Managing Risk Within Oracle Cloud

Internal audit controls requirements are constantly evolving at a rapid pace. The reality today is that many companies have not automated their controls monitoring and still depend on many manual reviews and labor-intensive offline activities. These tasks tend to be disconnected, inefficient, and costly. For organizations to operate effectively in today’s fast-paced world and address more meaningful issues, they need to have a way to identify and manage risks quickly while delivering practical audit results efficiently. Oracle Risk Management Cloud (RMC) provides an automated way to manage risks effectively, prevent audit findings, and meet compliance mandates.

What is Oracle Risk Management Cloud?

Oracle Risk Management Cloud is a product within Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP, which automates analysis, monitoring and control of ERP security, configurations, and transactions. It uses modern data science and AI techniques to help design secure roles, resolve SoD conflicts, monitor sensitive configurations, and detect suspicious transactions to protect against payment fraud and error.

Oracle Risk Management Cloud consists of three main areas:

• Financial Reporting Compliance: Digitize SOX and internal audit through streamlined internal assessments, risk analysis, evaluations, and compliance. Share real-time dashboards with stakeholders.
• Advanced Financial Controls: Automated monitoring of financial transactions, detect suspicious activity with best practice controls, eliminate exposure and loss of sensitive data, and monitor audit trail of changes to critical configurations and master data. Automated workflow eliminates manual compliance tasks that rely on spreadsheets and ensures owners get notified when a configuration change occurs so you can act as soon as possible.
• Advanced Access Controls: Ensure segregation of duties, continuously monitor user security, and certify user access to sensitive data and privileges. Organizations can minimize access risk by ensuring any new user granted access is reviewed and certified. Flexibility to configure or tailor prebuilt SoD rules with an easy-to-use visual workbench.
