From Ted LeRoy

Many organizations have to comply with multiple regulatory requirements for their information security infrastructures.

Fragmented efforts to comply Sarbanes-Oxley (sarbox or SOX), Gramm Leach Bliley Act (GLBA), Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA),  Payment Card Industry - Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS), and ISO 27000 series, to name a few, can result in costly duplication of efforts, or worse, security holes due to the confusion of so many resources trying to tackle similar or the same problems.

Although many commercial tools are available to unify compliance efforts and to audit them, they come with a price tag that is too high for many small to medium sized businesses.
