eGestalt Launches SecureGRC, a Cloud-based Service that Unifies Security & Regulatory Compliance

June 4, 2010 - PRLog -- SANTA CLARA, Calif. June 1, 2010:  eGestalt Inc. (www.eGestalt.com), a provider of information technology governance, risk management and compliance (IT-GRC) solutions for all enterprises, including small to mid-size organizations, today announced the U.S. availability of SecureGRC™, a patent-pending online enterprise software application that helps to meet regulatory compliance mandates in significantly less time and cost than existing traditional software-based tools. The unified solution provides an ability to address all the enterprise needs around information security, compliance and risk management and provides automation and integration of policy controls to manage security and IT-GRC related issues.

SecureGRC’s on-demand cloud-based, “pay-as-you-grow” subscription service enables up to 10x reduction in total cost of ownership, which is ideal for cost-conscious small and mid-size organizations. 

The combined security monitoring and IT-GRC solution provides automation and integration of policy controls in a ready-to-use framework that includes context-based inference engines, alert processing, logging and monitoring.

“A general problem that many companies have with regard to security and IT-GRC is that they have too many disparate point solutions that are too hard to manage and that fail to provide a holistic view of an organization’s security and compliance posture,” according to Brian Musthaler, Principal Consultant at Essential Solutions Corporation.  “eGestalt’s SecureGRC solution provides the aggregation of information so that a company can see, in near real-time, what its overall profile is.  This allows the company to focus its efforts on mitigating risks to the organization.  And with this being a cloud-based solution, even small to medium-sized organizations can get the benefit of enhanced security and IT-GRC without making a large capital investment.”
SecureGRC comprises the following ready-to-use compliance control kits: PCI-DSS 1.2, ISO 27001/27002, Cobit, Sarbanes Oxley (SOX), HIPAA, Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), and other country specific frameworks that are ready to use out-of-the-box.  Forthcoming is support for: BASEL II and FISMA.

The key differentiators for the SecureGRC solution are as follows:
Advanced business risk management  - by unifying risks through non-compliance and effective security monitoring
Scalable and extensible framework  - can be customized to enterprise-specific needs with built-in support for a large number of regulatory frameworks
“Pay as you Grow” consumption model - Delivered via a cloud-based SaaS offering
Dramatic reduction in TCO: Up to 10x reduction in TCO, better economics than any other available solution

eGestalt Co-Founder and President Anupam Sahai said, “SecureGRC is the world’s first truly leading integrated IT compliance and security management solution for enterprises. Using a patent-pending solution, this unique approach to unifying information security and IT-GRC will lead to better compliance policy implementation since the monitoring and vulnerability analysis tools provide an unprecedented fine-grained view into the vulnerabilities that exist in the enterprise and helps in effective threat detection and business risk estimation, simplifying regulatory compliance.”
