GRC Challenges

What We Are Hearing!

Organizations face constant challenges in finding the right GRC solutions. Each element of a GRC program may differ from one part of the organization to another and may be at different maturity levels due to priorities, culture, and resources to name a few. Below are groupings for what we are hearing from our prior clients.

Audit and Assessment (Where are we?)

  • What do I need to comply with, and how?
  • What do I need to track and measure for compliance?
  • My staff are overwhelmed and don’t know where to start.
  • Too many distractions from business goals.

Strategy Development for GRC Solutions (Where do we go?)

  • My GRC program is not aligned with or supports my business goals.
  • My governance is not providing the proper guidance and feedback on risk and compliance activities.
  • I don’t have the resources and funds for an effective GRC program.
  • Company culture is resistant to change.
  • There are too many competing priorities.
  • Unclear requirements for measuring success.

Strategy Implementation for GRC Solutions (How do we get there?)

  • I can’t engage with the areas I need for input.
  • Some areas don’t understand the value of governance and risk management.
  • We implemented the recommended technology, but it didn’t solve our problems.
  • Unclear recommendations and remediation work by subject matter experts.
  • We’re always having to react to issues rather than proactively managing.

Risk Management (What may interfere with us?)

  • What do I need to track and measure for risk?
  • My enterprise risk management and operating risk management don’t speak the same language.
  • We don’t know how to identify and measure our risks consistently.

GRC Solutions

GRC solutions are essential for organizations to manage regulatory requirements, mitigate risks, and ensure robust cybersecurity. Effective solutions balance the foundations of people, process, and technology. While technology provides the necessary tools and automation for efficient risk management and compliance tracking, it is not sufficient on its own. Skilled professionals, who understand the nuances of regulatory landscapes and risk environments, are crucial. These experts drive the processes that ensure compliance and risk mitigation strategies are effectively implemented and maintained. Additionally, strong analysis and project management are vital, enabling organizations to identify potential risks, assess their impact, and develop comprehensive mitigation plans. This holistic approach ensures that solutions are not only technically sound but also strategically aligned with organizational goals, ultimately enhancing cybersecurity and operational resilience.
