CA extends PPM to governance and risk management

Realizing that the technology used for managing IT portfolios is also suited for managing risk, CA is extending its Clarity tool with a new piece aimed at compliance. CA's new IT Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) offering adds new functionality covering risk management and automation of IT governance controls.

In essence, it takes PPM (project portfolio management) a step higher. In place of simply allocating resources to IT project work and maintenance, CA's new tool factors in the kinds of parameters that audit boards request when conducting SOX and similar audits. That encompasses documenting and managing how IT mitigates risk, exercises controls on the sanctity and access to information, and how robust are its processes for enforcing security, managing recoveries, and managing change and configurations.
