GRC (governance, risk and compliance)
GRC (governance, risk and compliance) is a way to manage three areas together that are often handled separately: who decides and under which policies, which risks the business faces and which laws and standards it must meet. Integrating them avoids duplicate controls and makes it easier to answer audits, clients and regulators.
