"Challenged" may not have been the appropriate word, again IANAL, google
sox+whistleblower+court.

I was curious about the mention of "the SOX whistleblowers requirements
have been challenged in court".  Can anyone provide more information on
this?  What has challenged and why?  Thanks!!

From: Madison, Marc [mailto:mmadison () fnni com] IANAL, But IMO use an 
Intranet web page that allows employees to submit anonymous html post 
to the web server via html.  Now if your security policy is pervasive 
then surely auditing is enabled on all your systems, thus removing any

anonymity this would have provided.  Have you considered, dare I say, 
outsourcing?  I only say this since part of the requirement calls for 
the company to provide sufficient anonymity to individuals reporting 
issues.  By the way the SOX whistleblowers requirements have already 
been challenged in court so there might be precedence on what is 
sufficient.
