    - Password policies are a top concern within IT departments and are included as key IT control for compliance.
    - Companies will implement IAM technology to centrally define and enforce a global password policy.
    - Investments to automate user and access control can be leveraged across multiregulatory environments.
    - Companies need to be proactive, not reactive, in developing, educating, and enforcing enterprise-wide security policies and procedures.
