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.
