Approva CEO to Share Controls Intelligence Success Stories at Audit World 2008

Prashanth Boccasam to Share Best Practices in Controls Intelligence Strategies from Fortune 500 Companies

September 02, 2008 - Reston, VA

Approva® Corporation (http://www.approva.net), the leading provider of controls intelligence software, announced today that the company’s CEO, Prashanth “PV” Boccasam, has been invited to talk about how companies are successfully reducing risk by automating the way they monitor controls, at the Audit World 2008 conference. Sponsored by the MIS Training Institute, Audit World is especially known for its focus on providing the audit community with over 50 case studies in five targeted tracks, all designed to deliver tangible solutions and take home strategies. The conference takes places at the Hilton Boston Back Bay from Sep 16th-18th in Boston, MA. 

The biggest challenge that IT security, finance and audit professionals face today is the lack of an end-to-end approach to audit and compliance. Key company resources, human capital and investments amounting to millions of dollars are spent by organizations towards a piecemeal approach where the return on compliance investments is not as high. Boccasam’s session at Audit World is titled, “Best Practices in Implementing Controls Intelligence Solutions for an Integrated GRC Strategy” scheduled for Wednesday, Sep 17th, 4PM – 5PM. This session is focused on helping attendees to:

  • Move from a siloed to an integrated audit compliance strategy
  • Understand the importance of a controls intelligence strategy that gets your management’s attention
  • Learn how three reputed brand names have established GRC best practices to reduce their cost of compliance, streamline audit preparation, and realize substantial business benefits in the process

Approva representatives will also be at Audit World 2008, TABLE #11 to help you identify the controls intelligence strategy that works for your organization.
