The challenges of moving governance, risk and compliance to the cloud

The move to cloud has become synonymous with efficiency and agility, but also introduces new and increased risks. Governance, risk and compliance (GRC) practitioners are at the centre of a nexus of forces, which include digital transformation, a rise in cyber crime, increasingly onerous regulatory environments and growing client and employee privacy concerns. How do each of these play out when GRC moves to cloud?

  • Find out how digital business transformation is introducing new categories of risks
  • Discover how the rise of cybercrime with many organisations not prepared to secure what is becoming known as the borderless enterprise
  • Learn how you can maintain compliance with mandatory regulations like Sox, GDPR and POPIA, as well as voluntary regulations like ISO standards
  • Ensure that you are protecting the privacy of client and employee data and mitigate the wide implications in terms of potential brand damage and associated business losses
