SearchCompliance.com has posted an article detailing important regulatory compliance trends that will affect IT in 2010. The trends that were listed include:

• Automation of compliance processes
• More regulation en route
• FISMA compliance reform
• More enforcement for noncompliance
• Federal data breach and privacy laws emerge
• Cloud computing complicates compliance
• SOX compliance for small companies
• Migration to risk management

I was quoted in a couple parts of the article with my visions of the future related to FISMA and risk management. It’s worth a read and a comment if you think they missed anything, or if my predictions are way off!
