Drivers: for Adopting New GRC Technology 
OCEG SURVEY • 2014 GRC Technology Strategy Survey • www.OCEG.org HOW ORGANIZATIONS APPROACH AND ADAPT THEIR TECHNOLOGY STRATEGY FOR GRC 
INCREASE ANALYTICS & RAPID VISIBILITY OF RISK 
Complex risk and regulatory environments demand advanced capabilities of risk data integration and analytics to provide full situational awareness of risk” 
#1 
IMPROVE CONSISTENCY OF INFORMATION Organizations are realizing that good GRC requires good information, there is increasing focus on the integrity and consistency of GRC information” 
#2 
MEET NEW REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS 
Regulatory change has more than doubled in several industries over the past five years (e.g., banking, insurance, healthcare) and drives the organization to GRC technologies that enable regulatory intelligence and agility” 
#3 
REDUCE COSTS & IMPROVE PERFORMANCE When deploying new GRC technologies the organization is driven to reduce costs while increasing the performance of business operations”

About ICE
Background 
13 
Client Background 
•ICE (runs PeopleSoft) located in Atlanta 
•PeopleSoft is hosted off-premise by a Hosting Provider 
•ICE recently acquired NYSE, (run Oracle EBS) 
•EBS is hosted on premise in New York 
Oracle Advanced Controls 
•Needed a solution to address operational and compliance needs 
•Goal to implement by summer 2014 
•Needed a partner to navigate their complex IT environment and implement a right-sized, sustainable, scalable solution 
•Decided to implement an on premise Advanced Controls Environment
Requirements 
14 
EBS Visibility 
Having recently acquired NYSE, ICE wanted to gain visibility into the risks, controls and transactions within their EBS environment. 
PeopleSoft Visibility 
Access, configurations and transactions were difficult to manage with standard PeopleSoft functionality alone. 
Operational Efficiency 
The business needed to analyze certain risky transactions on a periodic basis, and was stuck with ad- hoc queries written by IT and manual investigation in the ERP systems. 
Controls Automation 
ICE was looking to drive automated control over access and configurations to improve the efficiency of their internal and external audits. 
Scalability 
Given the extent of integration and expansion that is and will be going on at ICE over the next several years, the solution had to be scalable to accommodate future change. 
Audit Support 
Build a sustainable automated solution that could evaluate security, segregation of duties, automated controls and transactional activity to support Internal and External Audits.
Solutions 
15 
The right Collaboration 
PwC worked with ICE to help create a tailored, right-sized solution to their operational and compliance needs. 
Business, internal audit, and IT stakeholder involvement was a key success factor from requirements gathering through implementation. 
Transactions 
Led by the business, the stakeholders identified 22 ways they could use TCG to improve exception-based transaction reporting. 
This was narrowed down to 18 key requirements for Phase I across 5 business and IT processes. 
Security & Segregation of Duties 
The stakeholders identified 98 ways they could use AACG to address existing operational and compliance concerns. 
This was narrowed down to 61 key requirements for Phase I across 8 business and IT processes. 
Configuration Mgmt. 
In a discussion driven by IT, the stakeholders identified 141 opportunities for continuous configuration monitoring using CCG. 
This was narrowed down to 130 key requirements for Phase I across 7 business and IT processes.

What’s Next?

Controls Operation 
RMB Integration 
EBS Migration 
Future Expansion 
Business process control owners have already began operating their monthly and quarterly access and transaction controls, and system administrators are continuing to investigate configuration changes as they occur. 
PwC is implementing Oracle Revenue Management and billing as ICE’s optimized billing solution, and will build custom connectors to allow RMB to interface with billing rules that will be implemented into Advanced Controls. 
In 2015, ICE will begin to migrate NYSE from EBS into ICE’s PeopleSoft environment. This will require consideration of the impact to Advanced Controls and may require changes to existing rules. 
As ICE becomes more comfortable with Advanced Controls capabilities and their existing solution, there will be opportunities to expand their use of the applications and increase the value they derive from it.
