Acuity launches Applications for ISO 27001:2013 and Supply Chain Risk Management

Nov. 13, 2013 - PRLog -- With businesses facing increasing pressure from

customers, regulators and auditors to demonstrate better compliance, manage risk and provide

assurance, Acuity has announced the release of two new applications for its popular STREAM

Integrated Risk Manager software.

Acuity’s new STREAM ISO 27001 application is designed to help users comply and gain

certification to ISO 27001:2013, using the full range of STREAM’s dashboarding and graphical

reporting to measure, monitor and report on compliance with the latest ISO standard. Originally

published in 2005 and updated in September 2013 by the International Organisation for

Standardisation, ISO 27001 is the recognized global standard for information security management.

Information is available at http://www.acuityrm.com/store/iso-27001-application-content.

In response to growing demand for greater visibility and assurance that company supply chains are

not a source of unacceptable risk, Acuity has also released its new Supply Chain Risk Management

application. As part of the popular STREAM Integrated Risk Manager software, users can model their

supply chain and benefit from enhanced decision making, though visibility of supplier compliance and

levels of risk. Information is available at

http://www.acuityrm.com/store/supply-chain-risk-managemen....

STREAM scales seamlessly from a single-user edition to an Enterprise-wide, multi-user edition and

can be accessed via a web browser, mobile device including iPad, iPhone and Android, or traditional

client–server architecture. It can be deployed in-house or provided as a hosted SaaS service

and a free single-user edition is available to help users get started.

STREAM customers include BP, United Nations, CSC Computer Sciences, Siemens, The Cooperative Banking

Group, Fujitsu Services and the Department for Education. “Risk management is a core

competence for any public or private sector organisation,” said Simon Marvell, Partner at

Acuity Risk Management. “STREAM is designed to support integrated risk and compliance

applications such as information security, supply chain risk, health & safety and environmental

management, as well as provide a holistic, multi-application Enterprise Risk Management (ERM)

solution. Organisations that rely on manual processes and spreadsheets can migrate these time

consuming risk and compliance processes into STREAM and also interface with third party solutions to

maximise return on investment.”

The free single-user edition of STREAM Integrated Risk Manager V3.0 is available for download from

the Acuity website www.acuityrm.com.

A new STREAM application for the recently released Payment Card Industry – Data Security
