Risk and Compliance Management

Define and deploy a risk management framework that supports your business objectives and is aligned with the enterprise’s risk appetite.

Security is regularly cited as the top board priority for enterprises and governments around the world. Highly publicized attacks and incidents on the global stage have clearly demonstrated that the wrong risk and compliance management approach can result in loss of data, revenue and market capital. But the risk and compliance management challenges organizations face are numerous:

• Lack of risk visibility. Not understanding the cyber security risk posture of the entire organization and its potential impact on the business makes it difficult to reduce the business risk and leads to poor decisions.
• Outdated and incomplete reporting. Reporting done manually takes weeks and typically returns an incomplete picture of the organization due to information silos, which leads to decisions and response prioritization based on the wrong data.
• Inconsistent controls. Overlap of security controls across the organization — or lack of adequate controls or failure to manage them correctly — increases risk of fines and failed audits.
• Lack of ownership. If no one takes responsibility for mitigating risk, unresolved issues lead to inefficiency, as the same findings are handled over and over in each risk, compliance or audit management activity.
• Manual GRC processes. Manually gathering and verifying risk and compliance data create unnecessary procedural friction, delaying business activities and leading to high cost and inefficiency as time and resources are wasted.
• Tactical and bottom-up technical siloes. If budget is allocated for the latest security trend or technology without first addressing the security foundation, it will result in a lack of alignment between the controls deployed and organization’s business objectives.
• Lack of optimization and automation. Using numerous tools across an organization makes it hard to optimize those tools and complicates the job of adding automation to scale with increasingly sophisticated threats.
