The importance of deploying continuous business controls monitoring for compliance & operational risk management

In order to function, a GRCM platform requires extensive data input from throughout the enterprise. The GRCM must establish if IT controls should be absent or present, and whether existing IT controls are compliant or non-compliant. Since most of the controls in a GRCM relate to process, operations, and management, their related data are usually captured via questionnaires that are manually completed by staff and entered into the system. Manually capturing data is appropriate for those controls, but it cannot scale to address technical controls. A typical large enterprise can have thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of global IT assets in scope, so automation becomes a mandatory requirement for discovering these assets, identifying their owners, evaluating their state of configuration, and ensuring that configurations conform to policy. This session will explore complementary solutions that augment Gartner’s eight core functions of IT GRCM and related automation capabilities by integrating functionality into the legacy IT GRCM solutions.
