Many organizations continue to struggle with how to efficiently meet compliance requirements resulting from the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX) and other regulations. Some of these organizations turn to governance, risk and compliance (GRC) software to automate and streamline processes for managing and reporting financial and corporate data, according to Michael Rasmussen, founder of Corporate Integrity LLC. But understanding GRC technology and navigating the emerging software market can be difficult. That's why Rasmussen said it's important for companies to fully understand what GRC is really about -- and where software comes in -- before beginning or expanding a GRC initiative.
