Full Story:
RSA, The Security Division of EMC (NYSE: EMC), today announced new RSA Archer eGRC Platform and Solution enhancements designed to drive more value for customers than ever before. The new Archer eGRC Platform provides additional scalability, improved usability, and advanced reporting while new RSA Archer solutions have been developed for PCI Compliance and Regulatory Change Management.
The combination of the updated platform, core solutions and new value-add solutions will help customers more efficiently stay ahead of risk management and compliance requirements as their environments continue to grow and regulatory requirements change. Improved internal audit capabilities offer customers the opportunity to connect auditing with enterprise controls - a crucial first step in integrating compliance within an overall risk management strategy.
Additionally, RSA has launched an updated RSA Archer Community and Exchange platform providing members with expanded tools and resources to facilitate collaboration and help drive innovation for the RSA Archer GRC Platform. With nearly 9,000 members, it is one of the largest vendor-sponsored communities of GRC professionals.
Enhanced RSA Archer Platform:
The RSA Archer Platform is engineered to help enterprises easily manage risks, demonstrate compliance, automate business processes, and gain visibility into corporate risk and security controls across IT, finance, operations and legal domains. Enhancements have been added which are designed to provide improved usability and additional scalability and functionality for customers including:
-- Flexible packaging capabilities which are engineered to allow users to
bundle, move and deploy solutions much faster, significantly shortening
the migration process while facilitating quicker solution releases.
-- Advanced reporting with introduction of additional statistical
functions.
-- Expanded international capabilities designed to enable bi-directional
languages, including Arabic and Hebrew.
-- Enhanced usability and user interface to improve user productivity, and
to streamline administration.
-- Improved index and tagging capabilities to help speed search on native
information as well as data feeds.
The new platform will be featured for the over 600 registered attendees expected at the June 5 RSA Archer GRC Summit 2012 in Chicago, IL.
New Product Enhancements
Complementing the improved Archer platform is the availability of new eGRC product developments that include updates to core solutions and the addition of several value-add solutions including:
-- Risk Management: In collaboration with RiskBusiness, an international
risk advisory firm, RSA Archer customers can quickly identify pertinent
risk taxonomy and key risk indicators (KRIs) that can be integrated into
their RSA Archer eGRC framework. Additional updates include the
introduction of risk performance management, risk transfer, multi-layer
risk roll-up, tolerance to risk and a consolidated view of risk.
-- Audit Management: To meet the changing mandates and expectations for
internal audits, RSA Archer now includes a more efficient and
transparent internal audit process, a common platform to help manage
audit planning, prioritization, staffing, procedures and reporting and
the linking of audit planning and results to enterprise risks and
controls.
-- Compliance Management: Solution improvements include better control of
layouts and relationships, historical compliance data capture and
quarterly SOX 302 certifications.
-- PCI Compliance: Performs SAQ assessments and creates compliance report
for PCI 2.0 requirements.
-- Regulatory Change Management: Monitors changes in regulations and
assesses the impact on customer's organization.
