Compliance Management

Document your control framework, assess design and operational effectiveness, and respond to policy and regulatory compliance issues.

Archer Compliance Management provides a centralized, access-controlled environment for automating enterprise compliance processes, assessing deficiencies and managing remediation efforts. This flexible, web-based solution allows you to document process and technical controls and link them to authoritative sources, perform risk-based scoping, execute design and operating tests, perform continuous controls monitoring and respond to identified gaps. You can also report assessment results and remediation activities to senior management and regulators through real-time status and results dashboards. Powered by the Archer SmartSuite Framework, Archer Compliance Management delivers the process efficiencies and global visibility you need to sustain compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley sections 302 and 404, J-SOX, Gramm-Leach-Bliley and other requirements you face.

Through Archer Compliance Management, you can:

  • Document Your Control Framework

    Import your existing control framework, control procedures and test plans, and reuse this information in future assessment periods. Also cycle process and technical controls through the approval process using integrated workflow functionality. Additionally, take advantage of pre-loaded technology baselines from the Archer GRC Content Library to manage regulatory compliance at the technical configuration level.
  • Employ a Risk-Based Scoping Process

    Perform risk-based scoping at the business unit, account or regulation level using a top-down and bottom-up approach. Once the evaluation is complete, the decisions are automatically rolled down to the process and control level, allowing you to determine an efficient and effective testing program.
  • Manage Compliance Assessments

    Deploy continuous, automated assessments and certifications, and inform testers of their work queues via rules-driven emails and “My Tasks” lists. Utilize pre-loaded process control self-assessments, design and operating tests, and technical control manual assessments, or import your own questions to generate new questionnaires in a matter of minutes. Also integrate data from multiple scanning tools to gain a consolidated view into automated control testing processes.
  • Identify Deficiencies and Manage Remediation Plans

    Auto-generate deficiencies based on failures noted within questionnaires and test results, and understand how findings relate to controls, operating entities, and applicable policies, regulations and risks. Also relate multiple findings in the context of a remediation plan to identify larger issues and support informed decision making.
  • Resolve Compliance Deficiencies

    Employ automated workflow and task management capabilities to efficiently resolve compliance deficiencies. The system routes findings and tasks to appropriate personnel, who can respond by completing remediation tasks or logging exception requests that identify effective compensating controls.
  • Report on Compliance Initiatives

    Utilize Archer’s real-time reporting capabilities to form a consolidated picture of compliance efforts and remediation processes. Archer Compliance Management provides an ad hoc reporting interface that allows you to deliver status and alert-type reports to users via dashboards, email or exports in a number of formats.
