Understanding the connection between GRC and cybersecurity. While cybersecurity focuses on the technical side of protecting systems, networks, devices, and data, GRC is the tool that will help the entire organization understand and communicate how to do it.
From a GRC standpoint, companies can achieve data quality by creating rules and policies so the entire organization can use that data in the same ways. How GRC empowers organizations achieve high-quality data.
Consider how the pandemic - a health and safety risk - created a downstream impact that opened the door for related risks: IT risks associated with remote work, corruption related to supply chain issues, and workforce management issues. The conversation around ESG - environmental, social and governance - in risk management has grown in recent years and shows no signs of slowing down.
To select a suitable GRC solution for your business, you need to think about a variety of factors. When organizations try to select an enterprise or standalone GRC solution or a number of solutions to use in concert, a few key elements are worth deep discussion: how the solution(s) fits into overall IT strategy, what the desired use of the solution(s) is and how the solution(s) can help digitally transform the organization's cyber GRC efforts.

Every GRC program should be tailored to the needs and frameworks of the organization, whether they seek most to comply with industry and privacy regulations or to reduce corporate risk to protect customer data or infrastructure.
Microsoft and SES, in partnership with GovSat and UK-based solutions provider GRC, came together to demonstrate how Microsoft Azure Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence capabilities can be brought directly to end-users deployed globally in a highly secure, reliable way while maintaining network sovereignty - allowing users to exploit key Azure workloads regardless of location and drastically boosting the efficiency of critical missions. In these demonstrations the Azure Stack Mini R device was connected to a quick deployable tactical satcom terminal from GRC through the secure SATCOM connection on GovSat-1 satellite, and sent directly to Azure UK via the SES Cloud Direct service, giving connected and disconnected access to Azure services.
