Alpha Data, the UAE's leading multi-disciplined systems integrator, hosted a special round table on governance, risk and compliance (GRC) in Abu Dhabi. The event, attended by select enterprises, was supported by Cura Software Solutions,South Africa's largest GRC software provider and regarded as one of five global leaders in Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) by Forrester and Gartner.
Alpha Data recently signed a new vendor partnership with Cura Software to provide enterprises and government entities in the UAE with easy to understand electronic checklists for compliance with all current and new Acts and Regulations, thus enabling compliance officers to manage areas of non-compliance immediately and effectively.
Fayez Ibbini, Alpha Data's Managing Director, said, "As UAE's public and enterprise sectors take a closer look at their networks and procedures in line with global standards and best practices, it becomes necessary for senior management to keep track of these changes. We are very pleased to partner with Cura and provide a solution that can now monitor and ensure compliance, efficiently."
Cura Software Solutions will leverage Alpha Data's extensive knowledge of up-to-the minute UAE legislation and its interpretation of GRC regulations to help enterprises keep on track with its ERM offerings.
Karl Campbell, Cura Software's Vice President, said, "Cura is proud to partner with Alpha Data in the UAE. Alpha Data's local knowledge and experience are vital for the localisation of Cura's Enterprise Risk Management solution; ensuring best of class fit and ROI for our customers."
