    Integrated GRC & Audit

    One control library, one evidence ledger, continuous audit across every framework.

    Unify risk registers, control libraries, audit programs and third-party risk on iShieldGRC. Controls are mapped many-to-many across ISO 27001, NIST CSF, NCA ECC, SAMA CSF, SOC 2, PCI-DSS and DORA. Link harvests evidence continuously from connected systems.

    What it does

    Core capabilities

    Unified control library

    One control, many frameworks — no duplicated work.

    Continuous evidence

    Auto-collected from cloud, identity, SIEM, ERP, HRIS.

    Audit lifecycle

    Planning, fieldwork, findings, remediation, certification in one place.

    Policy & regulatory change

    Policy lifecycle + horizon scanning fed into impact assessment.

    TPRM

    SIG / CAIQ questionnaires, scoring, residual risk, monitoring.

    What it composes

    Modules included across iShield

    This solution is not a single module — it composes capabilities from across Nexus, Connect, One, Link and iShieldGRC to deliver the outcome.

    Why this composition

    GRC fails when policy, risk, control, audit, issue and regulatory-change live in separate tools. Unified under iShieldGRC with a single control library mapped many-to-many across frameworks, evidence flows once and is reused everywhere — and Link harvests it continuously.

    How it works

    Reference data flow across iShield

    A single record moves across iShield Nexus, Link, One and Connect — with GRC evidence captured at every step.

    1
    iShield Nexus

    Captures the request, ticket, asset or risk record in the workflow engine and CMDB.

    2
    iShield Link

    AI agents enrich, score and route the record under residency, PII and approval guardrails.

    3
    iShield iShieldGRC

    Evidence is harvested and stored against the relevant control to keep audit posture continuous.

    4
    iShield Nexus

    Outcome, SLA and KPI are written back so dashboards and reporting reflect closed-loop reality.

    Why iShield

    How iShield wins this category

    vs ServiceNow

    Sovereign-cloud deployment in KSA and UAE with NCA-aligned key custody — no Azure-region workaround required.

    vs SAP / Oracle

    Workflow-first composable model — no multi-year re-implementation to change a process.

    vs Salesforce

    One platform across CRM, ITSM, GRC and ERP — no per-cloud licensing stack.

    vs Best-of-breed stack

    iShield Link enforces residency, PII and consent across products so guardrails are systemic, not per-tool.
