MASTERING THE ART OF GRC AUTOMATION: KEY DELIVERABLES

Jack Rumsey
2 Minute Read



WHAT ARE GRC AUTOMATION DELIVERABLES?

In the realm of Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC), automation plays a
pivotal role in managing and demonstrating the effectiveness of controls. GRC
can mean a lot of things. Automation can mean a lot of things. In this post I’m
going to explain the way I think about GRC automation.

Here’s a breakdown of key GRC automation deliverables and their significance:


AUDIT EVIDENCE

Audit evidence is crucial for proving the design and effectiveness of controls.
Depending on the control, this evidence can take various forms:

 * Policies and documentation: Often the starting point, providing the framework
   for controls or the entire design of a control.
 * Screenshots of system configurations: Raw evidence showing the actual state
   of systems. Typically considered technical controls where the configuration
   proves the design and the effectiveness.
 * Report outputs: Such as user access listings or device inventories. Often
   used to evidence the effectiveness of certain controls.
 * Ticketing system logs: A population of records tied to a control activity,
   such as testing changes or approving access. The most basic example of
   evidence used to prove the effectiveness of a control.

Most control effectiveness is measured by the ability to demonstrate a
population of occurrences, such as the approval and risk assessment of new tools
added to the environment in the last year or instances of privileged access
granted in your cloud provider, like Amazon Web Services (AWS).


COMPLIANCE MONITORING METRICS

Once audit evidence is collected, compliance monitoring metrics are essential to
demonstrate coverage over broader compliance postures. Compliance monitoring
tools like Drata, Vanta, Anecdotes, or Secureframe are invaluable for:

 * Defining security/GRC program requirements.
 * Easily accessing corresponding information and evidence for controls.
 * Showing the status of all controls tied to frameworks like ISO27001, SOC 2,
   HIPAA, PCI DSS, NIST 800-53, and GDPR.


DASHBOARDS AND REPORTING

Dashboards are crucial for presenting compliance and GRC status to executive
teams and can even help win deals with customers. They provide a clear, visual
representation of compliance coverage across the in-scope frameworks at the
organization. Platforms like Anecdotes offer pre-baked compliance dashboards
that simplify this process.


AUTOMATING GRC PROCESSES

While automating evidence collection is common, automating entire control
processes can be more complex yet achievable. Swimlane Turbine provides a
powerful automation platform to build custom controls and integrate with
existing tools via APIs.


THE KEY TO SUCCESS: AI-ENHANCED GRC AUTOMATION 

Automating GRC processes with tools like Turbine not only streamline operations
but also enhance compliance and risk management. By automating evidence
collection and control processes, organizations can achieve greater efficiency
and accuracy in their GRC efforts.
