Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) tools allow enterprises to integrate and manage IT operations that are subject to regulation and legal requirements.  These types of software platforms typically combine applications or modules that manage the core functions of GRC into a single integrated package.  Market research leaders, such as Gartner, are indicating that this market segment is overdue for an overhaul.  Integrated Risk Management serves the needs of security and risk management leaders across a spectrum of use cases and  provides a vertically integrated view of risk starting with an organization’s strategy through its business operations and ultimately into the enabling technology assets.
