Governance Risk and Compliance (GRC)

GRC and IT Quality Assurance Testing

Governance Risk and Compliance (GRC) delivers a strategic framework that helps organizations meet their business objectives while managing risks and complying with relevant regulations. IT Quality Assurance Testing is one component that is crucial in safeguarding sensitive information, protecting systems and data, and maintaining operational integrity.

Governance involves establishing policies, procedures, and frameworks to guide decision-making and ensure alignment with overall business objectives. It includes defining roles and responsibilities, setting performance metrics, and overseeing IT and other governance committees.
Risk Management includes identifying, assessing, and mitigating potential risks that could impact IT systems, data, and operations. This involves conducting risk assessments, developing risk management strategies, and implementing controls to reduce vulnerabilities.
Compliance enforces adherence to regulatory requirements, industry standards, and internal policies. This includes staying updated on relevant laws and regulations, conducting compliance audits, and implementing measures to ensure compliance with data privacy, security, and other applicable regulations.
