MetricStream Launches GRCIntelligence.com - An Award-Winning Content
Portal for Curated GRC Intelligence
PALO ALTO, Calif., March 7, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- MetricStream, a
market-leader in Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) solutions
announced today the launch of its cloud-based content portal,
GRCIntelligence.com, which serves as a one-stop source for GRC
content, regulatory feeds, and market intelligence. The portal is an
open standards-based content aggregation site, which enables GRC
professionals to subscribe to curated information on a wide array of
topics including regulatory compliance, audit, risk, vendor due
diligence, IT risk and compliance, and control management frameworks.
The content covers multiple industries including BFSI, Retail & CPG,
Hi-Tech, Manufacturing, and Healthcare, and can be easily translated
into valuable and actionable insights within the context of the
organization's GRC program. The portal streams content directly as RSS
feeds, alerts or email notifications to any GRCIntelligence.com
subscriber.
GRCIntelligence.com was recently recognized as a recipient of the 2014
GRC Technology Innovation Awards hosted by independent analyst firm
GRC 20/20 Research. Commenting on the awards, Michael Rasmussen, Chief
GRC Pundit at GRC 20/20 Research said, "MetricStream's
GRCIntelligence.com is an innovative content portal that enables GRC
professionals to access and integrate the latest GRC content from a
variety of knowledge providers and information sources through a
single online content store. It enables organizations to source and
integrate GRC content from multiple sources across risk, compliance
and audit with their MetricStream GRC applications in real-time."
GRCIntelligence.com content easily integrates with the MetricStream
GRC Platform through the GRCIntelligence application, enabling users
to seamlessly access content as it is sourced within the respective
MetricStream application. The content is delivered into the
subscriber's MetricStream GRC application through channels in the
GRCIntelligence application layer. MetricStream users have the
capability to review the content as alerts, identify internal action
items, log issues, trigger workflows, and notify users. This feature
helps MetricStream users stay ahead of changes in the regulatory and
compliance environment on a real time basis, as well as understand the
impact of these changes on their organizational GRC framework within
the application itself.
The GRCIntelligence.com portal currently offers content from over 50
leading content partners and sources including Unified Compliance
Framework (UCF), Risk Spotlight, Shared Assessments, Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR), and Clear Market Practices, and new content
partners and sources are being continuously added to its portfolio.
Subscribers can gain substantial know-how on a variety of related
topics and can directly access critical regulatory reports and
analysis, the latest updates to federal and state laws and
regulations, and comprehensive risk and control libraries that can
strengthen their overall risk and compliance management efforts.
"Keeping up with the pace of change across multiple laws, regulations,
and mandates can be costly, and time-consuming," said Jo Reimers,
Director of Regulatory Content at Clear Market Practices. She
continued, "Our aim is to alleviate these challenges and provide
relevant, timely, and well-structured regulatory content through
GRCIntelligence.com. We are delighted to partner with MetricStream,
and we believe that our content, integrated with MetricStream's
industry leading GRC platform, will enable customers to successfully
navigate today's complex regulatory landscape."
"GRCIntelligence.com will provide MetricStream customers with highly
curated content to support them as they build out world class GRC
programs," said Vasant Balasubramanian, Vice President of Product
Management at MetricStream. He added, "This sophisticated intelligence
capability is embedded within the MetricStream GRC Platform, providing
users with real-time GRC intelligence and actionable insights. This
offering further complements and strengthens our industry leading GRC
solutions, and represents MetricStream's commitment to providing our
customers with innovative and comprehensive solutions."
