Customizable Compliance Frameworks
Overview
The Compliance Challenge Businesses Face
Businesses struggle to keep up with ever-changing compliance requirements. The complexity of aligning with frameworks such as NIST, ISO 27001, CMMC, GDPR, HIPAA, SOC 2, and PCI DSS often overwhelms organizations, leading to increased risks, penalties, and inefficiencies. Risk Cognizance transforms compliance by offering a user-friendly, AI-automated compliance solution that streamlines governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) management.
Custom Frameworks Made Easy
Build custom compliance and privacy frameworks
Customizable compliance frameworks can be created by assessing risks, defining requirements, and implementing best practices. When creating a custom framework, it's important to balance compliance with business objectives.
Steps for creating a custom compliance framework:
- Assess risks: Consider potential dangers and uncertainties when working with third-party vendors.
- Define requirements: Outline how to implement and maintain the framework.
- Implement best practices: Follow best practices for cloud security, for example.
- Balance compliance with business objectives: Make sure compliance doesn't overshadow the organization's broader business goals.
- Enforce standards: Make sure employees know compliance expectations and consequences for non-compliance.
Why Businesses Need a Governance, Risk, and Compliance Software
Manual compliance management is no longer sustainable. Organizations face growing challenges such as:
- Constantly evolving regulatory requirements
- High risk of human errors in compliance tracking
- Time-consuming audits and reporting
- Difficulty in integrating security and compliance efforts
