What is GRC?

GRC as an acronym stands for Governance, Risk, and Compliance, but the term GRC means much more than that. Governance is all about directing and controlling the organization. In GRC, the process of identifying, analyzing, and controlling threats that could endanger a strategy is known as risk management, and the act of ensuring that a standard or set of guidelines is followed, or that proper, consistent accounting or other practices are being employed is compliance.

Why GRC is important?

Effective decision-making
Optimizing IT investments
Eliminating silos
Minimized fragmentation between departments and divisions
