What is SAP GRC?

Full name

SAP Governance, Risk & Compliance

Category

Security & Governance

Typical roles

SAP GRC Consultant, SAP Access Control Specialist, SoD Analyst

SAP Governance, Risk and Compliance supports access risk management and control processes. SAP Access Control scenarios include segregation-of-duties analysis, access requests and emergency access.

A ruleset flags potential conflicts; business owners must validate actual risks and compensating controls.

A practical SAP GRC engagement begins with an inventory of the installed product and release, affected business processes, connected systems and decision-makers. From there, the team can define scope, data and integration requirements, testing responsibilities and a realistic transition or support plan.
