New versions of SAP GRC solutions

SAP announced new versions of several Governance, Risk & Compliance solutions at the recent GRC2008 conference. (the conference itself was very good by the way. I had the opportunity to co-present the Jumpstart day as well as an EPM/GRC presentation with our partner Protiviti). Hope that folks don't take this as blatant shilling, but these are the solutions that I spend my days (and nights/weekends) talking about. There's a link to the press release, but here are a couple of things that I personally think are cool:

SAP GRC Access Control 5.3
  • This is SAP's Segregation of Duties management solution. Originally part of the Virsa acquisition, SAP has released several versions and enhancements in the last couple of years. For those who think that SAP only focuses on SAP ERP customers, note that this version brings more provisioning functionality to Oracle, JDE and Peoplesoft customers.
SAP GRC Process Control 2.5
  • SAP's internal controls management solution, Process Control along with Access Control can be used to automate SOX compliance.
  • This solutions allows for testing and monitoring of both manual and automatic controls.
SAP GRC Risk Management
  • This solution is based on the tool that SAP uses internally in its own Enterprise Risk Management program.
  • This version has integration to SAP Strategy Management thus bringing together Enterprise Performance Management and GRC.
SAP GRC Global Trade Services 7.2
