GRC Tool

A GRC (Governance, Risk, and Compliance) tool is a software platform that helps organizations manage governance frameworks, identify and assess risks, and demonstrate compliance with regulatory requirements. These tools centralize policy management, audit trails, control monitoring, and reporting across an enterprise, making it easier for teams to track compliance status and maintain documentation. For AI governance specifically, GRC tools are essential for managing AI-related risks, documenting model decisions, maintaining audit logs, and proving adherence to regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, and emerging AI laws.
