Summary

The client, a leading universal bank in Egypt, wanted to have a GRC system in place to identify, assess, mitigate, and monitor their IT risks as well as a centralized system to manage their organization-wide policies. BCT Digital implemented its award-winning rt360 Governance, Risk and Compliance (rt360 GRC) product suite covering Policy Management, IT Risk Management, and Asset Management modules to cater to the client’s requirements.

The challenge:

  • Lack of defined asset inventory covering different types of assets
  • Absence of a robust system for tracking and managing assets
  • Version control issues, data integrity risks, and limited collaboration. Potential compromise of the accuracy and efficiency of risk management processes due to risk and control registers being maintained in spreadsheets
  • Lack of visibility in identifying potential vulnerabilities, threats, and areas of non-compliance
  • Lack of defined metrics in quantitatively assessing and measuring risks consistently, impeding effective risk mitigation strategies
  • Lack of a centralized system for creating and maintaining policies
  • Difficulty in managing policy revisions and updates manually
  • Multiple versions and managing version controls
  • Inefficiencies, increased risk of errors, and delays in decision-making due to the time-consuming nature of gathering and analysing data through manual tracking and reporting

Transformation:

The client worked together with BCT Digital on implementing the rt360 Governance, Risk and Compliance (rt360 GRC) product suite covering Policy Management, IT Risk Management, and Asset Management, along with the following business-critical activities:

  • Creating a comprehensive inventory of all IT assets and improving the discovery of assets across the organization
  • Central libraries for risks, controls, threats, vulnerabilities, and incidents to ensure consistency
  • Enabling a systematic approach to evaluating the likelihood and impact of risks
  • Facilitating the implementation of risk mitigation strategies and providing a structured framework for responding to identified risks

  • Gathering and storing all organizational policies in a centralized repository
  • Improving accessibility and version control of policies
