The Challenge

Large enterprises are experiencing an ever increasing burden of regulation and legislation against which they have to demonstrate compliance. To make matters worse, this myriad of legislation occurs in different areas, for example financial regulation (Sarbanes Oxley), corporate governance, environmental issues, health & safety and industry sector specific.

This problem is not going away and is further compounded by having to map the standards against the company’s businesses processes. The mapping will expose the areas of non-compliance, the potential financial consequences, and the need to combine this with other existing risk management practices.

Our Solution

Plan
Establish governance, risk, compliance and anti-fraud objectives, and identify related processes, physical and information assets.

Do
Link assets and processes to controls, audit for compliance, assess business impact, analyse risks and incidents, and review documentation.

Check
Monitor and evaluate performance versus the objectives.

Act
Use Proteus Enterprise™ utilities such as action plans, workflow and gap analysis to reduce variance from plan.

Proteus Enterprise™ is a fully integrated web based 'Information Risk Management, Compliance and Security' solution that is fully scaleable and is quite simply the most functionally rich and capable compliance and risk solution on the market today.

Using Proteus Enterprise™, companies can perform any number of online compliance audits against any standard and compare between them. They can then assess how deficient compliance controls affect the company both financially and operationally by mapping them on to its critical business processes. Proteus® then identifies risks and mitigates those risks by formulating a work plan, maintains a current and demonstrable compliance status to the regulators and senior management alike.

The system works with the company’s existing infrastructure and uses RiskView™ to bridge the gap between the technical / regulatory community and senior management by presenting the distilled information in a graphical 'dashboard' placed on their desktop.
