A tweet by Manoj Kulwal (global product manager for SAS Enterprise GRC) a couple of weeks ago drew my attention to a Compliance Week article describing how the US Securities and Exchange Commision (SEC) had (for the first time) brought financial penalties against individuals.
SAS have a number of offerings that touch the Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) domain, but SAS Enterprise GRC has the widest scope and allows an enterprise to build a single, consolidated register of all significant GRC elements (risks, policies, audits, etc).
With the SEC applying such focused penalties, we might expect enterprises to show even greater interest in the GRC domain over the coming months and years.
