Mohammed, you ask quite a few questions on here and it is my pleasure to answer many of them.  However, this is an example of a poorly asked question.  If you really have absolutely no idea what SOX is then Google it. 

I look at the open question list on this forum, and I have observed that a great way to stop anybody from answering your question is to use an abbreviation without explanation.  Another is to ask a very short question without context.  Here, you have done both.

So, please, spend five minutes on Google doing your home work, and then reframe your question in the form

"In the context of [whatever it is], what exactly is SOX (Sxxxx Oxxxxx Xxxxxx) and what does it do?

Thank you.  :-)

PS - I probably still won't know.
