How do we do that?  Next Steps  Identify the risk of NOT doing things to satisfy compliance  Create a GAP of where you are and where you need to be to satisfy cross compliance  Monitor and document where you are throughout the year  At a bare minimum assign an individual within the company to stay on top of this process  Educate  Enforce  Utilize a 3 rd party where possible
