I'm Russell Tomoum. I've spent more than twenty years in SOX and internal controls. When a public company's own SEC filing says a control over its financial reporting failed in a serious way, that's a material weakness. It's right there in the filing. How long it goes without a reported fix is much harder to see. So I built the Ctrl Worx Clock. It starts when a company reports a material weakness, and it stops when a later annual report says it's fixed. Some have been running for years. Controls Radar shows a company's record in seconds. Ask the Clock answers inside Claude and ChatGPT. And Watch List Pro delivers the full list every Monday, in the Monday file. Every line comes from the companies' own filings, with a link.
