Sub Certification
Sub Certification applications are used to allow management to confirm the controls
within processes that they are responsible for. Such tools include Hyperion Close
Process Manager.
Process Management Applications
These applications are used to provide the pivot point for the risk analysis and
management accountability. Largely, these are the processes within the applications
themselves. The process may be orchestrated through Oracle Workflow as in the case
of purchase order approval or journal approval.
Content Management Applications
These applications are used to provide evidence store for unstructured information.
They also provide a store for standard working papers and completed working
papers that have been part of the testing activity.
Identity and Authorization Management
Applications
These applications are used to provide authentication of users, accountability for
their actions in the system, and authorization to information assets required to do
their jobs.
Our case study
In order to ensure that we keep ourselves grounded in real problems, we have
written the topic as a journal of a ictional company establishing its governance
processes. We will introduce managers and directors responsible for various
aspects of the governance, risk, and compliance problem and where that problem
is exposed and how it is addressed in the technology and business applications.
