Organizations that have Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) or HIPAA concerns are excellent candidates for the use of ProTools.

For organizations with data security audit and/or data security implementation concerns, FirstQuarter has developed the first and only security console for Cognos. FirstQuarter’s Security Studio solution helps organizations to easily deploy and manage this critical aspect of their corporate performance management solution. With Security Studio you have true control and visibility to security related matters.

Content and data security are typically addressed late in a project when deployment is near. In most cases, implementing security manually is a complex and error prone process that requires tens of thousands of steps. Security Studio automates the key security tasks that are time consuming and repetitive. With Security Studio, client’s have seen a 90% reduction in the administrative time needed to implement security within Cognos.

FirstQuarter’s Security Studio software is designed to:

• Enable organizations to deliver true role appropriate access to content and data
• Streamline preparation for data security audits
• Provide key security reporting and a clear audit trail of who was provided access to key data and when the access was provided
• Dramatically reduce the administrative burden of security implementation in CPM solutions
• Accurately deploy complex security scenarios quickly and easily
• Allow for incremental deployment of security as CPM solutions expand
