Audit Execution & Response
Utilize prepared workpapers and workflow to guide and streamline your auditing investigation
Take a Risk-Based GRC Audit Approach
- Leverage up-to-date centralized data across your CMDB, risk register, and inventory records
- Avoid unnecessary hunting for evidence across systems, departments, and individuals
- Schedule regular internal audits to measure exposure and stay ahead of regulatory demands
- Execute guided audit task workflows to deliver findings in an expedited manner
- Update risk status and values based on GRC audit findings and workflow response
- Measure performance over time with centralized findings and historical benchmarking
Document Findings and Measure Controls
- Collect data and information via automated assessments for a digital receipt of business activity
- Measure readiness with our control library, pre-mapped to leading industry standards (ISO, NIST, FedRAMP, etc.)
- Review data across systems with secure internal and external system integrations
- Identify missing or deficient controls according to current practices and the latest policy updates
- Measure risk exposure, and identify treatment plan based on vulnerabilities and missing controls
- Support findings with linked evidence, and secure summary explanations
Test Control Strength and Design
- Map custom controls to leading standards, your internal policy, or take a hybrid approach
- Track control status from planned, pending, and implemented, or identify missing controls
- Auto-flag and calculate risk based on vulnerability exposure and related control status
- Test control design to ensure that it is accurately measuring processes against policy
- Test control effectiveness to understand if current efforts in place reduce exposure
Streamline Audit Execution and Response
- Kick start GRC auditing efforts with prepared workpapers to guide process and documentation
- Manage communication within a secure portal for both internal and external messaging
- Attach reference documentation, such as a pdf or other files to your treatment or findings report
- Establish remediation and treatment plans to improve control strength by implementing new or modified controls
- Provide end-to-end visibility from data collection to findings reports for leadership and regulatory authorities
