Those of you who have met Kim Jones and me, either from our PwC days or since we've founded Visual Risk IQ, know that we believe that the IT Research community has not done a great job of defining categories within Governance, Risk and Compliance software. Even the Continuous Controls Monitoring category had everything from Segregation of Duties tools like Virsa (now SAP-GRC) to IT General Control Tools (like TripWire) to more general purpose CCM tools like those from ACL, Apex, Approva, and Oversight.
But now in 2009, the Research community is getting better. Maybe much better. Gartner has published a new report on the segment of the GRC category that we specialize in, and they have named the category "Continuous Controls Monitoring for Transactions, or CCM-T" We believe this segmentation does a MUCH better job of identifying the vendors who are in this cateogory.
The report separates CCM-T from other CCM technologies, like Segregation of Duties tools, Application Controls, and Master Data tools. For a copy of the report, register on ACL's web site and download the Gartner CCM-T Report
Take a look and tell us what you think, either by commenting below, sending an email or seeing us in person. Look for Visual Risk IQ at IIA's GAM conference or at MISTI's SuperStrategies, where we will be a sponsor and speaker on Thursday morning April 16.
