Test whether your controls actually protect the business
Evaluate if your controls are well-designed to mitigate risks, comply with regulatory requirements, and generate reliable evidence. Identify weaknesses in their design before they generate critical incidents.
Identify gaps in your controls. Get practical recommendations to design solid controls and manage them efficiently with growGRC.
70% of organizational controls evaluated by growGRC are not optimized, 42% are poorly designed, $1.2M USD in hidden operational costs and regulation penalties annually.

Why evaluate your controls?
Avoid Audit Findings
Poorly designed controls are the leading cause of security incidents and audit non-conformities.
Sustainable & Efficient
Controls must be scalable and easy to maintain over time to avoid becoming organizational bottlenecks.
Cost-Efficiency vs Risk
Optimize resource allocation by ensuring control efforts are perfectly proportional to the risk level.
Eliminate False Security
Identify and close logical gaps that create a dangerous false sense of safety while leaving risks exposed.
Minimize Operational Load
Smart designs prevent unnecessary operational burdens that slow down business without adding real value.

A control is a process, policy, or practice implemented by an organization to mitigate a specific risk and ensure business objectives are met.
What is a control design evaluation?+
It's the process of verifying if a control, as described, is logically capable of mitigating its associated risk if executed as planned.
Which frameworks are supported?+
While we mention major standards like ISO and SOC 2, the semantic engine evaluates general control quality applicable to any international framework.
