CA sets trend

CA's GRC Manager has been named one of KMWorld's "Trend-Setting Products of 2008", says Blocks and Files.

"This year's KMWorld list of trend-setting products has been compiled through briefings with vendors themselves, along with conversations with analysts, users and system integrators," said Hugh McKellar, KMWorld editor-in-chief. "Our mission in choosing this year's products has been deceptively simple: select those that deliver robust customer value."

CA GRC Manager provides a comprehensive solution to address critical risk and compliance initiatives.

Trustwave, provider of on-demand data security and payment card industry compliance management solutions, has acquired ControlPath, says Market Watch.

ControlPath offers compliance software platforms for managing and automating enterprise governance, risk management and compliance (GRC) of multiple regulatory regimes.

The deal has closed and its terms are confidential.

Proventsure, a provider of automated risk assessment and policy audit software, has released its third-generation governance and compliance management suite, says Talent Management.

Proventsure's proprietary and revolutionary patent-pending software discovers regulated information within an organisation and automatically assesses the level of risk to which this information is exposed.

By prioritising information exposure and reporting throughout an organisation, based on probability of loss, remediation efforts are effectively prioritised to proactively mitigate the risk of data loss.
