Join PwC for a webcast to find out what companies can do to transform their Segregation of Duties and Sensitive Access (SOD/SA) ruleset to enhance the value to their organization.

Many organizations are surprised and frustrated to learn that just implementing SAP GRC Access Risk Analysis does not resolve your SOD/SA issues. Achieving a clean state requires the customization of the SOD/SA ruleset to address your risks; and based on our experience, this is one of the trickiest things to do when implementing GRC Access Control. Many organizations struggle with doing this effectively, resulting in surprise audit findings due to gaps in the rules, and too often rulesets are being defined to meet the auditor's requirements in order to 'pass' the audit rather than address the access risk within the organization.

This webcast will provide you with techniques to enable you to:

  • Reduce the costs of compliance by way of making the access reports your business uses more accurate and meaningful
  • Reduce the cost and time lag for users obtaining new access though proactive, tailored analysis
  • Reduce administrative cost by ensuring that roles and users introduced to the system are compliant from the start
  • Reduce audit surprises through proper use of mitigating controls and establishing procedures to keep current

We hope you can join PwC for this webcast so that we can share ideas on how you can optimize your ruleset from both a compliance and risk perspective.
