributed spreadsheet models present a challenge and introduce risk. Your firm's business subject-matter experts have developed significant intellectual capital (IC) about your business and it now lives in spreadsheet models. Providing a 'single version of the truth' via those IC spreadsheet models throughout the enterprise is an operational imperative.

Conventional wisdom dictates that these spreadsheet models crisscross the organization via electronic mail, corporate FTP site, or dedicated shared network directory. Unfortunately, distributing this business intelligence is not just a simple e-mail or file sharing/download exercise. Many factors must be considered, such as security, synchronization of the model's versioning across multiple operating entities in multiple countries and many time zones, data validation, centralized reporting, decision support, and possible regulatory compliance requirements such as HIPAA, Gramm-Leach-Bliley, Sarbanes-Oxley as well as information-security standards such as BS-7799 and ISO-27001.
