Governance
Governance is the set of policies, rules, or frameworks that a company uses to achieve its business goals. It defines the responsibilities of key stakeholders, such as the board of directors and senior management. For example, good corporate governance supports your team in including the company's social responsibility policy in their plans.
Good governance includes the following:
- Ethics and accountability
- Transparent information sharing
- Conflict resolution policies
- Resource management
Risk management
Businesses face different types of risks, including financial, legal, strategic, and security risks. Proper risk management helps businesses identify these risks and find ways to remediate any that are found. Companies use an enterprise risk management program to predict potential problems and minimize losses. For example, you can use risk assessment to find security loopholes in your computer system and apply a fix.
Compliance
Compliance is the act of following rules, laws, and regulations. It applies to legal and regulatory requirements set by industrial bodies as well as internal corporate policies. In GRC, compliance involves implementing procedures to ensure that business activities comply with the respective regulations. For example, financial technology organizations must comply with laws like PCI-DSS standards.
ISO 27001 Implementation
ISO 27001 is an international standard that sets out the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an information security management system (ISMS) within an organization. The standard provides a systematic and structured approach to managing sensitive information, ensuring its confidentiality, integrity, and availability. By implementing ISO 27001, organizations can enhance the protection of their information assets, reduce the risk of security breaches and data leaks, gain customer trust, and demonstrate their commitment to information security best practices.
PCI-DSS Implementation
It is a set of security requirements developed by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) to ensure the secure handling of credit card information. The standard applies to any organization that processes, stores or transmits cardholder data, including merchants, financial institutions, and service providers. Compliance with PCI DSS helps organizations protect cardholder data, reduce the risk of data breaches and fraud, and build customer trust. It is important for organizations to understand and implement the requirements of PCI DSS to ensure the security of payment card information and maintain compliance with industry standards.
ISO & PCI-DSS Gap Analysis
A gap analysis is a process that helps organizations identify the gaps or differences between their current state and a desired state or specific requirements, such as those outlined in ISO standards or PCI DSS. Both ISO and PCI gap analyses are conducted to assess an organization's compliance with the respective standards and identify areas that need improvement.
Vulnerability Assessment
A vulnerability assessment is a systematic review of security weaknesses in an information system. It evaluates if the system is susceptible to any known vulnerabilities, assigns severity levels to those vulnerabilities, and recommends remediation or mitigation, if and whenever needed.
Configuration Review
Hardening network devices reduces the risk of Unauthorized access to a network’s infrastructure. Vulnerabilities in device management and configurations present weaknesses for a malicious cyber actor to exploit in order to gain presence and maintain persistence within a network. Adversaries have shifted their focus from exclusively exploiting traditional endpoints to increasingly exploiting specialized and embedded devices, including routers, switches, and firewalls. They do this through manipulating weaknesses in configurations, controlling routing protocols, and implanting malware in the operating systems.

Why is GRC important?
By implementing GRC programs, businesses can make better decisions in a risk-aware environment. An effective GRC program helps key stakeholders set policies from a shared perspective and comply with regulatory requirements. With GRC, the entire company comes together in its policies, decisions, and actions.
How does GRC work?
GRC in any organization works on the following principles:
- Key stakeholders
GRC requires cross-functional collaboration across different departments that practices governance, risk management, and regulatory compliance. Some examples include the following:
- Senior executives who assess risks when making strategic decisions
- Legal teams who help businesses mitigate legal exposures
- Finance managers who support compliance with regulatory requirements
- HR executives who deal with confidential recruitment information
- IT departments that protect data from cyber threats
- GRC framework
A GRC framework is a model for managing governance and compliance risk in a company. It involves identifying the key policies that can drive the company toward its goals. By adopting a GRC framework, you can take a proactive approach to mitigating risks, making well-informed decisions, and ensuring business continuity.
Companies implement GRC by adopting GRC frameworks that contain key policies that align with the organization's strategic objectives. Key stakeholders base their work on a shared understanding from the GRC framework as they devise policies, structure workflows, and govern the company. Companies might use software and tools to coordinate and monitor the success of the GRC framework.
