SOX is in a way the mother of all internal control regulations. Although not the first internal control regulation by a long way, it is the one that has had the greatest impact in terms of its magnitude and its (global) area of application.

The introduction of a new software process in an organization is a difficult and often risky proposition. This is especially true when adopting agile processes like Scrum that usually imply radical departures from traditional team structures, cooperation styles and relationships.
